Eucerin Sun Protection Oil Control Gel-Cream SPF50+ 50ml

Product Information

The gel-cream sunscreen offers very high UV protection: the UVA and UVB filters meet the high standards defined by Cosmetics Europe and the levels of UVA protection are higher than the EU minimum recommendation. Eucerin’s Advanced Spectral Technology combines these broadband and photostable UVA/UVB filters with Licochalcone A to neutralize free radicals caused by UV and HEVIS light. The formula also contains Glycyrrhetinic Acid, which supports skin’s own DNA repair mechanism, and Oil Control technology with mattifying pigments that leave an immediate dry touch finish on skin. As a fair-skinned person who burns easily, I've long been on the lookout for a facial sunscreen that protects my skin without affecting the texture or causing a breakout. In this Eucerin oil-control suncream, I've finally found the product for me. It doesn't leave a white cast like some competitor's I've tried, and it really does act an oil-control without overly drying out my skin. Colour Pigments work for a dual effect, both providing protection and promoting a more unified, even skin tone: UVA rays penetrate the deeper layers of skin. They stimulate the production of free radicals that cause oxidative stress and can lead to indirect DNA damage. UVA rays are most commonly associated with photoaging (premature skin aging caused by the sun). They can also trigger sun allergies such as Polymorphous Light Eruption (PLE). UVB rays can also provoke allergies, but to a lesser degree. It’s not just UV rays that can damage skin. High-energy visible (HEVIS) light can also generate free radicals, cause photoageing (premature skin ageing caused by the sun) and exacerbate the hyperpigmentation issues that oily and acne-prone skin is particularly prone to.

The innovative Advanced Spectral Technologycombines broad-band and photostable UVA/UVB filters¹ for reliable UV protection with antioxidant Licochalcone A for high-energy visible (HEVIS) light defence. Glycyrrhetinic Acid provides additional DNA protection.²If your primary skin concern is premature ageing, the Photoageing products with short- and long-chain Hyaluronic Acid will visibly reduce the signs of skin ageing. Superior broadband and photostable UVA/UVB filters 1 are combined with Licochalcone Ato neutralise free radicals caused by UVA and HEVIS light. The bottle is small but it feels like you get a good amount of product; I carry mine around everywhere and reapply regularly and it lasts for months. The light formula makes it great for everyday wear, so much so that I can even wear it to work to protect from aging UVA rays - which can affect us even behind glass.

The sunscreen for oily skin also contains Glycyrrhetinic Acid which supports skin’s own DNA repair mechanism. UVA rays penetrate the deeper layers of skin. They stimulate the production of free radicals in the skin which cause oxidative stress and can lead to indirect DNA damage (where the free radicals modify cellular DNA over time). UVA rays are most commonly associated with premature skin ageing. They can also trigger sun allergies such as Polymorphous Light Eruption ( PLE). UVB rays can also provoke allergies, but to a lesser degree. The formula’s sebum-regulating Oil Control Technology combines lipid absorbing micropigments and L-Carnitine, reducing the skins own sebum production. The lipid-absorbing micropigments absorb any remaining excess oils, so skin appears dry and matt.Both types of UV can induce hyperpigmentationand may contribute to conditions such as sun spots(also known as age spots). Superior broadband and photostable UVA/UVB filters 1 are combined with Licochalcone A to neutralise free radicals caused by UVA and HEVIS light. The sunlight spectrum consists of UV, visible and infrared light. Visible sunlight can be detected by the human eye, while the others remain invisible. Part of this visible spectrum has a high energy level and is known as high-energy visible light. It is also referred to as HEVIS light, HEV Light, HEVL and sometimes ‘blue light’ or ‘blue violet light’.

Sun Face Oil Control Tinted SPF 50+ is a tinted facial sunscreen for oily and acne-prone skin. The Advanced Spectral Technology combines broadband and photostable UVA and UVB filters for very high UV protection with Licochalcone A to neutralize free radicals caused by UV and HEVIS light, and Glycyrrhetinic Acid which supports skin’s own DNA repair mechanism.Many modern sunscreens offer effective protection against UVA and UVB rays, but we recommend that you look out for products that also defend against the negative effects of HEVIS light. These products will give your skin reliable protection from photoaging and, in the long run, can also help to combat visible signs of skin aging such as wrinkles. If your skin is prone to sun allergies, the Sun Protection and After Sun formulas with Alpha-Glucosylrutin will help to prevent sun-induced allergies such as PLE. To protect against hyperpigmentation: As skin affected by acne show a high degree of inflammation, it is particularly prone to hyperpigmentation and excess melanin is produced. This surplus melanin remains after the spot has healed leaving a pigmentation mark. These pigmentation marks are particularly susceptible to the sun and the right sun protection will help to prevent them from darkening and becoming more noticeable. Eucerin Sun products are available in a range of medium, high and very high SPFs. All are clinically and dermatologically proven to be both highly effective and well tolerated by sensitive skin.

UV light is the main cause of sun-induced skin damage, but high-energy visible (HEVIS) light can also induce free radicals that cause further stress to skin. Sunlight triggers an increase in melanin production which may lead to hyperpigmentation concerns such as sun spots. Eucerin Sun Pigment Control Tinted Light SPF50+ is an everyday facial sunscreen for all skin types that helps to prevent sun-induced hyperpigmentation. The Advanced Spectral Technology combines broadband and photostable UVA/UVB filters(1) for very high UV protection with Licochalcone A to neutralise free radicals caused by UV and HEVIS light. The anti-pigment sunscreen also includes Glycyrrhetinic Acid which supports skin’s own DNA repair mechanism. The colour pigments included display a light tint and achieve a dual effect Both types of UV can induce hyperpigmentation and may contribute to conditions such as sun spots (also known as age spots) and melasma.
