Protecting your skin against UV radiation can prevent the signs of aging. Sun damage is associated with fine-lines, wrinkles, loss of firmness, and hyperpigmentation. Titanium dioxide can help prevent premature aging.
With modern production, nano-scale or fine-grade titanium dioxide can be easily produced for cosmetics. In sunscreen, titanium dioxide absorbs UV light. Our skin is not able to absorb Titanium dioxide, even nanoparticles.
Titanium itself is the 9th most common element in the Earth's crust. Titanium dioxide is formed when oxygen is introduced and can be found in ores, dust, sand, and soil.
Pure titanium dioxide is a white powder that is used in many products to add or change color.

Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate absorbs UVB rays with wavelengths between 280-320 nm. UV absorbers protect your skin by using chemical reactions to convert UV rays into heat and energy.
UVB (290-320 nm) rays emit more energy than UVA rays. They are capable of damaging DNA, causing sunburns and are thought to be linked to skin cancer.
The state of Hawaii has banned sunscreens containing octinoxate due to its potential impact on coral reefs. More research is needed to bridge gaps in this research. The European Union allows higher levels of octinoxate in sunscreens than the US and Australia.
Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate is oil soluble. It is not stable and may lose efficacy when exposed to sunlight.

Worst skincare product I've tried
I could not use this product properly because I had contact dermatitis everytime I put it on my face or tried to use it as hand cream. I believe it might be caused by one of the SPF filters used here that are more old school, less stable and more irritating. On the other hand, beeswax and other emolient ingredients made it very occlusive and greasy, my oily skin could not really handle it well.

Nice glowy and plump skin
I love this sunscreen, I'm on my fourth bottle and still love how it applies. No whitecast, not too sticky (I love the feeling of slightly sticky skin after my routine, makes it feel nourished). I have never gotten a sunburn with this product.
I also have rather oily/combination skin but this sunscreen is one of the few that doesn't make me feel like an oil slick after a full day of wearing it.
There is also almost no smell to it and one bottle can last a very long time ! Will keep repurchasing this !
