MELATIME SUNSCREEN SUN GEL SPF 50+ VELVET TOUCH 50 GM

MELATIME SUN GEL SPF 50+ VELVET TOUCH

Advanced Daily UVA + UVB Protection | Lightweight Velvet-Touch Gel

Product Description

MELATIME SUN GEL SPF 50+ VELVET TOUCH is a high-protection daily sunscreen formulated to help protect the skin against the harmful effects of ultraviolet (UV) radiation, including UVA and UVB exposure.

Its hybrid photoprotective system combines organic UV filters such as Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Octocrylene, Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane (Avobenzone), and Benzophenone-3 (Oxybenzone), together with the mineral UV filters Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide.

The formula is further enriched with Niacinamide, Panthenol, Glycerin, Urea, Trehalose, Serine, Sodium Hyaluronate and other moisturizing ingredients, helping provide a comfortable, hydrated skin feel during daily sunscreen use.

The Velvet Touch Sun Gel concept is designed for a smooth, lightweight cosmetic finish, making it suitable for everyday application and convenient use as part of a facial skincare routine.

Broad-spectrum sunscreen protects against both UVA and UVB radiation. UVA exposure is associated with premature skin aging and pigmentation changes, while UVB is a major cause of sunburn. Regular sunscreen use is an important part of comprehensive photoprotection.

Key Photoprotective Ingredients

• Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate

Also known as Octyl Methoxycinnamate, this organic UV filter primarily contributes to UVB protection and helps reduce ultraviolet-induced erythema (sunburn).

• Octocrylene

An organic UV filter that contributes to UV protection, particularly in the UVB and short-wave UVA range, and can also contribute to the photostability of sunscreen formulations.

• Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane

Also known as Avobenzone, this is a UVA-absorbing filter that contributes to protection against longer-wavelength UVA radiation associated with cumulative photodamage and premature skin aging.

• Zinc Oxide

A mineral sunscreen ingredient that provides protection across the UVA and UVB portions of the ultraviolet spectrum. Zinc oxide is also commonly used in formulations intended for sensitive skin.

• Titanium Dioxide

A mineral UV filter that contributes primarily to protection against UVB and shorter-wavelength UVA radiation.

• Benzophenone-3

Also known as Oxybenzone, this organic UV filter absorbs ultraviolet radiation and contributes to the overall UV protection provided by the formulation.

The combination of organic and mineral filters makes this a hybrid sunscreen formulation, rather than a purely chemical or purely mineral sunscreen.

Skin-Hydrating & Conditioning Complex

In addition to UV filters, MELATIME SUN GEL SPF 50+ contains multiple ingredients designed to support skin hydration and conditioning:

• Glycerin – a humectant that helps attract and retain water in the outer layers of the skin.
• Sodium Hyaluronate – a form of hyaluronic acid that helps support skin hydration.
• Urea – a naturally occurring moisturizing-factor component that helps maintain skin hydration.
• Trehalose – a moisturizing ingredient that helps support water retention.
• Serine – an amino acid associated with the skin's natural moisturizing system.
• Panthenol – a skin-conditioning and moisturizing ingredient that helps support skin comfort.
• Pentylene Glycol & Caprylyl Glycol – moisturizing and formulation-supporting ingredients.
• Glyceryl Polyacrylate, Algin & Pullulan – film-forming and texture-supporting ingredients that contribute to the sensory characteristics of the gel formulation.

Together, these ingredients complement the sunscreen filters by helping maintain a comfortable, moisturized skin feel.

Niacinamide – Vitamin B3 Skin Support

Niacinamide, a form of vitamin B3, is included as a skin-conditioning ingredient.

Topical niacinamide has been studied for its ability to support the epidermal barrier and skin hydration, and clinical literature describes additional cosmetic dermatological applications including improvement in the appearance of uneven pigmentation and signs of photoaging.

In MELATIME SUN GEL, niacinamide complements the primary photoprotective function of the sunscreen while contributing additional skin-conditioning benefits.

Antioxidant & Skin-Conditioning Support

Tocopheryl Acetate, a vitamin E derivative, is included as a skin-conditioning ingredient and provides antioxidant-related support within the formulation.

Together with niacinamide and the moisturizing complex, these ingredients help make the product suitable for incorporation into a regular skincare routine.

Directions for Use

Apply generously and evenly to exposed areas of skin approximately 15 minutes before going outdoors.

Apply to the face, neck, ears and other exposed areas. Avoid direct contact with the eyes.

For continued protection during outdoor exposure, reapply at least every 2 hours, and reapply sooner after swimming, sweating or towel drying.

Sunscreen should be used together with other sun-protection measures such as shade, protective clothing, a wide-brimmed hat and UV-protective sunglasses.

Important Precautions

• For external use only.
• Avoid direct contact with the eyes.
• Do not apply to severely irritated or damaged skin.
• Discontinue use if significant irritation or an allergic reaction occurs.
• Sunscreen does not provide complete protection from UV radiation; avoid excessive sun exposure even when using sunscreen.
• Reapply regularly during prolonged outdoor exposure.
• Keep out of reach of children.
• For infants younger than 6 months, sunscreen use should be discussed with a healthcare professional.
