Summer in New Zealand doesn’t stay in one place. One minute you’re at the beach, sand still between your toes, and the next you’re headed straight to dinner or drinks. It’s the kind of season that demands flexibility – and a beauty routine that can keep up. Enter Bondi Sands’ new Sunny range – the compact, fuss-free, handbag-friendly SPF line that’s designed for real life under the sun.
Already making waves overseas (Alex Cooper from Call Her Daddy gave it her seal of approval), this skin-first suncare collection recently landed on Kiwi shelves – and it’s about to become your new summer staple.
Skin-first suncare that actually feels good
We’ve all had that moment where you know you should wear SPF every day, but the thought of that heavy, sticky, breakout-inducing sunscreen just makes you hesitate. Bondi Sands clearly got the memo. The Sunny range isn’t just sun protection – it’s skincare that protects. Every formula is infused with ingredients your skin actually loves, like Vitamin E and Australian Hibiscus, to hydrate and nourish while guarding against UVA and UVB rays.
The lineup covers every base – literally. There are lightweight drops, dreamy creams, and even a luscious lip balm (because yes, your lips can sunburn too). It’s designed to slot seamlessly into your existing beauty routine – layer it under makeup, wear it solo, or toss it in your bag for a quick reapply between brunch and beach.
For your face, not against it
The Face range comes with Complexion Protection™ – Bondi Sands’ way of saying “no clogged pores here.” The formulas are oil-free, non-comedogenic, and dermatologically tested, so they won’t mess with your skin barrier or cause irritation. Think calm, clear, invisible protection that blends in effortlessly – no white cast, no greasiness, no excuses.
Body care that does the heavy lifting
When you’re out chasing waves or sipping rosé in the sun, the Body Serum has your back (and shoulders, and legs). With up to four hours of water resistance, it’s built for summer days that last longer than your phone battery.
Affordable, premium, and made for every day
Bondi Sands has always been about making sun safety second nature, and Sunny is no exception. Their research showed what most of us already know – the biggest reason people skip daily SPF is the texture or the fear of breakouts. So they fixed that, creating luxe-feeling formulas that don’t cost a fortune or clog your pores.
The new Bondi Sands Sunny range is available now at Chemist Warehouse, Farmers, Life Pharmacy, and online.
