Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.

Silica is often used for absorption and can help reduce shine when products are applied. Silica occurs in naturally in materials like clay and sandstone, and it can also be produced synthetically.
Silica is present naturally within the skin during collagen production and when reducing inflammation.

Here's what our community thinks
Bioderma Photoderm Nude Touch SPF 50+ 30 ingredients
I think it was the worst sunscreen I ever tried (sorry).
Reasons:
- It's so liquid that it runs everywhere when it's being applied;
- Even though it says it's for oily skin types, it has some kind of oil in it (it never dries). Oil-Control WHERE?!;
- It's a color sunscreen, but you need to be carefull to not touch with your face ANYWHERE (hands, clothes, your boyfriend). It transfers so Show more
