Product summary

Based on the ingredients included, we believe that "Coola - Eco-Lux SPF 50 Unscented Sunscreen Spray" can offer reliable sun protection. It can protect from both UVA and UVB rays. This is great news because 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).

It contains good moisturizing ingredients and can double as a hydrating day cream. 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. The UV filters in this sunscreen are: avobenzone 1.70% - 2.50%, octinoxate 3.90% - 5.90%, octisalate 1.90% - 2.80% and octocrylene 3.40% - 5.10%.
