About this sunscreen
Azarine Ceraspray Sunscreen Spray SPF 50 PA+++ is a spray-format hybrid sunscreen that combines chemical filters such as octocrylene and ethylhexyl salicylate with the modern organic filter methylene bis-benzotriazolyl tetramethylbutylphenol. It applies lightweight with a balanced finish, keeps white cast low, and works well under makeup. The formula can sting if it reaches the eyes, so caution near the eye area is sensible. With a score of 69/100 and good protection, it is a convenient reapplication-friendly pick for everyday use.
