Questions and answers
What makes innisfree Daily Mild Sunscreen a great fit for mature skin?
This sunscreen is a great fit because it protects your skin with UV filters while keeping it feeling soft and calm with glycerin and aloe. It is very unlikely to cause irritation, though it lacks specialized ingredients like retinoids or peptides to directly target wrinkles.
Which ingredients make this sunscreen a good fit for mature skin?
Glycerin and aloe barbadensis leaf extract make this sunscreen a good fit for mature skin by providing essential hydration and soothing benefits. It also uses modern UV filters to protect against sun damage while maintaining a safe and gentle formula for daily wear.
What does Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine do for mature skin?
Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine helps protect mature skin from UV damage by absorbing sunlight efficiently and staying stable, which prevents premature aging caused by the sun. This ingredient is unlikely to break down quickly in light, keeping your skin guarded against UV rays throughout the day.
Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 2026Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 2008
What does Ethylhexyl Triazone do for mature skin?
Ethylhexyl Triazone is a UV filter that helps protect mature skin from sun damage and premature aging caused by ultraviolet rays. Encapsulating this ingredient in lipid microparticles is unlikely to irritate the skin while keeping the protection on the surface where it works best.
Where does this sunscreen go in a skincare routine for mature skin?
This sunscreen goes at the end of your morning routine after applying a cleanser, hydrating toner, and moisturizer. It effectively protects against UV rays while keeping your skin calm and hydrated, though it does not contain specialized ingredients like retinoids or peptides for wrinkles and fine lines.
Can I use it with retinol, and in what order?
You can use this sunscreen with retinol by applying your retinol first and finishing your morning routine with this sunscreen. It is a great fit for your skin, protecting against UV rays while keeping skin hydrated and calm, though it does not contain specialized ingredients to directly address wrinkles and fine lines.
How often should I use this sunscreen?
This sunscreen is a great fit for your mature skin, providing strong UV protection along with helpful soothing and hydrating benefits to keep your skin calm and soft.
Can it clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for mature skin?
Innisfree Daily Mild Sunscreen is unlikely to cause breakouts for mature skin, as it has a very low risk of clogging pores and features a safe formula without harsh ingredients. However, individual reactions can vary, and some shoppers do report occasional sensitivity.
Is it fragrance-free and alcohol-free?
It has no drying alcohol and contains fragrance (parfum). Behenyl alcohol, c20-22 alcohols, and cetearyl alcohol are fatty alcohols, which soften the skin.
What the research says
A single application of a moisturizing fluid containing hyaluronic acid 1%, glycerin 5%, and Centella asiatica stem cells extract significantly increased skin hydration by 29% and reduced transepidermal water loss at 24 hours compared to baseline and an untreated control site in twenty healthy women.
Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017Maximal topical applications of 6% bemotrizinol in a model sunscreen formulation did not result in meaningful systemic exposure in humans.
Regulatory Toxicology and Pharmacology, 2023Microencapsulation of ethylhexyl triazone in lipid microparticles significantly reduced its in vivo human stratum corneum penetration by 45.7% compared to the nonencapsulated sunscreen.
Skin Pharmacology and Physiology, 2019A topical sunscreen containing octyl triazone, phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid, and methylbenzylidene camphor prevented UVB-induced suppression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 expression and mixed-lymphocyte reaction in epidermal cell cultures compared to control sunscreens with comparable SPF lacking octyl triazone.
Toxicology in Vitro, 1994A cream combining propolis, tea tree oil, and Aloe vera reduced erythema scars, acne severity index, and total lesion count better than erythromycin cream in sixty patients with mild to moderate acne vulgaris compared to placebo.
Clinical Pharmacology, 2018Topical aloe vera gel significantly accelerated split-thickness skin graft donor-site healing compared to placebo in 12 patients, but showed no significant difference in pain relief.
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2018Topical application of Aloe vera cream reduced postoperative pain at rest and during defecation, accelerated wound healing at two weeks, and decreased analgesic requirements in patients after open hemorrhoidectomy compared to placebo.
Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine, 2010The emollient V0034CR significantly reduced TEWL compared to vehicle and vehicle plus glycerol, and significantly increased corneometry scores compared to vehicle and vehicle plus petrolatum in healthy volunteers with dry skin, demonstrating combined barrier function improvement from petrolatum and hydration improvement from glycerol.
Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2020Ten days of treatment with a cream containing 20% glycerin significantly increased skin hydration measured by corneometer values in 17 healthy volunteers compared to a placebo cream, but showed no influence on transepidermal water loss or skin sensitivity to an irritating surfactant.
International Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2001Niacinamide/glycerin body moisturizers provided better rapid and prolonged improvement of cosmetic xerosis through functional improvement of stratum corneum barrier function compared to no treatment and conventional moisturizers in female subjects.
