Facial day cream with SPF50+ for sensitive skin

Description

Cetaphil Daily Defence Moisturiser SPF50+ 50g is a lightweight, easily absorbed facial day cream that combines broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection with hydrating care for all skin types, including sensitive skin. Formulated with a blend of chemical and mineral UV filters including titanium dioxide, it provides very high SPF50+ photoprotection to help defend skin against the effects of daily sun exposure, while glycerin and vitamin E help maintain the skin’s natural protective barrier and keep it hydrated throughout the day.
