Having combination skin has always proved to be tricky when trying to find a good moisturizer to block UVA and UVB rays without further making my skin oily. Many creams are too thick or contain ingredients that increase the shine factor to my face, which I attempt to avoid at all costs. I've heard good things about Institut' DERMed's products, so I decided to give their recently launched Sun Protective Cream a try.
Institut' DERMed has two Sun Protective Creams with broad spectrum protection from UVA and UVB rays. There is one for dry skin, which is a rich cream and has an SPF of 15; and one for oily skin types, which is a light lotion with an SPF of 25. The Sun Protective Cream for oily skin is oil free featuring full spectrum UVA/UVB sunscreen with titanium dioxide and zinc oxide.
The Sun Protective Cream glides on smooth without that typical greasy moisturizer feeling and is quickly absorbed into your skin. It's a a non-comedogenic sun protective cream that also contains aloe vera gel to soothe and heal troubled skin, so if you suffer from acne or any skin inflammation, aloe vera has wonderful healing properties. Another benefit to using this cream is it moisturizes and protects against solar induced free radical reactions that cause skin discoloration and premature aging, which is a great benefit for all of us, especially when you don't want to look older (due to premature wrinkling) than you actually are.
If you have been in search of a oil free moisturizer with full spectrum protection from UVA/UVB, I definitely recommend this product. If you have dry skin and have tried Institut' DERMed's Sun Protective Cream for dry skin, let me know how it worked for you.
Institut' DERMed's Sun Protective Cream can be purchased at retail outlets nationally. You can find a location nearest you by calling 1-866-i-dermed.
