Sun Gel-Creme Oil Control Dry Touch SPF 50+

UV light is the main cause of sun-induced skin damage, but high-energy visible (HEVIS) light can also induce free radicals that cause further stress to skin.

Eucerin Sun Gel-Cream Oil Control SPF 50+ is an everyday facial sunscreen for oily and acne-prone skin. The Advanced Spectral Technology combines broadband and photostable UVA and UVB filters¹ for very high UV protection, also with Licochalcone A to neutralize free radicals caused by UV and HEVIS light. The sunscreen also includes Glycyrrhetinic Acid which supports skin’s own DNA repair mechanism.

Sebum-regulating Oil Control Technology with L-Carnitine and lipid-absorbing micro-pigments gives skin an immediate dry touch finish and a long-lasting anti-shine effect.

Eucerin Sun Gel-Cream Oil Control SPF 50+ is unperfumed and has an ultra-light, non-greasy texture. Clinical and dermatological studies prove very good skin tolerability on sensitive and acne-prone skin.

• Light texture
• Non-greasy
• Non sticky
• Absorbs quickly
• Non-comedogenic
• Suitable under make-up
• Unperfumed

• Apply in the morning instead of or underneath your regular day care product.
•  Sun protection with a high SPF is particularly important if you are taking acne medication or have used a skin peeling product as both these treatments can make skin even more sensitive to the sun
• Can be used in combination with other Eucerin Face Care products such as those in the Eucerin DERMOPURE range
• Your skin is instantly protected from the sun – no waiting time required, follow with make-up if appropriate
• Sun protection isn’t just for those bathing in the sun. Light to moderate exposure to the sun has a damaging effect to the skin too, and acne-prone skin is particularly susceptible to hyperpigmentation issues which are easily exacerbated by the sun. Thus, it is very important to include sun protection in your daily skincare routine.

• Apply generously before sun exposure and reapply frequently− especially after swimming, perspiring or toweling − to maintain the original protection
• Reducing the quantity will significantly lower the level of protection
• Do not stay too long in the sun, even while using a sunscreen product
• Over-exposure to the sun is a serious health threat
• Keep babies and young children out of direct sunlight
• Avoid contact with eyes
• Allow product to absorb completely, and avoid direct contact with textiles and hard surfaces to prevent staining

It’s not just UV rays that can damage skin. High-energy visible (HEVIS) light can also generate free radicals, cause photoaging (premature skin aging caused by the sun) and exacerbate the hyperpigmentation issues that oily and acne-prone skin is particularly prone to. Eucerin Sun Gel-Creme Oil Control Dry Touch SPF 50+ offers Advanced Spectral Technology that goes beyond UV to protect skin from the negative effects of HEVIS light too. The formula also supports skin’s own DNA repair mechanism and includes Eucerin’s proven Oil Control Technology which helps to control skin’s sebum and improve the condition and appearance of oily, acne-prone skin.

Advanced Spectral Technology
Superior broadband and photostable UVA/UVB filters¹ are combined with Licochalcone A to neutralize free radicals caused by UVA and HEVIS light.

DNA protection
The sunscreen for oily skin also contains Glycyrrhetinic Acid which supports skin’s own DNA repair mechanism.

Oil Control Technology
The formula’s sebum-regulating Oil Control Technology combines lipid absorbing micropigments and L-Carnitine, reducing the skins own sebum production. The lipid-absorbing micropigments absorb any remaining excess oils, so skin appears dry and matt.
