The **Réflexe Solaire SPF50+ Avène** is a sun protection specifically formulated for sensitive skin, based on a combination of new-generation organic UV filters. The combination of **Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate (DHHB)**, **Ethylhexyl Triazone**, **Phenylene Bis-Diphenyltriazine** and **Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine (Tinosorb S)** ensures photochemically stable broad-spectrum UVA/UVB coverage, limiting filter degradation under light exposure. Avène Thermal Spring Water**, the brand's core ingredient, provides documented soothing and anti-irritant properties, particularly relevant for reactive epidermis. The formula also includes **Tocopherol** (vitamin E) and **Tocopheryl Glucoside**, two antioxidants that neutralize free radicals generated by UV radiation, helping to limit cellular oxidative stress. Emollients such as **Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride** and **Dicaprylyl Carbonate** ensure a protective film without excessive occlusion. This product is suitable for skin that is sensitive, intolerant or prone to reactions to sunscreens, as well as atopic skin requiring reliable daily protection without unnecessary fragrance or potentially irritating ingredients.

I don't think I'll be buying this product again as it made my skin very greasy. It may be effective, but it doesn't correspond to my normal to combination or even oily skin type.
