Mineral UV filters (Zinc Oxide, Titanium Dioxide) physically deflect UV radiation, providing broad-spectrum coverage with excellent skin tolerance but often at the cost of a white cast at the concentrations needed for full protection. The hybrid formula uses both, requiring less of each to achieve SPF50+ PA++++ while minimising both the cast and any sensitisation risk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is this suitable for acne-prone skin?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes. The formula is non-comedogenic and Panthenol's anti-inflammatory properties make it particularly appropriate for reactive, acne-prone skin that can be sensitised by conventional sunscreen ingredients.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Can I use this without a separate moisturiser?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: For oily and combination skin types, yes.
