Based on the ingredient list, we assess that "PURITO - Daily Soft Touch Sunscreen SPF50+ PA++++" can provide 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).
As a plus, this sunscreen uses some of the new generation UV filters (Tinosorb M). These filters are more stable and more gentle on the skin.
Because it includes good moisturizing ingredients, it can also work as a hydrating day cream. This product prevents early signs of aging by protecting against sun damage (all broad spectrum sunscreens do that).
Sunscreen filters
This is a so-called "chemical" sunscreen. It means that it uses organic UV filters.

Here are the exact UV filters in this sunscreen: tinosorb s 2.20% - 2.60%, uvinul a plus 3.20% - 3.90%, uvinul t 2.60% - 3.10% and tinosorb m 1.40% - 1.70%.
