Bioderma Photoderm Max Tinted Aquafluid SPF50+

Product Description and Benefits

The Photoderm Max Tinted Aquafluid SPF50+ is designed for all skin types, including sensitive, combination, and oily skin. Its primary purpose is to offer robust protection against the harmful effects of the sun while providing a natural, even-toned finish.

Key benefits include:

• Very High Sun Protection: The product guarantees a very high SPF50+ protection against both UVA and UVB rays. This is achieved through the use of advanced UV filters and Bioderma's patented SUN ACTIVE DEFENSE technology, which goes beyond simple surface protection. It reinforces the skin's natural defense mechanisms to help prevent sun-induced damage and premature skin aging.

• "Dry Touch" Finish: The fluid, water-based texture applies easily and absorbs quickly, leaving a dry, non-greasy, and non-sticky finish. This makes it an excellent choice for daily use, even as a makeup base.

• Mattifying and Anti-Shine: The formula is oil-free and contains a combination of powders that provide a mattifying effect. This helps to control shine, making it ideal for those with oily or combination skin.

• Tinted for a Unified Complexion: The sunscreen comes in a natural, light tint that helps to even out the skin tone and camouflage imperfections, creating a more uniform and radiant appearance.

• High Tolerance: It is formulated to be non-comedogenic and is highly tolerated by both skin and eyes, making it suitable for sensitive skin. It is also water, heat, and high humidity resistant.

Key Ingredients

The formula contains a blend of chemical and mineral filters and other beneficial ingredients:

• Advanced UV Filters: The sunscreen uses a combination of filters like Methylene Bis-Benzotriazolyl Tetramethylbutylphenol (nano), Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane, Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine, and Octocrylene. This blend provides broad-spectrum protection and is designed to be highly photostable, meaning it doesn't break down quickly in sunlight.

• Glycerin: A humectant that helps to attract and retain moisture in the skin, providing hydration.

• Iron Oxides: These are mineral pigments (CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499) that give the cream its natural tint, helping to even out the complexion.

How to Use

For maximum protection and best results, follow these application instructions:

1. Shake well before use to ensure the ingredients are evenly mixed.

3. Reapply frequently to maintain protection, especially after swimming, sweating, or towel drying. Applying a smaller amount of product will reduce the level of sun protection.
