Sino Shade (Spf-100) 60g Sunblock

Aloe Vera, Octyl Methoxycinnamate, Microfine Titanium Dioxide, and Microfine Zinc Oxide are key ingredients commonly found in sunblock formulations designed to protect the skin from harmful UV radiation. Aloe Vera is known for its soothing, moisturizing, and anti-inflammatory properties, helping to calm the skin and prevent irritation. Octyl Methoxycinnamate (also known as OMC or Octinoxate) is a chemical sunscreen agent that absorbs UVB rays, preventing sunburn and skin damage. Microfine Titanium Dioxide and Microfine Zinc Oxide are physical (mineral) sunscreen agents that provide broad-spectrum protection against both UVA and UVB rays by reflecting and scattering sunlight. Together, these ingredients form a protective barrier on the skin, preventing sunburn, premature aging, and skin damage caused by sun exposure while maintaining moisture and soothing the skin.
