Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.
So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.
You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!
Learn more about WaterAlso known as Avobenzone, this ingredient is a chemical sunscreen filter that provides protection in the UV-A range.
Avobenzone is globally approved and is the most commonly used UV-A filter in the world.
Studies have found that avobenzone becomes ineffective when exposed to UV light (it is not photostable; meaning that it breaks down in sunlight). Because of this, formulations that include avobenzone will usually contain stabilizers such as octocrylene.
However, some modern formulations (looking at you, EU!) are able to stabilize avobenzone by coating the molecules.
Avobenzone does not protect against the UV-B range, so it's important to check that the sunscreen you're using contains other UV filters that do!
The highest concentration of avobenzone permitted is 3% in the US, and 5% in the EU.

It's often used in formulations along with Caprylyl Glycol to preserve the shelf life of products.

Note: Initial product review upon receipt/1st try.
Skin: Oily-shiny
Cons: I was wrong. The finish is way too dewy to be matte. I've tested out my serums and they typically dry down to skin-finish.
Pros: The sunscreen is cool despite not really being anywhere cold. Kinda refreshing. Best I can attribute to this sunscreen is that it doesn't pill. However, as mentioned, I need to reduce the Show more
Works well as a sunscreen, I’m using the tinted variant (shade 02) and it is okay for me because i mostly spend my time inside but it gets slightly oily when i’m outside (Philippines’ climate 🫣). There’s better spfs out there.
