Glow Recipe's first sunscreen formula, the Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Sunscreen SPF 50, is a lightweight glow-boosting hybrid that's blendable, non-greasy and suitable for all skin tones. Chemical-physical sunscreens are becoming increasingly popular for combining the best features of both formulations to create safe and effective sun protection with added benefits. Glow Recipe's innovative approach fuses three chemical filters: homosalate, octisalate, and octocrylene with non-nano zinc oxide for broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection.
This highly anticipated release from the brand is packed with antioxidants, hyaluronic acid, B3 and soothing aloe. Customers demanded a watermelon-scented SPF (free from synthetic fragrance and essential oils) and the brand delivered with a nourishing and protective K-beauty-inspired formula that goes above and beyond.
