This item has a broad spectrum sunscreen lotion with an SPF of 50, antioxidants, protects against pollution, and has a DNA enzyme complex.
On the left is what it looks like when it comes out of the tube. On the right is after it has been rubbed in a bit.
The sunscreen in this product is a 100% mineral sunscreen that filters out UVA and UVB rays. Since there is a high SPF in it, they made it tinted so that it offsets the white cast of the mineral sunscreen.
The anti-antioxidant blend helps make up the anti-pollution complex that neutralizes free radicals damage caused UV exposure and pollution. Free radicals interfere with your skins ability to retain moisture, and produce elastin and collagen which accelerates signs of aging.
The DNA enzyme complex helps to support your skins natural repair process against oxidative stress (an imbalance between free radicals and antioxidants) and protect against free radical damage.
I like to use this product as a primer before my makeup. The tint only shows up a little bit on my skin, but this product does keep my skin hydrated throughout the day. My makeup did not move around on my face or breakup while I was using it, and it made my skin look better.
I really like the fact that it has a high SPF in it because I do tend to forget about sunscreen unless I have it right in front of my face in the morning. I do like that they used a mineral sunscreen instead of a chemical sunscreen. Mineral sunscreens use physical blockers that reflect the sun off of your skin, instead of absorbing and transforming rays on your skin like the chemical sunscreens do, and it is better for sensitive skin too.
