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 does this by:
The pH of ecamsule needs to be neutralized due to it being an acid. Triethanolamine is a pH adjusting ingredient often used with ecamsule.
This sunscreen ingredient is approved for use in the EU, Canada, and Asia. In the US, ecamsule is approved only for use in sunscreen formulations. This is due to the US considering sunscreen as an OTC drug instead of a cosmetic.

Polymethylsilsesquioxane has not been shown to clog pores. It has been deemed safe to use up to 55%, but most cosmetics use much less.
If you have concerns about using this ingredient, we recommend speaking with a professional.

Niacinamide has emerged as an all-star ingredient due to its many benefits.
It is known to treat acne by reducing inflammation. It also helps fade dark-spots and strengthen the skin by promoting the growth of the ceramide barrier.
Other benefits include smoothing wrinkles and minimizing redness.
The cherry on top? Niacinamide can also help build keratin, a protein that keeps skin firm.
When incorporating niacinamide into your routine, look out for concentration amounts. Typically, 5% niacinamide provides benefits such as fading dark spots. However, if you have sensitive skin, it is better to begin with a smaller concentration.
Niacinamide can be mixed with other ingredients to boost benefits. For instance, it has shown to be effective when used with copper, folic acid, and zinc to treat acne.

Tromethamine is an aliphatic compound. An aliphatic compound is an organic compound with open-chained carbon atoms. It is synthetically created. Tromethamine is used to balance pH and improve texture.
As an emulsifier, Tromethamine prevents oil and water ingredients from separating. This helps stabilize the product and elongate a product's shelf life. Tromethamine also makes a product thicker.
Tromethamine helps balance the pH level of a product. Normal pH level of skin is slightly acidic (~4.75-5.5). The acidity of our skin is maintained by our glands and skin biome. Being slightly acidic allows our skin to create an "acid mantle". This acid mantle is a thin barrier that protects our skin from bacteria and contaminants.
Oral Tromethanmine is an anti-inflammatory drug but plays the role of masking, adding fragrance, and/or balancing pH in skincare.

Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate (DHHB) is a chemical UVA absorber. It is formulated for high UVA protection (320-400 nm) and photostability.
DHHB has been approved by the EU, Japan, Taiwan, and South America for use up to 10%.
UV absorbers are an agent that absorbs UV rays. They protect your skin by using chemical reactions to convert UV rays into heat and energy.
UV rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation from the sun. Other sources include tanning beds and welding torches. Radiation is the emission of energy. UV Rays are divided into 3 groups. UVA (320-400 nm) contains the least amount of energy. They are linked to long term skin damage such as wrinkles and hyperpigmentation. UVB (290-320 nm) rays emit more energy than UVA rays. They are capable of damaging DNA in skin cells. UVB causes sunburns and are thought to be linked to skin cancer. UVC (200-280 nm) contains the highest amount of energy. Our ozone blocks UVC. UVC can also originate from welding torches, mercury lamps, and sanitizing bulbs.

I have no words. It's perfect.
This is easily the best sunscreen I've ever tried! It even tops my previous holygrail the Skin1004 sunscreen. The last six months I've been looking for my "forever sunscreen" which is the one I'll keep repurchasing instead of having multiple sunscreens so I've been testing a few, didn't think something would top the Skin1004 sunscreen and then... I tried this. I honestly have no words about how much I love this sunscreen - it's just amazing 🥲 (maybe a bit dramatic for a sunscreen lmao 😂 but seriously it's the best). It's incredibly lightweight and is definitely the fastest absorbing sunscreen I've tried, the ingredients are great and as far as I can tell like most chemical sunscreens it doesn't leave a white cast (take this with a grain of salt I'm practically translucent lol). It layers incredibly well under makeup and doesn't pill, doesn't break me out, and isn't massively expensive (I payed £12 for 50ml). I recommend everybody gives this sunscreen a go, I can see it working for a lot of different skin types and climates. It's the only sunscreen I'll ever purchase from now on, the search is over! 😅
Vxnnn
Like the other comments, I'm just here to say that this sunscreen is indeed THE BEST!! So lightweight, no white cast, and doesn't make me as oily...
Like the other comments, I'm just here to say that this sunscreen is indeed THE BEST!! So lightweight, no white cast, and doesn't make me as oily as other sunscreens I've used! Will forever be repurchasing as long as my skin stays the same.
