Key Features

• Three-in-one formula: Hydrates, nourishes and protects sensitive skin in one simple step, reducing the need for multiple products.
• Daily SPF protection: Broad spectrum SPF 15 helps shield skin from both UVA and UVB rays during routine outdoor exposure.
• Long lasting hydration: A glycerin and emollient blend improves the skin's ability to retain moisture for lasting comfort.
• Fast absorbing formula: Lightweight and non-greasy texture so it layers well under makeup or other treatments without clogging pores.
• Gentle on skin: Paraben free with no added fragrance, clinically tested to be suitable for sensitive skin types.

Who It's For

This moisturizer is best for people with dry to normal skin who prefer a simple daily routine and need light sun protection built into their facial lotion.

It is less appropriate for those who need high SPF for prolonged sun exposure, people with very oily skin who want mattifying ingredients, or users who require active antiaging or tinted coverage from their daily moisturizer.
