How moisturizing is it?

Quite moisturizing: Bali Body Watermelon Tanning Oil SPF 6 has a moisturizing rating of 5.0 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? It is purely occlusive. It has zero Humectancy (we didn't find any humectant ingredients on the ingredient list) and a maximum Occlusivity of 10 out of 10, primarily due to the high content of Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Oil (est. ≈50.0%), Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil (est. ≈22.0%) and Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil (est. ≈11.0%).

Please refer to the Ratings section below for details of the moisturizing rating calculation.

Antioxidant benefits

We estimate that Bali Body Watermelon Tanning Oil SPF 6 is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Oil (est. ≈50.0%).

A key benefit of antioxidants is their ability to reduce oxidative stress caused by free radicals and therefore prevent accelerated skin aging. Studies also show that antioxidants can protect against environmental damage such as UV radiation and pollution, and help reduce inflammation and skin redness.

Sun protection

With an SPF 6 Bali Body Watermelon Tanning Oil SPF 6 provides a minimal level of sun protection. Products with SPF below 15 are generally recommended for incidental sun exposure, such as brief outdoor activities. They can claim to protect against sunburn, but not against early skin aging.

For more extended or intense sun exposure, higher SPF values are recommended. The FDA recommends the daily use of a broad spectrum sunscreen with an SPF 15 or higher, even on cloudy days.
