Neutrogena Age Shield Face Oil-Free Sunscreen is a high-SPF, broad-spectrum facial sunscreen lotion designed to protect skin from UVA and UVB damage, while helping prevent signs of premature aging such as fine lines and wrinkles.
Key Ingredients and Their Benefits
-
Avobenzone (3%) — a chemical UV filter that gives strong UVA protection, helping shield skin from UVA-induced aging and pigmentation.
-
Homosalate (15%) — a UVB filter, contributing to overall SPF and protecting against sunburn.
-
Octisalate (5%) — another UVB filter that boosts SPF and stabilises UV protection.
-
Octocrylene (10%) — UVB (and some UVA II) filter that also helps stabilise the sunscreen and make it more photostable, improving protection during sun exposure.
-
Antioxidants and skin-conditioning botanicals: including extracts like Feverfew (Chrysanthemum parthenium), Soybean extract (Glycine soja seed extract), and Vitamin E (Tocopheryl acetate) — these help neutralize free radicals, support skin health, and contribute to a brighter, more youthful-looking complexion.
