Product summary

We assess that "Skinny Tan - Protect & Glow Lotion SPF50" can provide reliable sun protection based on the ingredient list. 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).

This moisturizer should also be hydrating enough to use without an additional moisturizer during the day. Like all broad-spectrum sunscreens, this product has an anti-aging benefit.

Sunscreen filters

This sunscreen uses so-called "chemical", or organic UV filters (organic simply means that their molecules contain atoms of carbon). These filters typically give good sun protection and rarely leave a white cast, but they can be irritating for sensitive skin. These are the sun protection ingredients in this sunscreen: tinosorb s 0.60% - 0.90%, avobenzone 3.20% - 3.90%, uvinul a plus 6.50% - 8.00%, uvasorb heb 0.55% - 0.80%, octisalate 3.60% - 4.40%, uvinul t 0.55% - 0.80% and octocrylene 2.60% - 3.20%.

Irritation risk
