Oil Shield UV Defence Sunscreen SPF 50 (2 x 30ml) Duo

Facial Sunscreen · Budget: £50.00

A high-performance, ultra-lightweight facial sunscreen engineered specifically for oily and combination skin types. This analysis is based on the typical published formulation for SkinCeuticals Oil Shield UV Defence SPF 50 as the ingredient list was inferred. It combines state-of-the-art European photostable filters (Tinosorb S, Mexoryl XL, Mexoryl SX) with oil-absorbing minerals (silica, perlite) and soothing niacinamide. While it provides excellent broad-spectrum protection with a dry-touch finish, the notable inclusion of alcohol denat and a trace ethanolamine (triethanolamine) may not suit dry or severely reactive skin.
