Eucerin Sun Gel Creme SPF 50+ protects oily and acne prone skin from sun-induced skin damage with Advanced Spectral Technology and HEVIS light defense for very high UV protection, offering all-day oil and shine control tailored to dry, sensitive, oily or acne-prone skin.
NART: 69767-03300-22Dry touch gel-cream: a non-sticky, non-greasy sunscreen for the body
UV light is the main cause of sun-induced skin damage, but high-energy visible (HEVIS) light can also trigger free radicals that cause further stress to skin.
Eucerin Sun Gel-Cream Dry Touch Sensitive Protect SPF 50+ is an ultra-light, non- greasy sunscreen for the body. It’s clinically and dermatologically proven to be suitable for all skin types including sensitive, oily and acne-prone skin.
The gel-cream sunscreen offers very high UV protection: the UVA and UVB filters meet the high standards defined by Cosmetics Europe and the levels of UVA protection are higher than the EU minimum recommendation. Eucerin’s Advanced Spectral Technology combines these broadband and photostable UVA/UVB filters with Licochalcone A to neutralize free radicals caused by UV and HEVIS light. The formula also contains Glycyrrhetinic Acid, which supports skin’s own DNA repair mechanism, and Oil Control technology with mattifying pigments that leave an immediate dry touch finish on skin.
Eucerin Sun Gel-Cream Dry Touch Sensitive Protect SPF 50+ absorbs quickly and does not leave any residue on skin. It’s extra water-resistant, sweat resistant and ‘anti-sand’ (sand is less likely to stick to your skin). And, like all sun protection products in the Eucerin range, it is free from octinoxate and oxybenzone – UV filters known to be harmful to coral reefs – and is compliant with the Hawaii Reef Bill.
How To Use
Apply in the morning instead of or underneath your regular day care product.
Sun protection with a high SPF is particularly important if you are taking acne medication or have used a skin peeling product as both these treatments can make skin even more sensitive to the sun
Can be used in combination with other Eucerin Face Care products such as those in the Eucerin DERMOPURE range
Your skin is instantly protected from the sun – no waiting time required, follow with make-up if appropriate
Sun protection isn’t just for those bathing in the sun. Light to moderate exposure to the sun has a damaging effect to the skin too, and acne-prone skin is particularly susceptible to hyperpigmentation issues which are easily exacerbated by the sun. Thus, it is very important to include sun protection in your daily skincare routine.

Select the right product
Choose a product that offers the right level of protection for your skin. It should protect against UVA and UVB rays and offer HEVIS light defense. It should also be tailored to your skin type and condition.
Use the right amount
It’s important to use sufficient product and to reapply it regularly. You can use your palm to measure how much product to use. We recommend that – to cover your face, neck and décolleté – you use a thick line of cream that stretches from the tip of your middle finger down to your wrist.
Apply thoroughly
Some parts are easy to miss. Don’t forget the bridge of your nose and your neck.

- Licochalcone A
Licochalcone A is a powerful antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and skin-soothing ingredient. It is derived from the root of the Chinese Licorice plant (Glycyrrhiza Inflata) which uses natural compounds to protect its cells from excessive sunlight. When used in skincare products, Licochalcone A works to reduce inflammation and neutralize free radicals that negatively influence skin cells and accelerate the aging process. It helps to protect the deeper epidermal skin layers from sun-induced effects.
- Glycyrrhetinic Acid
Glycyrrhetinic Acid is derived from the roots of the Chinese Licorice plant − Glycyrrhiza Glabra − and is known for its antioxidant and skin-soothing properties. It helps to protect the skin cells in the deeper epidermal layers from harmful UV-induced free radicals and supports skin´s own DNA repair mechanism.
