Sun protectionSPF 15 · 5 UV filters · Broad spectrumWeak protectionSPF under 30
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.
Anti-agingTocopherolLimited evidence
“Noreva Bergasol Sublim Sun Mist SPF15 150ml is a water-resistant sun care product that offers medium sun protection (SPF15).This mist makes it possible to fight effectively against premature skin aging by limiting cellular damage to the heart of the epidermis and to provide complete protection of the skin against UVA / UVB, IR and blue light.”
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).
