Cien Sun Sport Transparent Sun Spray, SPF 30, 200 ml

Product Information

A chemical sunscreen agent that's very oil soluble and requires relatively low concentrations to achieve high SPF values. Allow to fully absorb and avoid direct contact with textiles and hard surfaces to prevent discolouration. According to the manufacturer it can do all kinds of good in a formula: it can reduce trans-epidermal-water-loss (a fancy way of saying that it's moisturizing), improve the appearance of skin’s superficial fine lines, improve the uniformity and spreadability of a formulation and provides SPF enhancement. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.

Its INCI name is a bit of a mouthful, but Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine is worth recognizing it as it is one of the best sunscreen agents known today. We use Aldis lacura version for my son who has sensory difficulties and it's the only sunscreen that's works for him.However, if you want a suncream that ticks all of the right boxes - easy to dispense and blend in, unlikely to spill in your bag and wreak havoc, so on. After about thirty seconds, there was a glow (not shine) to my skin and only ever so slightly tacky feeling (not sticky).

As for the experiment, it lasted slightly longer than its competitor, with a vague background redness and sprinkle of tiny but bolder red spots becoming too visible to ignore around 25 minutes in. It occurs when damage is caused to the skin cells, most often by UV light from the sun or tanning beds. Galactoarabinan is a natural polysaccharide (a big carbohydrate molecule) that comes from the Larch trees.Actually really liked this Cien aerosol from Lidl for myself, but unfortunately it didn’t agree with my youngest’s skin so we went back to Aldi’s range. The less fine (bigger particle size) version is used as a gentle scrubbing agent (a nice natural, biodegradable alternative to now banned plastic polyethylene) and the ultra fine version is used as a helper ingredient that gives a super-silky, soft touch, reduces tackiness or greasiness and can also be used as a mattifying agent.

With 15,400 new cases of melanoma each year, manufacturers should be required to robustly test their products and make only claims that can be relied on, ensuring holidaymakers know they can trust their sunscreen to protect them.My least favourite of the three Lacura products mentioned, but again promotes an SPF 50+, UVA and UVB protection, water resistance and quick drying. Octocrylene's safety profile is generally quite good, though a review study in Contact Dermatitis reports an "increasing number of patients with photo contact allergy to octocrylene. Eight hours later, skin specialist Dr Ifeoma Ejikeme, of the Adonia Medical Clinic in London, used a professional UV face scanner to check how much protection remained on her face.
