🩺 Clinical
This is a topical lotion marketed as a daily sunscreen with broad spectrum SPF 50 protection. It contains four active ingredients that function as ultraviolet (UV) filters: homosalate, octisalate, and octocrylene are organic chemical absorbers, while zinc oxide is a mineral reflectant. Together, these ingredients are typically used to help protect skin from both UVA and UVB rays. This product is an over-the-counter monograph drug, meaning it is formulated according to FDA category standards rather than as an individually reviewed application.
