Image Skincare Daily Defense Bundle

A gentle vitamin C cleanser paired with a lightweight SPF 50 moisturiser, for skin that's clean, hydrated and protected before you leave the house.

The Image Skincare Daily Defense Bundle pairs the Vital C Hydrating Facial Cleanser 177ml with the Daily Prevention Ultra Defense Moisturiser SPF 50, covering the two steps that matter most in any skincare routine: proper cleansing and daily sun protection. The cleanser is from the Vital C collection, Image's antioxidant range for dull, dehydrated or environmentally stressed skin, and gently lifts away make-up and impurities without stripping the skin. The Daily Prevention moisturiser follows on with broad-spectrum SPF 50 and a lightweight, fast-absorbing finish, so protecting skin from UV exposure becomes a simple two-step habit rather than an extra chore.

·       A vitamin C cleanser and an SPF 50 moisturiser in one simple morning routine

·       Cleanses gently while adding a dose of vitamin C, without leaving skin feeling tight

·       Broad-spectrum SPF 50 that also helps shield skin from blue light emitted by screens

·       Lightweight, fast-absorbing textures that sit comfortably under make-up

How the Vital C Cleanser and Daily Prevention SPF 50 Work

The Vital C Hydrating Facial Cleanser uses a creamy, non-foaming formula with added vitamin C, an antioxidant that helps brighten the look of dull skin, so even the cleansing step contributes to a brighter-looking complexion rather than just removing the day's build-up. The Daily Prevention Ultra Defense Moisturiser then provides broad-spectrum SPF 50 protection using mineral and chemical filters, along with cocoa seed extract to help defend skin against blue light from phones and screens. Together, the two steps give skin a gentle start and a high level of daily defence, which is the most effective long-term step for keeping the look of skin healthy.

Key Ingredients in the Daily Defense Bundle

·       Vitamin C (cleanser) - an antioxidant that helps brighten the look of skin while cleansing

·       SPF 50 filters - broad-spectrum protection against UVA and UVB rays

·       Cocoa seed extract - helps protect the look of skin from blue light exposure

·       Vitamins A and E - help condition skin for a smooth, comfortable feel

Image Vital C and Daily Prevention for a Simple Morning Routine

This bundle suits anyone who wants an effective, no-fuss morning routine without adding several extra steps. It works well for most skin types, since the cleanser is gentle enough for daily use and the SPF moisturiser has a satin, non-greasy finish that sits comfortably under make-up. It's a particularly practical choice for anyone new to a proper skincare routine, or for busy mornings when time is limited.

Image Skincare Daily Defense Bundle: Professional-Grade Skincare

Both products are developed by Image Skincare's team of chemists, working alongside a board of physicians, and are sold through skin professionals as well as pharmacies. Image is a firm favourite in Irish salons and clinics, and daily SPF is consistently recommended by skin therapists as the single most effective step for protecting the look of skin over the long term.

One detail worth knowing: the Daily Prevention Ultra Defense Moisturiser can be used as a stand-alone moisturiser for most skin types, so this bundle can genuinely replace a separate day cream rather than sitting on top of one, which keeps the morning routine down to two simple steps.

Browse the wider Daily Prevention collection for more SPF options, or see the Vital C collection for a matching serum to add into the routine.

·       Massage a small amount of the Vital C cleanser into damp skin morning and evening, then rinse thoroughly

·       Gentle enough to use around the eye area to remove light make-up

·       Apply the Daily Prevention SPF 50 moisturiser as the last step of your morning routine

·       Use a generous amount, covering face and neck evenly, and reapply through the day if you're outdoors for long periods

·       Allow the moisturiser a minute to settle before applying make-up

Where This Bundle Fits in Your Routine

Cleanse first thing in the morning, then apply any treatment serums you use, and finish with the Daily Prevention SPF 50 moisturiser as your last step before make-up or leaving the house. In the evening, use the Vital C cleanser again to remove SPF, make-up and the day's build-up before the rest of your night-time routine.

What to Expect

Skin should feel clean and comfortable straight away, without the tightness that comes from stripping cleansers. The SPF moisturiser absorbs quickly and shouldn't leave a white cast or greasy feel once it has settled. The real benefit of this bundle is long-term: consistent daily SPF use is what makes the biggest difference to how skin looks over months and years, rather than something you'll notice overnight.

Products That Pair Well With This Bundle

·       A vitamin C or brightening serum applied after cleansing and before SPF

·       A hydrating toner if your skin needs an extra layer of moisture

·       An evening moisturiser to use after cleansing at night, once SPF is no longer needed

Patch test on a small area if your skin is prone to reacting, and discontinue use if irritation occurs.
