Product Summary

We do not recommend "Aveeno - Protect + Hydrate Face Sunscreen Lotion with SPF 60" because it does not provide good UVA protection. UVA sun rays don't burn the skin, but they still lead to photoaging and hyperpigmentation.

Because it includes good moisturizing ingredients, it can also work as a hydrating day cream.

Sunscreen filters

This sunscreen uses so-called "chemical", or organic UV filters (organic simply means that their molecules contain atoms of carbon). These filters typically give good sun protection and rarely leave a white cast, but they can be irritating for sensitive skin. These are the sun protection ingredients in this sunscreen: butyloctyl salicylate 6.60% - 10.00%.

Irritation risk

There are some common irritants in this product, including ingredients that do not have benefits for the skin. We assess the overall irritancy of this moisturizer to be medium. For a detailed overview of all potential irritants: click here

Protect + Hydrate Face Sunscreen Lotion with SPF 60

Source: From product name

This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.

The first type is called “humectants”:
these ingredients help attract water. When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from within deeper layers of the skin. The following ingredients in this product do the job: glycerin.

This product also contains ingredients called “occlusives”. They help reduce the speed with which our skin loses moisture to the outside environment. These ingredients also help soften the upper layer of the skin, so it feels less tight and nicer to the touch. The following ingredients in this product do the job: dimethicone, glyceryl stearate.

Dimethicone1.3% - 1.9%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:HIGH

A silicone that helps to reduce water loss from the surface of the skin. Can temporarily "fill in" lines and wrinkles, absorb oil, and create a nice product finish

Glycerin3.7% - 5.5%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:HIGH

One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant

Caprylyl methicone1.7% - 2.5%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:LOW

A type of silicone that helps to soften the upper layer of the skin and create a nice product finish on the skin

Pentylene glycol0.55% - 1.25%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:LOW

Used to preserve products, dissolve other ingredients and create a nice product texture

Glyceryl stearate0.35% - 0.8%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:LOW

An emollient that softens the skin and forms a protective layer on its surface. Helps water and oil mix together

Avena sativa kernel extract0.05% - 0.25%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Insufficient!

An effective moisturizing and skin barrier repair ingredient. Helps calm down inflammation and has some anti-oxidant properties

Anti-aging

This product does not contain ingredients that are able to reduce fine lines and wrinkles or help with skin elasticity, but it can improve the look of the skin temporarily through moisturization. Well-moisturized skin might also be able to repair the sun damage better.

The biggest anti-aging effect in this product comes from sun protection. Sun damage is the main factor causing early signs of skin aging. We, however, do not recommend using this product as a sunscreen because the protection it offers is not strong enough).

Ascorbyl palmitate0.1% - 0.35%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Insufficient!

Being a lipid soluble form of vitamin C, it is more stable and can penetrate the skin better than L-Ascorbic acid. It is effective in protecting the skin from free radicals, as well as evening the skin tone, but is less effective in stimulating collagen production compared to L-Ascorbic acid.

Sun protection

This product does not offer good protection against UVA rays.

This product can be considered "reef safe" because it does not contain the UV filters (oxybenzone and octinoxate) that can be harmful to coral reefs when present in the water in high concentrations.

Butyloctyl salicylate6.6% - 10%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:MEDIUM

A synthetic ester of salicylic acid that is used to help disperse pigments and boost effectiveness of sunscreen ingredients. It is able to absorb UV light (working as an organic, or chemical filter), but is not approved as a sunscreen ingredient on its own
