Review

Results you may expect from using It Cosmetics Anti-Aging Armour Tinted Sunscreen SPF 50+:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using It Cosmetics Anti-Aging Armour Tinted Sunscreen SPF 50+:

  • Light moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 3.1 out of 10.
  • Little anti-wrinkle effect: It Cosmetics Anti-Aging Armour Tinted Sunscreen SPF 50+ has an anti-wrinkle rating of 0.5 out of 10, so you may expect a positive, although insignificant, effect on wrinkles.
  • Antioxidant protection.
  • Very high sun protection for prolonged sun exposure, such as spending the day at the beach, hiking, or outdoor sports.

How moisturizing is it?

Lightly moisturizing: It Cosmetics Anti-Aging Armour Tinted Sunscreen SPF 50+ has a moisturizing rating of 3.1 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Rather humectant. It has a low occlusivity of 1.7 out of 10 and a moderate humectancy of 4.5 out of 10, primarily due to Glycerin (est. ≈0.3%), Aluminum Hydroxide (est. ≈0.3%) and Caprylyl Glycol (est. ≈0.3%).

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

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, It Cosmetics Anti-Aging Armour Tinted Sunscreen SPF 50+ has a minimal anti-wrinkle rating of 0.5 out of 10.

It contains 2 active ingredients with proven anti-wrinkle efficacy:
    • Niacinamide (est. ≈0.3%),
       one of the most effective and well-researched anti-wrinkle ingredients.
    • Ascorbic Acid (est. ≈0.3%),
       or Vitamin C, a popular anti-wrinkle ingredient, yet with average efficacy confirmed by only one study.
Among others, It Cosmetics Anti-Aging Armour Tinted Sunscreen SPF 50+ also contains some ingredients marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles, specifically Pueraria Lobata Root Extract, Olea Europaea (Olive) Leaf Extract, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Folic Acid, Retinyl Palmitate, Palmitoyl Oligopeptide, and Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7. However, the studies supporting the anti-wrinkle claims of these ingredients provide insufficient evidence of efficacy according to CreamScan Research Evaluation Standards. Therefore, these ingredients do not contribute to 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 additional anti-wrinkle efficacy through its moisturizing action.
 

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

Antioxidant benefits

We estimate that It Cosmetics Anti-Aging Armour Tinted Sunscreen SPF 50+ is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Pueraria Lobata Root Extract (est. ≈0.3%), Citrus Grandis Peel Oil (est. ≈0.3%), Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Oil (est. ≈0.3%), and others.

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

It Cosmetics Anti-Aging Armour Tinted Sunscreen SPF 50+ has an SPF of 50 and provides very high sun protection. This level of protection is ideal for activities involving intense or prolonged sun exposure, such as spending the day at the beach, hiking, or outdoor sports. It is particularly recommended for individuals with fair skin, those at high risk of skin cancer, or in environments with intense sun exposure. Remember to apply sunscreen generously and reapply every two hours or after swimming or sweating to maintain effectiveness.

Ingredients explained

Water
Est. %50
Function
Origin
The most used ingredient in skincare. Its concentration defines the product texture: rich creams may have about 50% of water while a light jelly about 90%. Water doesn’t moisturize the skin by itself and is used in skincare as a solvent for other ingredients.
Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891)
Est. %12.1
Function
Origin
One of two the most commonly used mineral sunscreens. It can absorb UV light, including UVB – which causes burning, tanning, and even skin cancer. Also used as a colorant, titanium dioxide gives a product a bright white color.
Zinc Oxide
Est. %6.3
Function
Origin
A white mineral powder mainly used in skincare as a physical sunscreen. It protects against UVA light that leads to visible signs of aging, including wrinkles and fine lines. Zinc oxide can also be used as a colorant to enhance the whiteness of a product.

Potassium Sorbate
Est. %0.3
Function
Origin
A preservative widely used in food and personal care products, available from natural sources or synthetically produced. Potassium sorbate works by inhibiting the growth of yeasts, molds, and some bacteria.

Folic Acid
Est. %0.3
Function
Origin
A critical vitamin for the body that needs more research for topical applications.
Niacin
Est. %0.3
Function
Origin
An active form of vitamin B3 that is used to support and restore the healthy appearance of the skin, although it is less effective than Niacinamide.
Ascorbic Acid
Est. %0.3
Function
Origin

Also known as vitamin C, this multi-benefit ingredient has proven anti-wrinkle, antioxidant, and anti-pigmentation efficacy. It degrades easily when exposed to air and light, so it requires proper packaging to maintain its stability.

Biotin
Est. %0.3
Function
Origin
Biotin is an important nutrient that can cause weak hair and nails if deficient. Unfortunately, while biotin supplements have promising studies, topical biotin in creams and serums doesn’t have a large body of evidence to support its use.
Thiamine HCl
Est. %0.3
Function
Origin
Also known as vitamin B1, the benefits of this ingredient in skincare are not yet clear. It may have some benefits to energy metabolism, but this hasn't been confirmed. It has a typical, sulfur-like smell.
Retinyl Palmitate
Est. %0.3
Function
Origin
An esterified form of retinol – it combines retinol and palmitic acid into one molecule. Retinyl palmitate is less irritating than retinol but also much less effective in its anti-aging and acne-reducing effects.
Riboflavin
Est. %0.3
Function
Origin
Riboflavin, also known as Vitamin B2, is used in skincare as a coloring agent due to its bright, brilliant orange-yellow color. The research shows that it is a good antioxidant and can protect the skin from UV-induced damage.
Pantothenic Acid
Est. %0.3
Function
Origin
Also known as vitamin B5, this ingredient helps to restore healthy moisturization of the skin and is essential for good skin health. Due to poor stability and skin penetration, panthenol is usually preferred over pantothenic acid.
Tocopherol
Est. %0.3
Function
Origin

Simply another name for vitamin E. Tocopherol is a fantastic ingredient and especially beneficial for dry and inflamed skin. It has occlusive moisturizing, emollient, antioxidant, and photoprotective properties.

Chrysin
Est. %0.3
