SPF Moisturizer

Face Moisturizer with SPF

This advanced daily moisturizer with SPF 50 offers comprehensive protection against sun damage and environmental stressors. Its ultra-light, non-greasy formula is packed with potent antioxidants like green tea, pomegranate, and goji fruit extract, which work to visibly reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin tone, and enhance overall radiance. The fluid texture absorbs quickly, leaving a smooth, soft matte finish without any white cast, making it ideal for layering under makeup. It's designed to hydrate normal to oily and combination skin types, providing essential moisture without feeling heavy.

Oriva Scientific Assessment

This fluid moisturizer works by combining broad-spectrum chemical SPF 50 protection with a powerful blend of antioxidants. The UV filters shield skin from sun damage, while ingredients like green tea, pomegranate, and vitamin E neutralize free radicals and help reduce visible signs of aging. Its lightweight, non-greasy formula ensures comfortable wear and a smooth, soft matte finish, making it suitable for daily use under makeup.

Target User: Ideal for individuals with normal, oily, or combination skin types looking for a daily moisturizer that provides high-level sun protection and anti-aging benefits. It's particularly good for those concerned with fine lines, wrinkles, and dullness, who prefer a lightweight, non-greasy feel.

Avoid If: Those with very dry skin might find it insufficiently hydrating on its own. Individuals with known sensitivities or allergies to chemical UV filters should avoid this product.

Avoid / caution

  • individuals with known sensitivities to chemical UV filters
  • very dry skin types (may need additional hydration)
  • chemical UV filters (for sensitive individuals)
