Key ingredients and their functions

  • Octinoxate - UVB filter
  • Octocrylene - UV filter stabilizer
  • Oxybenzone - UV filter
  • Zinc Oxide - UVA/UVB filter
  • Ethylhexyl Palmitate - emollient
  • Cetyl Dimethicone Copolyol - emulsifier
  • Tocopheryl Acetate - antioxidant
  • Beeswax - texture enhancer

How it works

The product primarily functions by using a combination of chemical and physical agents to safeguard the skin from ultraviolet radiation. Octinoxate and Oxybenzone are chemical filters that help absorb UV radiation, while Octocrylene stabilizes the formula and enhances its sun protection effectiveness. Zinc Oxide acts as a physical barrier on the skin that reflects and scatters UVA and UVB rays. The inclusion of emollients like Ethylhexyl Palmitate helps maintain skin moisture, while Cetyl Dimethicone Copolyol serves as an emulsifier, contributing to product stability. Tocopheryl Acetate provides antioxidant properties, and Beeswax aids in maintaining the product's texture and application smoothness.
