MONSIEUR J Perfect Proof Sun Stick

What is this product?

A chemical filter sun stick built on four modern UV filters with centella type soothing ingredients near the end, and a fragrance free, drying alcohol free ingredient list that suits sensitive skin.

What makes it different?

The formula relies on four organic filters, including Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate at item 10 and Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine at item 16, rather than older short wave filters alone. Centella derived soothing ingredients, including Centella Asiatica Extract at item 17, Madecassic Acid, Asiaticoside and Asiatic Acid, appear in the later half of the list. The list contains no fragrance, no essential oils and no drying alcohols, and calamine at item 22 adds a mild soothing touch.
