01

What it does

Protection depends on the finished product and SPF/UVA testing, not on counting filters in the INCI list.

02

Who may benefit

Choose according to tolerance, texture and declared protection.

03

Compatibility

Antioxidants and dark-spot routines; sunscreen remains the final morning step.

04

Precautions

Do not reconstruct SPF from the ingredient list. Use an adequate amount and reapply according to conditions of use.

05

How to use it

Morning, as a complete SPF 50 product.

06

Concentrations

The percentage cannot be inferred from INCI order. WAI LAB shows it only when stated by a verifiable source.

HOW TO READ IT

What it means in the INCI list?

In the European Union, ingredients above 1% are listed in descending order by weight; below 1%, they may appear in any order. Their position therefore cannot be used to calculate an exact percentage.

Its position helps you understand the formula, but does not on its own establish effectiveness or an exact percentage.
