This product offers broad spectrum sun protection, but it is weak. We recommend to use a broad spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30.
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.

“Hyaluron-Filler + Volume-Lift Day Care SPF15 Dry Skin”
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, sodium hyaluronate.
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: butyrospermum parkii butter, c12-15 alkyl benzoate.

“Eucerin Hyaluron-Filler + Volume-Lift Day Care SPF15 Dry Skin 50ml is a day care for dry skin, developed to fill wrinkles, even deep and redefine the contours of the face for a lifting effect.Its formula combines 3 active ingredients to target specifically the different layers of the epidermis Magnolol, that stimulates effectively the multiplication of the cells at the origin of the skin volume, by increasing their number and their size.Oligo-Peptids, that stimulate the network of collagen fibers for a cutaneous structure more firmer.Hyaluronic Acid, that intensely moisturizes the skin and reduces the wrinkles, even deep.Its anti-UVB (SPF 15) and anti-UVA protection prevents effectively from cutaneous ageing and prevents the accentuation of wrinkles caused by UV.Wrinkles, even deep, are filled, the contours of the face are redefined, for a lifting effect.”
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.This ingredient - butyrospermum parkii butter - could be helpful for preventing or repairing signs of aging in theory, but there is no evidence that it actually works.
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).
