For many, sunscreen still feels like a summer ritual - applied before a beach day, skipped on cloudy mornings. But sun protection isn’t seasonal. It’s the quiet, consistent layer your skin needs daily -and not all sunscreens are built equally.
Lumishield by Long Story isn’t just SPF. It’s science-forward skincare powered by next-generation encapsulation technology - designed for protection, comfort, and long-term care, especially for Indian skin.
THE PROBLEM WITH TRADITIONAL SUNSCREENS
Heavy textures. Greasy finishes. White cast. Or worse, breakouts and irritation. Most sunscreens sit directly on your skin, where they degrade quickly under sunlight, requiring constant reapplication. And if you have melanin-rich or sensitive skin, the challenge is even bigger - finding SPF that protects without triggering pigmentation or clogging pores. That’s exactly what Lumishield set out to solve with intention and innovation.
THE POWER OF ENCAPSULATION: SUN FILTERS, REIMAGINED
At the core of Lumishield lies its encapsulation technology - a delivery system that wraps UV filters in microscopic, water-based spheres. Unlike traditional formulas that deposit actives directly on your skin, encapsulation acts like a protective bubble around each filter.
Here’s why that matters:
- Uniform Dispersion : The filters are distributed evenly across the skin surface, creating a smooth, consistent barrier that protects every inch - no patches, no residue.
- Controlled Release for Prolonged Protection : The encapsulated filters are released slowly over time, maintaining stable SPF coverage throughout the day. That means less photo-degradation, more reliability, even under intense Indian sun.
- Gentle on Sensitive Skin : Since the filters don’t directly contact your skin, there’s less risk of irritation, redness, or inflammation - ideal for reactive, acne-prone, or melanin-rich skin that’s more prone to post-inflammatory pigmentation.
- Enhanced Sensory Experience : Encapsulation also improves the feel of the product - making it lighter, non-greasy, and free from the chalky white cast so many SPF products leave behind.
WATER-BASED. WEIGHTLESS. NON-COMEDOGENIC
Lumishield’s water-based formulation sets it apart. Where traditional SPFs rely on heavy oils or occlusives, this formula feels breathable and fresh. It:
- Spreads easily
- Dries down fast
- Doesn’t clog pores
- Works seamlessly under makeup
SPF DESIGNED FOR INDIA’S CLIMATE - AND YOUR SKIN
India’s UV index is high year-round. Whether you’re in the sun for minutes or hours, UVA and UVB rays are working overtime - damaging collagen, triggering pigmentation, and accelerating signs of ageing.

- Built with next-gen encapsulation for smarter sun care
- Balanced for Indian skin and weather
