SUN GEL FACTOR 10 MINERAL UV FILTERS

An oil-free gel for particularly delicate skin prone to sun allergies and Mallorca acne, contains only UV-reflecting minerals. For a particularly gentle but intensive, long-lasting tan. Also ideal for vigorous sporting activity.

Products with mineral pigments for sun protection are healthy, very gentle on the skin and they leave no harmful substances on the skin. They should be applied very thoroughly, however, as mineral pigments tend to leave a white shimmer on the skin.

Further explanations of the ingredients:

Aqua:
Water. It accounts for around 65% of the weight of the human body and is therefore of fundamental importance for bodily functions, including those of the skin. In many cosmetic products (aqueous solutions, cleansers, emulsions), water is the ingredient with the largest proportion of the formulation in terms of quantity and forms the basis of the aqueous phase in emulsions. Water is a good solvent for polar (hydrophilic) substances such as alcohols, water-soluble vitamins or salts. For use in cosmetic products, the water used is generally pre-treated to remove microorganisms that could lead to spoilage of the product or dissolved salts that may impair the stability of emulsions or gels (sterilization and desalination).

Butylene Glycol:
Solvent with moisturizing effect on the skin, very good compatibility, should be preferred to propylene glycol in products used daily

Titanium Dioxide (and) Silica (and) Glycerin (nano):
Titanium dioxide. Serves as a mineral UV filter. The pigments are coated with silicon oxide to ensure stability in the cosmetic product.

D-alpha Tocopheryl Acetate:
Natural vitamin E acetate; storage form in the skin, is converted into the active form by dissolving the acetate bond; antioxidant with skin-protecting properties, e.g. against UV radiation, retains moisture, delays premature skin ageing

Isostearyl Alcohol (and) Butylene Glycol Cocoate (and) Ethylcellulose:
Gelling agent and emulsifier

Zinc Oxide (and) Triethoxycaprylylsilane (nano):
Surface-treated zinc oxide, mineral UV filter, sun protection in the UV-B and UV-A range

Triethyl Citrate:
Citric acid triethyl ester. Inhibits the growth of sweat-decomposing bacteria, very well tolerated by the skin, contained in many fruits.

Polyurethane-39:
Gel former, stabilizer in lotions.

Sodium Lactate:
Sodium salt of lactic acid: Has a moisturising effect on the skin, with the physiological pH value of the skin averaging 5.5. Important component of the natural moisturising factor (NMF) and the acid mantle of the skin.

Sodium Hyaluronate:
Sodium salt of hyaluronic acid. Natural moisturiser with skin-smoothing properties, important natural component of the lower skin layers (dermis). Formerly produced from rooster combs, now produced in better quality by biotechnology.

Xanthan Gum:
Polysaccharide, natural gelling agent with very good skin-compatible properties, is obtained biotechnologically.

Carbomer:
Neutral, polyacrylate-based gelling agent that is very well tolerated by the skin. Contrary to various claims, no “microplastics”.
