While the bespectacled community might not be ready for petrifying contact lens removal contraptions, we certainly could get behind some of these hands-free and ultra convenient products amidst the global pandemic!

Tested under dermatological control for sensitive skin, this spray-on sunscreen is paraben and alcohol free, misting your skin with a pleasant fragrance and light finish. It utilises mattifying micro-particles that immediately absorb and control all sources of shine caused by sebum, sweat and humidity, leaving your skin clean, bacteria-free and most importantly, without the ghastly white cast!
