Sensitive Protect Sun Fluid Mattifying SPF50+

Product summary

We believe that this product can provide reliable sun protection based on the ingredients listed. 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 also works as a moisturizer, so you do not have to use an additional hydrating product. This product prevents early signs of aging by protecting against sun damage (all broad spectrum sunscreens do that).

Sunscreen filters

This sunscreen uses a mixture of both mineral and organic (so-called "chemical") UV filters. Here are the organic filters this product uses: tinosorb s, avobenzone, octisalate, homosalate, octocrylene and ensulizole. As for the mineral filters, this sunscreen uses titanium dioxide.

Irritation risk

This formulation includes some common irritants, including ingredients that do not provide a benefit for the skin. We assess the overall irritancy of this sunscreen to be low. For a detailed overview of all potential irritants: click here

WIMJ summary for sun protection

This product offers a good level of protection against both UVB and UVA rays.

This sunscreen uses organic (so-called "chemical") sunscreen filters. Organic, or "chemical" filters usually provide reliable sun protection and rarely leave a white cast. Sunscreens with organic filters can sting eyes.

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.

Promise

What does the product description say?

"This protects the skin from UV-induced ageing and damage, while the cells’ own DNA is repaired through glycyrrhetinic acid, which supports skin that’s been damaged by UV-rays."

WIMJ summary for anti-aging

This product can help prevent early signs of skin aging because it offers a good level of broad spectrum sun protection. Sun damage is the main cause of premature skin aging, and protecting your skin from the sun is the best anti-aging strategy.

WIMJ summary for evens skin tone

This product offers broad spectrum sun protection. It means that it can prevent hyperpigmentation and help keep the skin tone even (sun damage is the main factor causing age spots, darkening of post-acne marks and other discolorations).

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
glycyrrhetinic acid	MEDIUM
glycyrrhiza inflata root extract	LOW

WIMJ summary for moisturizing

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, glycine.

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, butylene glycol dicaprylate/dicaprate.

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
polymethylsilsesquioxane	HIGH
arginine hcl	HIGH
dimethicone	HIGH

WIMJ summary for anti-oxidation

This product contains antioxidants (glycyrrhetinic acid) that can help neutralize free radicals in skin. By doing so, they can lessen the damage the skin gets from the UV light (sun).

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
glycyrrhetinic acid	HIGH
glycyrrhiza inflata root extract	LOW

butylene glycol dicaprylate/dicaprate Helps soften the upper layer of the skin	4.2% - 5.2%
isopropyl palmitate Helps soften the upper layer of the skin and create a thicker product consistency	3.1% - 3.8%
octocrylene A weak sunscreen that protects against the sun rays that cause sunburn (UVB) and is somewhat effective against the UVA rays. It is quite stable and can help stabilize other, more vulnerable, sunscreen ingredients like Avobenzone. It is an organic, or so called "chemical" sunscreen	3.2% - 4%
alcohol denat. Produces temporary toning effect. Can help dissolve other ingredients or preserve products	1.9% - 2.4%
methyl methacrylate crosspolymer Helps thicken the product consistency	1.7% - 2.1%
butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane Avobenzone. An organic, or so-called "chemical" UV filter. Protects against both UVA and UVB rays. Needs to be combined with other filters in a formulation to be stable.	1.9% - 2.4%
titanium dioxide Works as a UV filter when used in high concentrations. It is photostable and is effective mostly against the UVB light, with some protection in the UVA range. In small concentrations, used for its ability to improve the color of cosmetic products. Is usually well tolerated by the skin	1.5% - 1.9%
bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine Tinosorb S. One of the most effective broad spectrum sunscreen ingredients. Protects from both UVA and UVB rays. It is photostable. Unfortunately, not approved by FDA (US) yet.	1.4% - 1.7%
homosalate A weak sunscreen that offers some protection against the sun rays that cause sunburn (UVB), but does not offer meaningful protection against protect against the most aging sun rays (UVA). It loses its effectiveness quickly when exposed to sunlight. It is an organic, or so called "chemical" sunscreen.

dibutyl adipate Helps soften the upper layer of the skin and create a nice product consistency	0.65% - 0.95%
glycine Helps to attract water to the upper layer of the skin and can help restore the skin barrier function	0.5% - 0.75%

ethylhexyl salicylate Octisalate. A UV filter. It offers some protection against the sun rays that cause sunburn (UVB), but does not protect against the most aging sun rays (UVA). It loses its effectiveness quickly when exposed to sunlight. It is an organic, or so called "chemical" sunscreen	0.6% - 0.9%
phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid Ensulizole. A UV filter that is effective against UVB rays. Does not protect against UVA light. It is photostable and can be used to help stabilize other sunscreen ingredients. It is water-soluble meaning that it can help create lighter sunscreen formulations	0.55% - 0.85%
arginine hcl An amino acid that is naturally present in skin and helps keep it hydrated. When used together with AHAs, it can reduce their irritating effect on the skin	0.3% - 0.6%
polyglyceryl-4 diisostearate/polyhydroxystearate/sebacate Helps water and oil mix together	0.3% - 0.55%
glycerin One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant	0.25% - 0.5%
sodium hyaluronate One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin	0.2% - 0.4%
glycyrrhetinic acid Active compound of licorice root. Works to calm down inflammation, as an anti-oxidant, and might be helpful in lightening the skin and reducing hyperpigmentation	0.2% - 0.4%
glycyrrhiza inflata root extract A plant extract that can help lighten the skin and calm down inflammation. Might be helpful in neutralizing free radicals	0.2% - 0.35%
