Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Bubble Plus One Tinted Daily Mineral Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 40:

How moisturizing is it?

Lightly moisturizing: Bubble Plus One Tinted Daily Mineral Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 40 has a moisturizing rating of 2.1 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Rather humectant. It has a low occlusivity of 0.8 out of 10 and a moderate humectancy of 3.4 out of 10, primarily due to Glycerin (est. ≈1.5%), Propanediol (est. ≈1.0%) and Lycium Barbarum Fruit Extract (est. ≈0.3%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Bubble Plus One Tinted Daily Mineral Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 40 has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

It contains Gluconolactone, an ingredient marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles. However, the studies supporting the anti-wrinkle claims of Gluconolactone provide insufficient evidence of its efficacy according to CreamScan Research Evaluation Standards. Therefore, this ingredient does not generate the anti-wrinkle rating.

Moisturizers, when used regularly, are proven to prevent wrinkle formation and even reduce existing wrinkles. Therefore, this product, like any other moisturizer, could deliver some anti-wrinkle effects through its moisturizing action.

Please refer to the Ratings section below for details of the anti-wrinkle rating calculation.

Sun protection

Bubble Plus One Tinted Daily Mineral Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 40 has an SPF of 40 and provides high sun protection. This level of protection is ideal for activities such as spending time at the beach, outdoor sports, or other activities involving prolonged sun exposure. It's important to apply sunscreen generously and reapply every two hours or after swimming or sweating to maintain effectiveness.
