Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Dicaprylyl Carbonate comes from carbonic acid and caprylyl alcohol, a fatty alcohol. It is an emollient and gives skin a velvet feel. The sources of Dicaprylyl Carbonate may be synthetic or from animals.
As an emollient, Dicaprylyl Carbonate creates a film on the skin. This film traps moisture in, keeping your skin soft and hydrated.

Here's what our community thinks
CeraVe Hydrating Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50 Face Lotion 46 ingredients
works okay as sunscreen but it has a bad white cast and irritates me sometimes
One of the worst I've ever used. Dollar store sunscreen is arguably better. Horrible smell, white caste and just overall a pain and disappointment
Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Sunscreen Spray SPF 30 12 ingredients
Fully fungal safe, no reactions to it ever. Easy to apply. Very available in many stores
