Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.
So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.
You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!
Learn more about WaterThis ingredient is an emollient, solvent, and texture enhancer. It is considered a skin-softener by helping the skin prevent moisture loss.
It helps thicken a product's formula and makes it easier to spread by dissolving clumping compounds.
Caprylic Triglyceride is made by combining glycerin with coconut oil, forming a clear liquid.
While there is an assumption Caprylic Triglyceride can clog pores due to it being derived from coconut oil, there is no research supporting this.
Learn more about Caprylic/Capric TriglycerideTocopheryl Acetate is AKA Vitamin E. It is an antioxidant and protects your skin from free radicals. Free radicals damage the skin by breaking down collagen.
One study found using Tocopheryl Acetate with Vitamin C decreased the number of sunburned cells.
Tocopheryl Acetate is commonly found in both skincare and dietary supplements.

Prequel Sun Barrier Mineral Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 50 PA++++ 43 ingredients
I have sensitive skin, especially with sunscreens. I had one of the worst allergic reactions of my life with this sunscreen. I have no idea what caused it, as I am usually just fine with mineral sunscreens. Definitely recommend patch testing if you are sensitive with sunscreens like I am. Other than that, the finish was beautiful and felt great on my skin at first.
Super lightweight and moisturizing sunscreen!! This is the first sunscreen that has worked so well on my sensitive skin. My new holy grail!!

Its a stick sunscreen so I guess I should have expected a thicker application, but I was still surprised how heavy it felt no matter what other products I used with it or how little/gently I applied. It felt like an occlusive!
I will say, it never irritated me even when my skin was at its most sensitive, which is rare for any other SPF product ive tried. But overall way too heavy for my Show more
