The new sunscreen is a part of a huge soothing line of the brand, which is based on Centella Asiatica and its main. It is a great product for those who have oily skin or prefer a lightweight sunscreen that does not overload the skin.

Some of the main ingredients of this product:

-          Centella Asiatica extract – great soothing ingredient that helps to reduce redness and irritations, speeds up acne healing and even boosts collagen production.

Cream contains 7 different components of centella – Root, Leaf and Flower extract and 4 main isolates of Centella molecules (Madecassoside, Asiaticoside, Asiatic acid, Madecassid Acid)

-          Niacinamide – form of Vitamin B3. It is a popular ingredient in the brightening skincare products as it helps to slow down melanin production and reduce the pigmentation and dark spots. Moreover, Niacinamide is beneficial for aging skin, because it works as antioxidant and prevents free radical activity.

-          Adenosine – another powerful ingredient for the wrinkle care. Adenoside boosts collagen and elastin production in the cells, which helps to smooth the surface of the skin and improve wrinkles and fine lines.

But as the main function of this product is sun protection, we need to talk about the sunscreen agents used here.

CICA Soothing Sun Cream is based on Chemical sunscreen filters of a new generation.

For those who do not know, Chemical or Organic sunscreen agents are based on the components that tend to penetrate the skin surface and absorb different UV-rays. Unlike physical, chemical sunscreens do not leave any white cast on the skin and have lighter texture.

New generation chemical filters combine both high level of protection and relative safety to those with sensitive skin. New generation sunscreen are also more sustainable and you do not need to re-apply them as often as old ones if wearing in the city.

Sun agents of Mary&May’s sunscreen are:

- Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate

Photo-stable filter suitable for sensitive skin

- Ethylhexyl Triazone

Effective against UVB rays

- Methylene Bis-Benzotriazolyl Tetramethylbutylphenol

Broad spectrum filter that protects against both UVA and UVB rays

- Diethylhexyl Butamido Triazone

Effective against UVB rays

The product has light lotion-like texture that can be easily applied on the skin and leave a nice dewy finish. Thanks to the chemical agents, it does not leave any white cast and does not overload the skin.

Certification

The CICA Soothing Sunscreen has been certified by The Vegan Society and has a sign of Clean Beauty. It has also been dermatologically tested and proven to be safe for sensitive skin.
