Hello
I apply Retin A at night time (at present approximately twice a week). I am wanting to increase this but only when I have a good sun screen. I am waiting for the Shiseido Anessa SPF 50+ (silver bottle) to arrive from ebay.
However at the moment I am using a sun screen from Tesco which only costs about £3. It is SPF 50 and UVA 5 stars ultra. My sister showed it to her dermatologist who said it was good but I can't believe something so cheap is really that good?
I would be very grateful (fawnie are you there please?) to hear if there are products in here which should be avoided? Or is it indeed a bargain and offers good protection from the sun!
The ingredients are (in the order written on the label): Aqua, Cera Alba, Cocoglycerides, Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane, Octocylene, Cetyl Dimethicone, Methylene Bis-Benzotriazolyl Tetramethylbutylphenol, Ethylehyl Salicylate, Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenol Trizine, PEG-15 Cocamine, Butylene Glycol, Isopropyl Palmitate, PEG-40 Stearate, Tocopheryl Acetate, Helianthus Annus seed oil, Allantoin, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Acylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Triethanolamine, Decyl Glucoside, Propylene Glycol, Xanthan Gum, Disodium EDTA, Phenoxyethanol, Ethylparaben, Methylparaben, Propylparaben, DMDM Hydantoin, Diazolidinyl Urea, BHT.
Thank you
