Bioderma Photoderm Mineral Fluide SPF50+ is based on an exclusively mineral sunscreen, combining zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. These two physical filters act by reflecting and diffusing UV rays (UVA and UVB) on the skin's surface, without penetrating it, making it a suitable option for reactive skin intolerant of chemical filters, as well as atopic or sensitized skin. The anhydrous (water-free) formula is enriched with caprylic/capric triglycerides and dicaprylyl ether, giving it a fluid, non-occlusive feel. Shea oil (Butyrospermum Parkii) and tocopherol (vitamin E) provide emollient and antioxidant properties respectively, helping to limit oxidative stress induced by sun exposure. Soybean oil (Glycine Soja Oil) completes the lipid profile with essential fatty acids. Silica plays a matifying role, making this product particularly suitable for combination to oily skin. This fluid is also suitable for pregnant women and infants, as it contains no organic UV filters.
Written review of the BeautyDecoded application -
very well tolerated, even on ultra-sensitive skin
The only sun cream tolerated by my skin, hyper-sensitized by the use of overly aggressive cosmetics. I don't use it every day, so I can't say whether it's comedogenic or not. But occasionally, to protect dry, irritated skin, it does the job. The texture could be less fluid, perhaps, but that's a detail for me. It doesn't burn my skin, which is the main thing right now.
