Description
OLD GENERATION CHEMICAL UV FILTER! Ethylhexyl Salicylate, also known as Octisalate, is one of the most widely used chemical sunscreen filters used in cosmetics. It protects the skin from ultraviolet B (UVB) rays which cause sunburn, sun damage, premature skin aging and skin cancer. Ethylhexyl Salicylate is added to facial, body and lip creams, as well as gels and sprays for sun protection. It provides the skin with reliable protection from harmful UVB rays and helps to prevent damage from other environmental factors such as pollution, wind and dry air. Ethylhexyl Salicylate also helps to keep the skin healthy and smooth by reducing the likelihood of its damage from ultraviolet radiation.
