About this sunscreen

Cosmetic Plant Bioliv Antiaging Day Cream SPF 15 is a chemical sunscreen on an old-school filter base of Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Octocrylene and Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane. It applies with a dewy, lightweight finish and low white cast, though the older filters may sting on contact with eyes. Its low pore-clogging profile is friendly to most skin types. With a score of 56.0/100 and only moderate protection at SPF 15, it is a light anti-aging cream rather than a serious sun-protection product.
