Lovi Assistant explains
- Offers moderate hydration for your dry skin with glycerin and betaine, which help attract and retain moisture, but lacks sufficient emollients to fully address flakiness.
- The formula provides excellent sun protection with ethylhexyl triazone and bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine, which are beneficial for overall skin health.
- The product is safe for your dry and sensitive skin, as it contains soothing ingredients like licorice root extract and lavender flower extract and avoids harsh irritants.
How to apply
- Use this moisturizing sunscreen daily in your morning routine. Reapply every two hours if you are staying outdoors.
- Apply this product at the very end of your morning routine right after your regular moisturizer.
- Gently pat a nickel-sized amount of the moisturizing sunscreen evenly across your face and neck.
- Apply this product onto clean, dry skin before you go outside into the sun.
- Avoid the immediate eye area and do a patch test before your first use to check for sensitivity.

Questions and answers
How well does Our Vegan Basic Daily Sun Cream work for dry sensitive skin?
This sun cream works moderately well for your dry sensitive skin, offering reliable sun protection and soothing comfort, but it lacks enough rich softening ingredients to fully stop flakiness. A product of this type needs extra hydrating and barrier-repairing ingredients like ceramides and Centella Asiatica to keep dry skin fully smooth and comfortable.
Which ingredients make it a good fit for dry sensitive skin?
Glycerin and betaine help attract and retain moisture for your dry skin, while licorice root extract and lavender flower extract safely calm sensitivity. However, to truly care for dry skin, this type of product needs rich emollients and barrier-repairing ingredients like ceramides and Centella Asiatica to fully address flakiness.
What does Titanium Dioxide do for dry sensitive skin?
Titanium Dioxide protects dry sensitive skin from UV rays by absorbing them, and it is unlikely to cause irritation or allergic reactions. Because this skin type easily loses moisture and reacts to chemical filters, it needs mineral-based sunscreens with soothing and hydrating ingredients to keep the skin calm and comfortable.
Current Problems in Dermatology, 2021Photodermatology, Photoimmunology & Photomedicine, 2016
What does Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate do for dry sensitive skin?
Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate is a sunscreen ingredient that helps protect dry sensitive skin from sun damage without causing irritation. Because it stays stable in the sun, it reliably shields your face throughout the day.
Where does it go in a skincare routine for dry sensitive skin?
Apply this sunscreen as the final step of your morning routine after cleansing and toning. It provides moderate hydration with glycerin and betaine while protecting against the sun, though dry skin needing relief from flakiness works best with rich oils and butters.
Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017Molecules, 2024
Can I use it with retinol, and in what order?
You can use this moisturizing spf in the morning after your toner, followed by your retinol at night. Because this product works for dry skin but lacks enough rich smoothing ingredients to fully soften flakiness, dry skin needs a product with richer emollients and heavier barrier-protecting ingredients to keep skin soft and smooth.
How often should I use it?
You can use this moisturizing spf every morning to protect your dry sensitive skin from the sun. Daily application helps maintain moisture and shields your skin, though this skin type also needs richer emollients and plant oils to fully prevent flakiness.
Can it clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for dry sensitive skin?
This product is unlikely to clog pores or cause breakouts for dry sensitive skin, as it avoids common heavy pore-clogging ingredients. However, it lacks sufficient richer softening ingredients to fully care for dry flakiness, so a sunscreen of this type needs extra oils, ceramides, and rich moisturizers to keep dry skin smooth and comfortable.
Is it fragrance-free and alcohol-free?
It has no fragrance and contains drying alcohol (alcohol).
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, 2017A combination of Aloe barbadensis leaf extract and trimethylglycine in a 1:1 mass ratio synergistically increased aquaporin 3 expression by up to 380% in keratinocytes and safely improved skin hydration in healthy volunteers.
Molecules, 2024Soaps containing betaine caused the least skin irritation compared to other tested soaps in twenty-eight healthy subjects, though irritation did not decrease with increasing concentrations of betaine.
Skin Research and Technology, 2003Microfine titanium dioxide does not penetrate human skin when formulated in an oil-in-water emulsion with the pigment dispersed in the aqueous phase, compared to oily dispersions and liposomal encapsulation which allow deeper skin penetration.
International Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2000Replacing microsized titanium dioxide and zinc oxide with nanoparticles in sunscreens eliminates opaqueness and alters UV protection balance while inducing (photo)cyto- and genotoxicity and penetrating viable skin layers during long-term exposures.
Nanotechnology, Science and Applications, 2011Microfine zinc oxide and titanium dioxide do not penetrate the stratum corneum of porcine skin in vitro, indicating that their use in sunscreens does not pose a health risk from internal exposure.
Toxicology in Vitro, 2006Oral and dermal administration of Uvinul A plus resulted in three major urinary metabolites accounting for 52% of the oral dose, with a very low estimated daily systemic exposure of 8.1-9.3 μg/d in volunteers not intentionally exposed.
International Journal of Hygiene and Environmental Health, 2020Maximal topical applications of 6% bemotrizinol in a model sunscreen formulation did not result in meaningful systemic exposure in humans.
Regulatory Toxicology and Pharmacology, 2023Topical green tea extract significantly improved clinical symptoms, tear breakup times, and meibomian gland health compared to standard treatment in patients with dry eye and Meibomian Gland Dysfunction.
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2017Topical low-dose green tea extract reduces UVB-induced p53 expression and apoptosis in human skin keratinocytes compared to placebo.
Experimental Dermatology, 2009An anti-acne hydrogel containing Aloe barbadensis, Garcinia mangostana, and Camellia sinensis extracts showed superior antiacne and antiblotch activities compared to 1% clindamycin gel in sixty subjects with mild-moderate acne.
Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2019
Why other sunscreens fit dry sensitive skin better
Cosmetic formulations containing 5% Centella asiatica extract showed the best efficacy in improving skin moisture and decreasing transepidermal water loss, while also exhibiting antiinflammatory properties in 25 volunteers compared to baseline measurements.
Indian Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2016In 50 participants with sensitive skin, a Ceramide NP C15-containing emollient improved skin barrier function with a significant reduction in transepidermal water loss and induced modest changes in skin microbiota compared to the vehicle.
