SUN
Oil-free SPF 30 sunscreen with ultimate anti-acne protection by phytoalexins.
This special formulation provides simultaneously effective solar radiation shielding and anti-acne bacteriostatic properties.
Our sunscreen doesn’t contain oily ingredients prone to clog your pores and worsen existing acne conditions. Instead, we use non-nanometric particles to intercept sun rays.
PROPERTIES
Antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antihistaminic, hydrating, sunscreen and cellular damage repair
APPLICATION
At will
SUN, from the old English word sunne, the sun
Designed to provide antibacterial protection and shield your skin from UV radiation with a SPF 30 screen without clogging your pores.
SUN protects from UV radiation and fights the bacteria Cutibacterium/Propionibacterium acnes
Apply on the skin at least 20 minutes before exposition. When exposed directly to solar radiation, repeat the application every two hours. Due to the high ingredients concentrations in all Aknostasis formulas, do not mix with other third-party products unless under apposite medical prescription.
Contains antibacterial phytoalexins, antioxidants, vitamin E, hydrating agents and sunscreen.
Storage and Preservation
Aknostasis cosmeceuticals contain highly concentrated and pure active ingredients. You should start to use SUN shortly after purchase. Once open, the product should be used within the next two months, and always stored in a dry and fresh location without sun exposure, ideally under a temperature of 8º to 25º Celsius. On the beach, do not leave the container exposed to direct sunlight as the heat build-up will shorten the product’s lifespan.
NOTE: Our sunscreen presents a slight paste-like texture and under strong rubbing can also pill on your skin. This is not due to a formulation error. The application of greasy products on acne-prone skin must be categorically avoided due to the ensuing clogging of pores. The clogging of pores insulates bacteria and allows its proliferation, which will then worsen the acne. Aknostasis SUN relies on a special combination of several mineral filters (non-nanometric zinc oxide and titanium dioxide particles) to intercept UV radiation. We advise to use our sunscreen until the improvement of your skin allows the application of conventional sunscreen products without suffering negative consequences (almost all sunscreen products contain oily chemical UV filters which are incompatible with acne-prone skin).
