Avène Anti-Ageing Tinted SPF50 Sun Cream

We believe that "Avène - Anti-Ageing Tinted SPF50 Sun Cream" can provide reliable sun protection based on the ingredients listed. We love that it can protect from both UVA and UVB rays (not all sunscreens with SPF ratings give UVA protection. UVA rays do not cause sunburn, but still damage our skin and lead to early aging).

As a plus, this sunscreen uses some of the new generation UV filters (Tinosorb M). These filters are more stable and more gentle on the skin.

Like all broad-spectrum sunscreens, this product has an anti-aging benefit.

Sunscreen filters

This is a so-called "chemical" sunscreen. It means that it uses organic UV filters. They typically offer good sun protection and rarely leave a white cast, but they can be irritating for some people with sensitive skin. Here are the exact UV filters in this sunscreen: tinosorb s 1.90% - 2.40%, avobenzone 0.70% - 1.05%, uvasorb heb 1.60% - 2.00% and tinosorb m 3.70% - 4.50%.
