Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
This 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.

Supergoop! Unseen Sunscreen SPF 40 26 ingredients
Really liked this product, except for one problem - it stings my eyes like crazy.
It applies really nicely and absorbs well into my skin, but after a few hours of wearing this sunscreen I start getting extreme eye stinging.
I've since moved to using Supergoop's Mineral Sheerscreen, so I think it is one of the chemical filters in this one that causes my eyes to sting.

This is the perfect sunscreen for people who want a low maintenance morning. Feels greasy putting it on, but once on you cant tell you have sunscreen on. after one minute after application theres no scent, no feel, no sheen. Absolute love

Very oily , need to mix with something in order to tone down the oiliness
