About this sunscreen
Vision Face Fluid SPF 50 is a hybrid sunscreen with a broad filter set that combines avobenzone, octocrylene, and octisalate with Uvinul A Plus, Tinosorb S, and titanium dioxide. It sets to a matte finish with low white cast, feels lightweight, does not sting, and is low on the pore-clogging scale, so it tends to suit oily and acne-prone skin and layers well under makeup. The wide filter range is commonly seen as giving excellent broad-spectrum coverage, in line with its excellent protection rating. It scores 84.2/100.
