COMBINATION TO OILY SKIN

In this region, around 50% of women have a combination to oily skin*– which is distinguished by an abundance of sebum production on their T-zone (nose, forehead, chin) or on their entire face. When exposed to the sun’s UV rays and increased temperatures, the skin can become aggravated, resulting in the over-production of sebum leading to inconvenient problems of shine, enlarged pores, uneven skin tone, lack of radiance, and sometimes even acne.

While women with any skin type are encouraged to protect their skin from the sun’s harmful rays, it is important for those with combination to oily skin to use a specific sun care regime that provides daily protection from the harmful UV rays, while enhancing the overall quality of their skin.

BIODERMA’s Photoderm NUDE Touch SPF50+ caters to the specific needs for sun protection for combination to oily skin by providing a “bare skin effect” with its non-greasy texture; and immediate mattifying properties for 8h oil control, the long-term treatment for blemishes and daily protection from the sun.

THE FORMULA

Photoderm NUDE Touch SPF50+’s active formula offers very high sun protection with very safe 100% mineral filters that ensure UVB and UVA ray protection. This combination ensures SPF50+ protection with an ideal 3:1 UVA-UVB ratio and provides sebum absorption for excess shine control, with exceptional skin tolerance levels.

With the incorporation of the CELLULAR BIOPROTECTION^TM patent that stems from BIODERMA’s sun expertise, Photoderm NUDE Touch SPF50+’s formula guarantees deep DNA protection for skin cells and prevents photoaging.  

Containing the liquid-to-powder technology, the formula works to transform from a liquid texture to a powdery finish upon contact with the skin, providing incredible lightness and optimum glide for perfectly even spreading upon application of the product.

In just 30 seconds, Photoderm NUDE Touch SPF50+ helps to achieve a “bare skin effect” and provides a perfect ultra-matte finish. The unique formula works to absorb excess oils with its mattifying powders that support oil control for up to 8 hrs.

Featuring anti-blemish properties, the Photoderm NUDE Touch SPF50+ formula also contains BIODERMA’s Fluidactiv^TM patent, a complimentary active ingredient that works to improve the quality of sebum and regulate its production, helping to achieve skin with less blemishes and more radiance.
