"Cattier - Organic Baby Sun Protection Cream SPF50+" does not provide enough UVA protection. UVA rays do not cause sunburn, but still damage the skin, leading to early signs of aging and pigmentation issues.
It also works as a moisturizer, so you do not have to use an additional hydrating product.
Sunscreen filters
This moisturizer is a mineral sunscreen. It uses titanium dioxide for sun protection. Titanium dioxide almost never irritates the skin or stings eyes, but it can leave a white cast.

The cocktail of 3 vegetable oils (flax, safflower, passion fruit) brings smoothness at texture and contributes to let the skin soft and moisturised. 98% of total is of natural origin.
This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives:
caprylic/capric triglyceride, carthamus tinctorius seed oil.
Keep in mind that this product does not contain effective ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the
skin. This is why an additional
product with humectants like glycerin or hyaluronic acid can be helpful (apply it before this product for the best
results).
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
