Performance Scores
SPF Level
Excellent
SPF Level
Label claims SPF 50+, validated by the prominent placement of Octinoxate, Octocrylene, and Titanium Dioxide which strongly absorb in the 280-320 nm range.
Broad Spectrum
Excellent
Broad Spectrum
Zinc Oxide and Avobenzone offer complementary strong absorption peaks at 370 nm and 357 nm respectively, thoroughly covering the 340-400 nm UVA I range.
Sweat Resistance
Poor
Sweat Resistance
The inactive ingredient list is built on an aqueous base (Aqua, Butylene Glycol) and lacks established waterproofing agents like acrylates copolymers or dimethicone.
Photo Stability
Fair
Photo Stability
Photobiology literature establishes that Octinoxate and Avobenzone destabilize each other under UV exposure unless aggressively quenched by stabilizers like Octocrylene.
Visible Light
Poor
Visible Light
Absence of iron oxide color indices (e.g., CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499) in the inactive ingredients list.
Irritation Risk
Medium Risk
Irritation Risk
Dermatological literature identifies octocrylene as a frequent cause of allergic contact dermatitis, particularly in patients with previously compromised skin barriers.
Pore Clogging
Low Risk
Pore Clogging
Dermatological comedogenicity scales rate the primary vehicle (water, butylene glycol) and the UV filters at 0-1/5, while Tocopherol (Vitamin E) is rated 2/5 but appears at the bottom of the ingredient list.
White Cast
Low Risk
White Cast
Mineral filters listed at the bottom of the ingredient deck typically constitute less than 1-2% of the formula, insufficient to produce significant cast on most skin tones.
Ingredients Analysis
Active Filters
Octinoxate UVB
Studies indicate potential estrogenic and thyroid disrupting activity in animal models and human cell lines.
Avobenzone UVA I / UVA II
Rapidly degrades under UV exposure losing significant UVA protection capacity unless stabilized by other filters.
Octocrylene UVB / UVA II
Banned in several jurisdictions due to evidence of coral toxicity and accumulation in marine life.
Titanium Dioxide UVB / UVA II
Classified as a possible human carcinogen if inhaled making spray and powder formulations a potential risk while dermal application remains safe
Key Inactive Ingredients
Lecithin Emollient
The Cosmetic Ingredient Review expert panel advises that lecithin should not be used in formulations containing nitrosating agents to prevent the formation of potentially carcinogenic N nitroso compounds [1.6].
Phenoxyethanol Preservative
Generally well tolerated but can cause contact dermatitis or skin irritation in rare cases, particularly in sensitive individuals.
Turmeric Extract Skin Conditioning
Although widely used for its soothing properties, there are documented cases of allergic contact dermatitis in response to topical turmeric and its active compound curcumin [3.1].
Ethylhexylglycerin Preservative
Recognized as a rare but emerging cause of allergic contact dermatitis, particularly in leave-on cosmetic products.
Ethoxydiglycol Solvent
Restricted in the EU to specific maximum concentrations and banned in eye and oral products to prevent potential kidney damage [2.1].
