About this sunscreen
Azarine Cicamide Barrier Sunscreen Moisturizer SPF 35 PA+++ is a chemical sunscreen-moisturizer hybrid combining ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate, avobenzone, and the modern filter ethylhexyl triazone. It is lightweight with a balanced finish, does not sting, and leaves no visible white cast, and its low breakout-trigger rating makes it generally friendly to most skin types. SPF 35 delivers moderate measured protection, suiting general daytime wear. The overall score of 65.3/100 places it as a fair everyday option.
