Eucerin Sun Protection Oil Control Gel-Cream SPF50+ 50ml

Product Information

The formula’s sebum-regulating Oil Control Technology combines absorbing microparticles and L-Carnitine, reducing the amount of sebum on the skin. The lipid-absorbing microparticles absorb any remaining excess oils, so skin appears dry and matt. The ultra-light formula has a sebum-regulating Oil Control technology with L-Carnitine and absorbing micro-particles. It leaves an immediate dry touch finish and a long-lasting anti-shine effect of up to eight hours. The sunlight spectrum consists of UV, visible and infrared light. Visible sunlight can be detected by the human eye, while the others remain invisible. Part of this visible spectrum has a high energy level and is known as high-energy visible light. It is also referred to as HEVIS light, HEV Light, HEVL and sometimes ‘blue light’ or ‘blue violet light’. UVB rays provide the energy your skin needs to make Vitamin D and stimulate the production of melanin which is responsible for tanning. They don’t travel as deeply as UVA rays, penetrating only the outermost layers of skin, but they cause more immediate damage such as sunburn. UVB rays are directly absorbed by cellular DNA which can lead to skin diseases such as actinic keratosis and skin cancer.

Both types of UV can induce hyperpigmentationand may contribute to conditions such as sun spots (also known as age spots) and melasma. If your primary skin concern is premature ageing, the Photoageing products with short- and long-chain Hyaluronic Acid will visibly reduce the signs of skin ageing. UV light is the main cause of sun-induced skin damage, but high-energy visible (HEVIS) light can also induce free radicals that cause further stress to skin. Sunlight triggers an increase in melanin production which may lead to hyperpigmentation concerns such as sun spots. Eucerin Sun Pigment Control Tinted Light SPF50+ is an everyday facial sunscreen for all skin types that helps to prevent sun-induced hyperpigmentation. The Advanced Spectral Technology combines broadband and photostable UVA/UVB filters(1) for very high UV protection with Licochalcone A to neutralise free radicals caused by UV and HEVIS light. The anti-pigment sunscreen also includes Glycyrrhetinic Acid which supports skin’s own DNA repair mechanism. The colour pigments included display a light tint and achieve a dual effect Superior broadband and photostable UVA/UVB filters 1 are combined with Licochalcone A to neutralise free radicals caused by UVA and HEVIS light.

UVA rays penetrate the deeper layers of skin. They stimulate the production of free radicals that cause oxidative stress and can lead to indirect DNA damage. UVA rays are most commonly associated with photoaging (premature skin aging caused by the sun). They can also trigger sun allergies such as Polymorphous Light Eruption (PLE). UVB rays can also provoke allergies, but to a lesser degree. It’s not just UV rays that can damage skin. High-energy visible (HEVIS) lightcan also generate free radicals, cause photoaging(premature skin aging caused by the sun) and exacerbate the hyperpigmentation issues that oily and acne-prone skin is particularly prone to. Eucerin Sun Gel-Creme Oil Control Dry Touch SPF 50+ offers Advanced Spectral Technology that goes beyond UV to protect skin from the negative effects of HEVIS light too. The formula also supports skin’s own DNA repair mechanism and includes Eucerin’s proven Oil Control Technology which helps to control skin’s sebum and improve the condition and appearance of oily, acne-prone skin.
