Description
OLD GENERATION CHEMICAL UV FILTER! Octocrylene is a chemical ingredient used in cosmetics as a sun protection filter. It helps protect the skin from harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays, particularly from UV-A and UV-B. This component is able to reduce the risk of sunburn, prevent premature skin aging and prevent the development of pigmentation. Octocrylene has an additional bonus in that it can increase the stability of other sun protection filters and enhance the effectiveness of sun protection products. This means that it can be used in combination with other sun protection ingredients to provide better skin protection from the sun.
