Review on Eucerin Daily Protection Face Lotion by Sherita Dixon

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Warning: contains endocrine disruptor active ingredient octinoxate (not listed in preview)

I bought this because it's great value for zinc oxide/titanium dioxide sunscreen. But it's actually a mix of mineral (zinc/titanium dioxide) and chemical sunscreen ingredients. The Amazon product page doesn't show this as the active ingredients are suspiciously absent - instead of looking at the entire back panel with a peel-off lid, there's just an increase in inactive ingredients. The main active ingredient is octinoxate (7.5%), which is classified by the Environmental Working Group as a "higher toxicity UV filter" and has a hazard rating of 6/10. The other active ingredients are lower on the danger scale: ensulizol 2% 3/10, octisalat 4.5% 4/10 and titanium dioxide 2.38%, zinc oxide 4.85% both 2/10. Fits well and leaves no white streaks. I just want the manufacturer to replace Octinoxat with a safer UV protectant.
