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 WaterDimethicone is a type of synthetic silicone created from natural materials such as quartz.
What it does:
Dimethicone comes in different viscosities:
Depending on the viscosity, dimethicone has different properties.
Ingredients lists don't always show which type is used, so we recommend reaching out to the brand if you have questions about the viscosity.
This ingredient is unlikely to cause irritation because it does not get absorbed into skin. However, people with silicone allergies should be careful about using this ingredient.
Note: Dimethicone may contribute to pilling. This is because it is not oil or water soluble, so pilling may occur when layered with products. When mixed with heavy oils in a formula, the outcome is also quite greasy.
Learn more about DimethiconePhenoxyethanol is a preservative that has germicide, antimicrobial, and aromatic properties. Studies show that phenoxyethanol can prevent microbial growth. By itself, it has a scent that is similar to that of a rose.
It's often used in formulations along with Caprylyl Glycol to preserve the shelf life of products.

É um protetor bem hidratante. Eu suo muito, talvez por isso não tenha sido meu fav apesar da fórmula limpa com ótimos ativos. Principal motivação na escolha foi a ser seguro para fungal acne.
The best moisturizer with SPF. I always use this when my skin barrier is broken and I don’t want to skip SPF. Most chemical sunscreen stings when my skin barrier is broken

Love love love this sunscreen. By far my favorite sunscreen I’ve ever tried. Layers like a light moisturizer and sits so naturally- not greasy at all!
Too drying for me but tolerable enough. I liked that it didn't leave a white cast on my skin. That's about it.
