A broad-spectrum chemical sunscreen built on octocrylene, homosalate, and avobenzone (listed as butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane), with butyloctyl and ethylhexyl salicylate rounding out UV coverage. Phospholipids, sphingolipids, and glycerin are worked in so the finish doesn't feel drying, and the silicone base gives it a smooth, wearable texture under makeup. It fits The Ordinary's usual approach of chemical filters at an accessible price.
