SkinCeuticals Oil Shield Uv Defense SPF50 30ML

SkinCeuticals Oil Shield is a sunscreen that can also minimise oil on the skin to give it a dry look. This product is made up of two active ingredients: silica gel and a broad spectrum sun protection factor.

Firstly, the sun is largely responsible for skin conditions such as sunburn, premature ageing and more serious skin conditions. It has two types of radiation: UVA and UVB. UVA radiation is the most common, accounting for 95 %, but it is also responsible for directly damaging the most exposed cells. As a result, it stimulates the appearance of wrinkles in the long term. UVB radiation, on the other hand, acts to a greater extent, leaving burns. Both types can cause the skin to become blotchy.

So the SPF50 protection of this cream can help mitigate these effects to a large extent. These radiations are measured on a frequency spectrum, so the higher the SPF value, the more protected the skin can be.

Secondly, silica concentrates directly in the pores and oil of the skin. These are two very important and decisive factors in the health and appearance of the skin. This is for the following reasons:

• The pores that our skin has serve to allow it to perspire and carry out its functions in a normal way. These pores tend to become clogged by dense skin secretions or environmental pollutants. Whatever the cause, this can lead to irritation, inflammation and even acne.
• Excess sebum is responsible for making skin oily. In this type of skin, acne is likely to occur at any time.

So silica has the ability to absorb sebum and largely close the pores to control sebum production.

It is indicated for those with normal, normal to oily, oily or combination skin.

This product is applied before exposure to the sun and on the parts of the body that will be exposed. If exposure is prolonged, it is advisable to reapply more frequently. Reapplication of the product is necessary or compulsory after swimming, perspiring or using towels.

This product does not indicate allergic reactions resulting from regular use.

It is composed of silica and broad spectrum UV filters.
