Tired of heavy sunscreens that mess up your makeup or leave a whitecast? Skincare brand Celeteque hears you.
On 29 July, Celeteque launched its latest Skin Defense line at the Celeteque Skin Defense Lab in Avire Tower, Quezon City. Guests stepped into an interactive lab experience and got up close with science-backed sun care.
This newest lineup is designed to meet the needs of Filipinas dealing not only with sun exposure but also with the harsh realities of city life such as pollution, blue light, and humidity. What makes the products different is their skin-nourishing formula and wearability for all skin types and tones.
“Reducing water losses in a highly complex and aged network like ours requires long-term investment and continuous innovation. This milestone underscores our commitment to enhancing operational efficiency and achieving our NRW targets,” said Maynilad Central NRW Head Engr. Ryan Jamora.
At the launch, guests explored themed stations that showcased how each product works. The Glow Guard Station tested the brightening effect of the Silky Sun Cream. The Sun Shield Station showed off the SPF power of the new sun stick. The Skin Booster Station demonstrated the matte finish of Celeteque’s Soft Matte Moisturizer. Speakers from the brand’s research team and dermatology expert Dr. Francesca Sy-Alvarado also walked guests through the science behind the products.
The line now includes three sun care options that give users more control depending on their skin goals.
The new Brightening Silky Sun Cream SPF60 (Php570, 40ml) is a water-based and alcohol-free hybrid sunscreen. It is infused with niacinamide, vitamin C, and six hydrating moisturizers for a fresh, even skin tone. According to Celeteque, “The harsh tropical heat may cause discoloration or unevenness in the Filipina skin, this sun cream helps address this by not only shielding your skin from high UV, but helps in evening out your skin tone and fading dark marks caused by overexposure to heat.”
The Invisishield Mattifying Sun Stick SPF60 (Php630, 20g) is for those who need fuss-free protection on the go. It contains ceramides to help retain moisture and defend against irritants, plus rice and soybean extracts for natural protection. “With its lightweight, invisible, and non-sticky finish, it’s a handy tool you can put in your bag for quick reapplication throughout the day, minus the mess.”
Finally, the Soft Matte Moisturizer SPF57 (Php430, 50ml) combines moisture and shine control, making it ideal for humid days. The brand notes, “While this chemical sunscreen reduces excess oil from the face, it still retains your skin’s plumpness with ingredients like glycerin and hydrolyzed rhodophyceae extract (also known as Pollution SmartBloc) that help strengthen the skin barrier and provide antioxidant properties.”
All three are crafted to guard against UVA and UVB rays, digital pollution, and environmental stress while staying light and breathable on the skin.
With its #SunAndPollutionProof promise, Celeteque aims to help every Filipina step outside with confidence. No heavy layers, no sticky feel, just smart skin defense that works.
