Product summary

We do not recommend "Heliocare - Ultra SPF 90 Gel" because it does not provide good UVA protection. UVA sun rays don't burn the skin, but they still lead to photoaging and hyperpigmentation.

It should also be hydrating enough to use without an additional moisturizer during the day.

Sunscreen filters

This sunscreen uses a mixture of both mineral and organic (so-called "chemical") UV filters. The organic filters in the product are: octinoxate, uvinul t and octocrylene. As for the mineral filters, this sunscreen uses both titanium dioxide and zinc oxide.
