[SCINIC] Enjoy Super Mild Sun Essence SPF 50+ PA++++ 50ml

Product Information

Colorless to pale yellow liquid with nice and non-shiny finish. Can stabilize Avobenzone and works well with Ensulizole

I’ve reviewed a bunch of sunscreens over the past couple of weeks, and these filters are quite frankly very impressive. I don’t think I’ve used any Korean sunscreen that provides this much protection without sacrificing its cosmetic elegance. Of course, the SPF is 50+, and the PA rating is the highest, which is PA++++. If you’re not convinced about this sunscreen. You should be now. Uvinul A Plus - A new generation, chemical sunscreen agent (not available in the US due to impossible FDA regulations) that's designed for high UVA protection and high photostability. Green Tea - one of the most researched natural ingredients that contains the superstar actives called catechins. It has proven antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial and anticarcinogenic properties. Yes, it’s been independently tested to have PFA 24.3, which is a PA++++. This is about as strong as you’ll get for Asian sunscreens, so if you want even stronger UVA protection I would recommend European formulas like the La Roche Posay Anthelios (make sure it’s the EU version!). But if you’re applying the correct amount and diligent about reapplying, I think the AXIS-Y one should suffice for everyday activities. If that would not be enough, the French manufacturer (Seppic) also has encouraging in-vivo studies on the molecule.Used at 0.2%, Madecassoside reduces redness and peeling in skin with light atopic dermatitis as well as itching in psoriasis-prone skin.Tinosorb S protects against both UVA and UVB rays! A study of 18 filters actually found this to have one of the best SPF protection, plus it’s incredibly stable and safe as well. Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate , Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine , Ethylhexyl Triazone , Isoamyl p-Methoxycinnamate , Polysilicone-15 It's the salt form of famous humectant and natural moisturizing factor, hyaluronic acid. It can bind huge amounts of water and it's pretty much the current IT-moisturizer.

See, this is why you don’t exaggerate and lie. As a sunscreen the SCINIC Super Mild Sun Essence does everything it should beautifully. But the brand also claims it provides a brightening effect and improves the appearance of wrinkles, which technically aren’t true. This sunscreen is great but it’s not a miracle cure for all your skin problems! La Roche-Posay is the next oiliest and it definitely feels that way on the skin as well, but that’s the trade off for the stronger protection. Where to buy: Available at Yesstyle (code KBEAUTYNOTES for 2-5% off) and Stylevana US / Stylevana EU. For a first world country, we sure are behind in a lot of things, including the availability of next generation filters.

Ingredient List & Sunscreen Filters Not only a simple moisturizer but knows much more: keeps the skin lipids between our skin cells in a healthy (liquid crystal) state, protects against irritation, helps to restore barrier

Recently science has taken an interest in Gotu Kola as well and it turns out it really has many active compounds with several benefits. Just for hard-core geeks, the main biologically active compounds are pentacyclic triterpenoid saponins called asiaticoside, madecassoside, asiatic and madecassic acid (also called centellosides). A mainly oil-loving, vegetable raw material based ingredient that helps water and oil to mix together, aka emulsifier. It can also function as a wetting and dispersing agent helping insoluble particles such as color pigments or inorganic sunscreens (zinc/titanium dioxide) to disperse nice and even in liquids.

It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with nice and non-shiny(at least compared to most other sunscreens) sensorial properties.A natural multi-functional ingredient that has emollient and moisturizing properties, can work as a co-emulsifier and has a strong antimicrobial activity. Another great thing about panthenol is that it has anti-inflammatory and skin protecting abilities. A study shows that it can reduce the irritation caused by less-nice other ingredients (e.g. fragrance, preservatives or chemical sunscreens) in the product.
