The vegan cicé Sunscreen contains moisturizing glycerin, skin-soothing panthenol and nourishing peach kernel oil. The antioxidant vitamin E provides effective protection against the sun's infrared radiation and free radicals produced by UV radiation, which cause the skin to age faster.
The organic photoprotective filters Tinosorb S, Uvinul A Plus, Goldmann DHBT and Goldmann PBSA are photostable, have a low allergy potential and have not shown hormonal effects in studies. They are therefore a safe alternative to mineral light protection filters, which leave a white film on the skin and can dry it out.
The Sunscreen is free of microplastics and does not contain any light protection filters that are suspected of damaging coral reefs.
We are reluctant to use sun protection filters for various reasons. Firstly, there is an undersupply of vitamin D in Germany, which carries the risk of becoming seriously ill in old age. Recent studies also show that UV light reduces the risk of multiple sclerosis. Secondly, although our light filters are not ecologically questionable, light filters that end up in water are never a benefit to the environment and we should therefore use them sparingly.
We therefore recommend always adapting the use of sun protection products to the intensity of the sun's rays and the length of time spent in the sun. In our opinion, sun protection filter 50 is only necessary for extremely light-sensitive skin - or if you spend time in the sun in the mountains or by the water without being pre-tanned.
No. The sun protection fluid also has nourishing and moisturizing components, so it can also be used without an additional day cream.
Sun protection products are designed to protect against both UVA rays (skin aging) and UVB rays (sunburn). The SPF indicates how much longer you are protected from UVB rays with the product than without it. For UVA protection, on the other hand, you need to look for the UVA seal. This is only available if the UVA protection is at least a third of the UVB protection. The UVA protection of cicé Sunscreen is 15, i.e. half of the UVB protection with SPF 30.
From our holistic point of view, SPF 30 is the best choice in most sun situations. Completely blocking out UV light with SPF 50 is good for the skin - but not for the rest of the body: a growing number of scientists are warning of a dramatic and often serious vitamin D deficiency in our latitudes and a study from 2021 has shown for the first time that a lack of UV light promotes the development of multiple sclerosis. That is why we at cicé strike a prudent balance that takes into account the needs of both the skin and the whole body.
