INCI - Full Breakdown

Homosalate (9.9%)

Roles: Skin conditioning, Fragrance

UV Protection

Octinoxate (7.5%)

UV Protection

Octinoxate is an effective sun protector that absorbs UV-B rays mostly. That means it can help to protect the skin from burns and from cancer. It’s also a solvent for other sunscreen components. This helps manufacturers to make products less oily.

Octisalate (3%)

Roles: Fragrance

UV Protection

Avobenzone (2%)

UV Protection

Avobenzone is the only chemical UV-protection component with a broad spectrum coverage. It can help to block both UVA I and UVA II rays. It's safe and it is allowed to use at a 3% concentration in the USA and a 5% concentration in the EU countries.

There is one problem: avobenzone loses efficiency when exposed to the sun. If you are outside, it loses 36% of its ability to block UV rays an hour after application. That's why it's recommended to reapply sunscreen every 2 hours.

Water

Roles: Solvent

Water is a great solvent. It’s neutral and doesn’t provide any strong positive or negative effects. It just helps components to mix better and to transport active components.

Cetyl Hydroxyethylcellulose

Roles: Emulsion stabilizer, Film former, Viscosity controlling

Glycerin

Roles: Fragrance, Hair conditioning, Humectant, Solvent, Viscosity controlling

Moisturizing

Hair structure improvement

Hair gloss

Good for dry skin

Glycerin is one of the most outstanding and helpful skincare components. It's used in many skincare products because it works and provides notable results. It's one of the best moisturizers. Molecules of Glycerin can absorb water and deliver it into deep layers of the skin making it hydrated.

Xanthan Gum

Roles: Skin conditioning, Binding, Emulsifying, Emulsion stabilizer, Gel forming, Surfactant, Viscosity controlling

Xanthan Gum is used as a thickener or rheology modifier and emulsion stabilizer. It doesn’t provide any notable skin-related effects and is used mostly for formulation purposes. It makes the product’s texture smooth and even. It’s a naturally-derived thickener. Notable fact: it can also be found in the food you eat every day, so it is 100% safe.
