Product Summary
"Soleil Noir - Vitamined Dry Oil SPF30 Spray" is using UV filters in a relatively low concentration. Because of this, it might not be able to provide reliable sun protection.
Its formula is also hydrating, so you might not need an additional moistruizer during the day.
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 1.90% - 2.90%, uvinul a plus 1.30% - 1.90% and uvinul t 2.20% - 3.20%.
Irritation risk
This formulation includes some common irritants, including ingredients that do not provide a benefit for the skin. We assess the overall irritancy of this moisturizer to be high. For a detailed overview of all potential irritants: click here
