Drunk Elephant Umbra Tinte Physical Defense, 2 oz

Product Information

It's quite the multi-tasker: an emollient and water-binding ingredient but also an emulsifier and can be used for stabilization purposes. A helper ingredient that helps to neutralize the metal ions in the formula (they usually come from water) so it stays nice longer.

My skin has reacted positively to Drunk Elephant’s products, especially the Protini Polypeptide Cream, which is my all time favorite moisturizer. These consumer reviews are administered by Bazaarvoice applying the Bazaarvoice Authenticity Policy. But no need to take it from me—take it from the strangers who have been complimenting me on my skin. Drunk Elephant avoids the “Suspicious 6” (Essential Oils, Drying Alcohols, Silicones, Chemical Screens, Fragrance/Dyes and SLS) that they suspect disrupt skin health and are the root of almost every skin issue they see. Once inside the skin, it hydrates, but not from the outside - putting pure water on the skin (hello long baths!

I love that SPF, but I'm still looking for one that I can wear daily and fit in well with my skincare routine, which includes cleanser, eye cream, moisturizer, and SPF.

Drunk Elephant was born out of founder Tiffany Masterson’s ongoing struggle with a range of skin complaints. It's traditionally used in South Africa to massage babies with and as a body lotion for face, feet, and hands. When we made Umbra, we tested it on every skin color, from very fair to very dark, to make sure it worked on everyone.

One of them is that it's a precursor for the biosynthesis of superstar moisturizer, hyaluronic acid. A clear, light yellow liquid that is used to coat pigments (such as inorganic sunscreen agents or colorants) in cosmetic products. Case in point: the Umbra Tinte Physical Daily Defense SPF 30 (60ml), a lightweight serum that shields skin from environmental harm whilst delivering a tinted glow. It is very difficult to formulate a sunscreen without using chemical sunscreens or silicones, but we have done just that.Umbra Sheer™ is formulated without any chemical sunscreens, which can be sensitizing and not as beneficial to skin as the naturally derived physical alternative zinc oxide. If it's not already abundantly clear, when it comes to products, I’m terrified of change—not to mention the breakouts and greasy face that accompany it. It also gives a "slow-release" effect to oil-loving active ingredients and measurably reduces trans-epidermal water loss (that's pretty much a synonym of saying that it moisturizes the skin).
