## Description

Product Description This suncream is formulated to optimise the distribution of sun filters on the skin, resulting in high SPF levels. To keep sufficient moisture in the skin glycerine (3%) and panthenol (0.3%) are formulated into the water phase at moderate concentration, to maintain hydration without exaggerating the moisturising effect associated with excessive glycerine. Ingredients Aqua, C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate, Ethylhexyl Salicylate, Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane, Ethylhexyl Stearate, Octocrylene, Glycerin, Phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonic Acid, Cetearyl Alcohol, Glyceryl Stearate, Titanium Dioxide (nano), Tris-Biphenyl Triazine (nano), Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Panthenol, Caprylyl Glycol, Butylene Glycol, Propylene Glycol, Decyl Glucoside, Xanthan Gum, Piroctone Olamine, Titanium Dioxide, Sodium Cetearyl Sulfate, Silica, Disodium Phosphate, Diethylhexyl Sodium Sulfosuccinate, Sodium Hydroxide, Phenoxyethanol, Silver Chloride Directions Apply sunscreen 30 minutes before sun exposure, use a generous amount and reapply every 2 hours or after swimming/sweating.

Review: Excellent, miracle product! - Wow! Where has this sunscreen been all my life? It's absolutely perfect for me. I have very reactive skin, prone to eczema when irritated, and cannot tolerate many sunscreens because of either the fragrance that inexplicably is added to most cosmetic products (despite fragrance being the commonest allergen and irritant, it is STILL added to many products advertised as suitable for 'sensitive skin'), or the drying high alcohol content in the more cosmetically elegant, high-end formulations. I also have rosacea, and have been advised strongly by multiple dermatologists that wearing a daily facial sunscreen is non-negotiable. I also wish to avoid the leathery, lined, age-spotted skin that comes with tanning and general sun exposure over the years and thus have spent years experimenting with various types of sun protection. Often in vain, due to the endless poor formulations on the market. Altruist sunscreen is almost a miracle product for me. It provides good protection from UVA and UVB rays, is cosmetically quite elegant and leaves neither chalky nor greasy residue on the skin and thus wears beautifully under make-up, and is actually non-fragranced and thus doesn't upset my skin, even the fragile facial skin. You get the faintest 'sunscreen' smell if you put your nose to your skin, but that's it. It's neither too thick nor too runny and sinks in easily, preventing irritation from endless rubbing of the skin. I can use it all over, even on the most sensitive areas prone to rashes and patches of eczema - decolletage, face and neck. It's also pleasingly cheap, especially compared to high end products. I paid £8.00 for two big 200ml tubes - even compared to the cheaper end of the sunscreen market this is an excellent deal. I'd recommend this to anyone who has problems with otherwise decent sunscreens due to fragrance and alcohol content. I will be using this product lavishly and buying more in the future.
