About this sunscreen
Glamveda Water Full 1% Hyaluronic Sunscreen SPF 70 PA++++ is a high-SPF chemical sunscreen with added hyaluronic acid, using older filters such as ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate, butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane, and benzophenone-3 alongside zinc oxide. It finishes matte and lightweight with little white cast and a low pore-clogging profile, and it is rated excellent as a makeup base. Protection is good and the formula leans toward a comfortable everyday wear. At 67.0/100 it is a middling pick, held back mainly by its older-generation filter set.
