Naturium UV Reflect Antioxidant Sheer Sunscreen SPF 50 PA++++ 1.7 oz — Lightweight, Soft-Matte Finish

Naturium UV Reflect Antioxidant SPF 50 PA++++ is a lightweight, sheer facial sunscreen that delivers broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection with a soft-matte finish and antioxidant support.

This daily sunscreen combines high-level UV filters with antioxidant and skin-conditioning ingredients in a fast-absorbing serum texture. Designed for day-to-day wear under makeup or alone, the formula aims to feel weightless while resisting water for up to 40 minutes. It also includes InfraGuard to help defend against high-energy visible light commonly called blue light, and is free from parabens, gluten, and synthetic fragrance for easier skin compatibility.

How does this sunscreen feel on different skin types?

The texture is a silky serum that sinks in quickly and leaves a soft-focus, matte appearance that works well for combination, oily, and normal skin. Dry skin can still use it but may prefer a light moisturizer underneath to avoid any tightness. Sensitive skin users should patch-test first because of active chemical filters, though many find it non-irritating.

• Silky, lightweight serum—minimal residue
• Soft-matte finish reduces shine for oily/combo skin
• Compatible with most routines; layer with moisturizer if needed
• Patch test recommended for reactive skin

Which active ingredients protect skin and how often should you reapply?

The formulation uses Avobenzone (3%), Homosalate (10%), and Octisalate (5%) to provide broad-spectrum UV coverage, and it's water-resistant for 40 minutes. Apply a quarter-teaspoon to the face 15 minutes before sun exposure and reapply every two hours or immediately after swimming, sweating, or towel-drying to maintain protection.

• Active filters: Avobenzone, Homosalate, Octisalate
• Water-resistant up to 40 minutes
• Reapply every 2 hours or after water/sweat exposure
• Use 1/4 teaspoon for face; adjust if using on neck or décolletage

What skincare benefits beyond UV protection does this offer?

Beyond sunscreen actives, the formula includes squalane, raspberry ketone, and a bio-fermented powder blend to condition and support the skin barrier. InfraGuard helps address exposure to blue light, and the overall mix is designed to leave skin looking refined and less shiny while supporting skin health with antioxidant ingredients.

• Squalane provides lightweight hydration and barrier support
• Raspberry ketone and fermented powders offer antioxidant support
• InfraGuard targets high-energy visible (blue) light protection
• Delivers a soft-focus finish that complements makeup

Who is this for: Naturium UV Reflect Antioxidant SPF 50 PA++++ is suited for anyone seeking a high-SPF, lightweight facial sunscreen that layers well with makeup and daily skincare.
