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!

According to EU regulation, this ingredient can cause harmful effects to aquatic life.

Glycerin has also been found to have antimicrobial and antiviral properties. Due to these properties, glycerin is often used in wound and burn treatments.

When applied to the skin, this ingredient creates an invisible film on the surface. This film still allows oxygen to pass through, but prevents moisture from escaping. This can help condition and hydrate the skin. It also leaves a silky feel when applied.
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.

I love this product it works for Tanish to pale people it is sticky and shiny and how I fix that is I rub it in for a minutes wash get my hands washed and then I get a face wet then lightly rub each area of my face on a towel that way I still have sunscreen on my face protecting it but then it won’t feel sticky and super shiny but if it still feels sticky add a tiny bit of water again and do that Show more
Good sunscreen but leaves my skin looking greasy
All in all it is a good sunscreen with dewy finish, but from my experience, it left my skin looking rather greasy than just glowing most of the days. Occasionally it would look fine, but still very shiny. Unfortunately also a slight stinging in the eyes. Probably wont buy again, not sure if I even manage to finish the tube. But what doesn't work for Show more
