Dicaprylyl Ether is created from caprylic acid. It is a texture-enhancer and emollient.
Ethylhexyl Salicylate is an organic compound used to block UV rays. It primarily absorbs UVB rays but offers a small amount of UVA protection as well.
2 Concerns
Ethylhexyl Triazone is a modern chemical sunscreen that protects from UV-B radiation.
You might know this ingredient as Tinosorb S or Bemotrizinol. It is a UV filter that covers both UVA and UVB rays.
This ingredient is more commonly known as Ensulizole, a chemical sunscreen ingredient.
Glycerin is already naturally found in your skin. It helps moisturize and protect your skin.
Undecane is an emollient and helps create a lightweight base for products.
