We receive three types of radiation from the sun on earth: infrared<\/strong>, responsible for giving us the sensation of heat; visible<\/strong>, which allows us to see everything in colour; and ultraviole<\/strong>t, which can cause damage to our skin.<\/p>\n This radiation in turn is classified into UVA<\/strong>, which causes skin pigmentation but also irreversible damage such as the degradation of fundamental components in the structure of the skin and the formation of free radicals; UVB<\/strong>, which causes sunburn when we sunbathe in the wild, and photoaging; and UVC<\/strong>, which we should not worry about because the atmosphere is already protecting us from it.<\/p>\n That is why sunscreens focus on protecting us from the aforementioned: the SPF of a sunscreen or Sun protection factor will indicate how much this product protects us from UVB radiation, the minimum being 6 and the maximum 50+, and the grape symbol in a circle will indicate the protection against UVA, always being 1\/3 of the SPF value (i.e., if our sunscreen has SPF30, the protection value against UVA must be at least 10).<\/p>\n Sunscreens can be of two types:<\/p>\n – Chemical or organic filters<\/strong>: these are organic compounds that have a chromophore group that absorbs radiation and changes their chemical structure.<\/p>\n – Physical or mineral filters<\/strong>: these are inorganic filters whose mechanism of action is to absorb radiation and also reflect it. This type of filter can be found in large sizes, giving a whitish result when applied and with heavier cosmetic forms (if you use natural cosmetics, you will know what I am talking about as these are the only ones accepted by the certifiers) or in nano format, with a smaller size, easier to formulate giving more pleasant results and lighter textures.<\/p>\n This Skinceuticals sunscreen contains only mineral filters, in nano format. That is why it has an ultra-light texture, for better application.<\/p>\n The best thing about this sunscreen is that it has colour, but it moulds perfectly to the skin, not leaving a very dark colour as I am very white. As it has a lot of emulsifiers and fatty emulsifiers, it leaves a somewhat oily sensation, with a shine on the skin that we dry skins love, making it not a dry application at all, on the contrary.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong>As we said, it only contains mineral filters, specifically nano-sized titanium dioxide. It is also enriched with Artemia salina, a plankton extract that complements sun protection by stimulating the skin’s natural defences and resistance to UV rays and heat stress.<\/p>\n Here is the full inci below:<\/p>\n AQUA \/ WATER \u2022 TITANIUM DIOXIDE [NANO] \/ TITANIUM DIOXIDE \u2022 ISODODECANE \u2022 DIMETHICONE \u2022UNDECANE \u2022 C12-15 ALKYL BENZOATE \u2022 STYRENE\/ACRYLATES COPOLYMER \u2022 CAPRYLYL METHICONE \u2022 NYLON-12 \u2022BUTYLOCTYL SALICYLATE \u2022 PHENETHYL BENZOATE \u2022 TRIDECANE \u2022 DICAPRYLYL CARBONATE \u2022 SILICA [NANO] \/ SILICA\u2022 TRIETHYLHEXANOIN \u2022 ISOHEXADECANE \u2022 DICAPRYLYL ETHER \u2022 TALC \u2022 DIMETHICONE\/PEG-10\/15 CROSSPOLYMER\u2022 ALUMINUM HYDROXIDE \u2022 STEARIC ACID \u2022 PENTYLENE GLYCOL \u2022 PEG-9 POLYDIMETHYLSILOXYETHYL DIMETHICONE\u2022 CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499 \/ IRON OXIDES \u2022 ALUMINUM STEARATE \u2022 PHENOXYETHANOL \u2022 PEG-8 LAURATE\u2022 MAGNESIUM SULFATE \u2022 CAPRYLYL GLYCOL \u2022 ALUMINA \u2022 POLYHYDROXYSTEARIC ACID \u2022 DISTEARDIMONIUM HECTORITE \u2022 DIETHYLHEXYL SYRINGYLIDENEMALONATE \u2022 TOCOPHEROL<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong>I am loving this sunscreen for my day-to-day life, because, in addition to protecting me from the sun, I am applying light make-up, which is how I like it, leaving my skin luminous, which my dry and dull skin appreciates.<\/p>\n Also, it is not one of those tinted sunscreens that you have to apply carefully.
