Product summary

The ingredient list suggests that "Sea Magik - Sunsafe SPF50 Oil-Free Facial Gel" can provide reliable sun protection. We love that it can protect from both UVA and UVB rays (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).

Sunscreen filters

This is a so-called "chemical" sunscreen. It means that it uses organic UV filters. They typically offer good sun protection and rarely leave a white cast, but they can be irritating for some people with sensitive skin. The UV filters in this sunscreen are: tinosorb s 2.10% - 3.20%, avobenzone 2.70% - 4.00%, uvasorb heb 1.80% - 2.80%, octisalate 3.60% - 5.30%, homosalate 5.10% - 7.60% and octocrylene 4.20% - 6.40%.
