If this is the only moisturizer that you apply at a time, check out our suggestions for different skin types:
Oily and combination skin: Moisturizing rating of 2 - 6 with high Humectancy and low Occlusivity
Normal skin: Moisturizing rating of 4 - 7 with high Humectancy and moderate Occlusivity
Dry skin: Moisturizing rating of 7 - 10 with high Humectancy and high Occlusivity

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using MDSolarSciences Mineral Creme SPF 50 Broad Spectrum UVA-UVB:
Quite moisturizing: MDSolarSciences Mineral Creme SPF 50 Broad Spectrum UVA-UVB 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, due to the high content of Dimethicone (est. ≈50.0%) and Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride (est. ≈6.0%).
Please refer to the Ratings section below for details of the moisturizing rating calculation.
According to CreamScan analysis, MDSolarSciences Mineral Creme SPF 50 Broad Spectrum UVA-UVB has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.
It contains Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate, an ingredient marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles. However, the studies supporting the anti-wrinkle claims of Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate 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.
MDSolarSciences Mineral Creme SPF 50 Broad Spectrum UVA-UVB 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.

According to various studies, a formula made up of 10% humectants will significantly increase skin hydration. Some studies also suggest that any further icrease in the consentration of humectants does not translate inty any more hydration and may even be dehydrating.
To achieve maximum Humectancy, the product should have humectants with a total score of 10 and more.

The most occlusive product possible is 100% petrolatum (hello Vaseline Jelly). According to studies, however, even 10% petrolatum can achieve almost the same mosturizing effect.
The occlusive properties of petrolatum are at least twice as superior as other occlusive ingredients. This is why, in order to match the moisturizing efficacy of 10% petrolatum, a product needs to contain at least 20% of other occlusives.
Our benchmark for maximum Occlusivity is 20 (and the petrolatum score is always doubled).
