Octocrylene is a scientifically backed ingredient used in safe, controlled amounts, ensuring our Luxe Soleil Hybrid SPF 50 delivers excellent sun protection while adhering to the highest safety standards. Here are a few points on this ingredient:

1. Carefully Regulated Levels:

In Luxe Soleil Hybrid SPF 50, Octocrylene is used at FDA-approved levels (5%), within the safety thresholds established by regulatory bodies. Our formulation has been rigorously tested to ensure compliance with these standards, guaranteeing it provides broad-spectrum UV protection without compromising safety.

2. Broad-Spectrum Efficacy:

Octocrylene is crucial for absorbing UVB rays and stabilizing other active sunscreen ingredients like Homosalate and Octisalate. This ensures the sunscreen offers long-lasting, effective protection from the sun’s damaging rays without degrading in sunlight. The hybrid nature of Luxe Soleil—combining both mineral and chemical filters—enhances this protective barrier, providing superior protection while minimizing risks.

3. Low Penetration:

In our formulation, Octocrylene has minimal skin penetration. Studies show that when used topically, it remains primarily on the skin’s surface to block UV radiation. 

4. Addressing Sensitive Skin:

Any sunscreen ingredient can cause irritation for those with sensitive skin. However, Luxe Soleil’s hybrid formula balances chemical and mineral filters, including Zinc Oxide, which helps minimize sensitivity while still providing comprehensive UV protection. If irritation occurs, switching to a mineral-only sunscreen may be advisable.
