Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Also 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.

La Roche-Posay Anthelios UVMune 400 Oil Control SPF50+ contains this as ingredient number 9.
Ethylhexyl Triazone is a modern chemical sunscreen that protects from UV-B radiation.
It is the most effective of existing UV-B filters, as it provides the highest level of photo-stable absorption. It protects from the entire UV-B range (280 to 320nm), with it's highest level of protection at 314nm.
Ethylhexyl Triazone is oil soluble, oderless and colorless, which mean it is able to be incorporated into a variety of different formulations.
It is not currently available within the United States due to slow changing FDA regulations. Outside of the US, it is used in formulations at concentrations up to 5%.

I got this on a visit to Paris at an adorable pharmacy right next to the Eiffel Tower and used it for half nearly half a year almost daily, a little goes a long way. I loved the texture, and it didn't leave me feeling overly greasy. I feel it hard to objectively review this one since it has a lot of emotional associations for me now, but it did break me out. The tocopherol really should be avoided if you're acne prone, like me, and the alcohol just inflames me even further. I honestly feel the vitamine E is the larger culprit here though. The 0-3 rating it has feels a bit misleading, knowing it has a stable 2 on cosdna.
