Product summary

"Uriage - Hyséac High Protection Emulsion for Combination to Oily Skin SPF50+" is using UV filters in a relatively low concentration. Because of this, it might not be able to provide reliable sun protection.

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.

It contains good moisturizing ingredients and can double as a hydrating day cream.

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. The UV filters in this sunscreen are: avobenzone 1.10% - 1.40%, uvinul t 1.40% - 1.70% and tinosorb m 1.60% - 1.90%.
