Key ingredients
These are the ingredients Benton highlights for this product, cross-checked against general dermatological and cosmetic-chemistry sources, not a full INCI list.
Fragrance: No fragrance or essential oil appears in the ingredient list on file; brand confirmation pending.
| Ingredient | What it is | What it does for skin |
|---|---|---|
| Diethylamino hydroxybenzoyl hexyl benzoate | A modern chemical UVA filter (Uvinul A Plus). | Absorbs long-wave UVA light and is photostable. |
| Ethylhexyl triazone | A modern chemical UVB filter (Uvinul T 150). | Absorbs UVB light efficiently and is photostable. |
| Methylene bis-benzotriazolyl tetramethylbutylphenol | A photostable filter (Tinosorb M) that both absorbs and scatters UV light. | Gives broad UVA and UVB protection and helps stabilize other filters. |
| Panthenol | Pro-vitamin B5, which converts to pantothenic acid once absorbed into skin. | Hydrates as a humectant, supports wound healing, and has anti-inflammatory, soothing effects on irritated skin. |
| Dipotassium glycyrrhizate | A water-soluble salt derived from licorice root. | Used to calm the look of redness and irritation. |
| Sodium hyaluronate | The salt form of hyaluronic acid, commonly used for its water solubility and stability in formulas; molecular weight varies by product rather than being uniformly smaller. | Draws and holds moisture the same way hyaluronic acid does; how easily it absorbs depends on the specific molecular weight used, which formulas don't always disclose. |
| Centella asiatica extract | A plant extract, also called Cica or tiger grass, long used in traditional medicine for wound healing. | Calms redness and irritation and supports the skin barrier; some preclinical and limited clinical research suggests it may also support collagen production, though more rigorous long-term studies are still needed to confirm this. |
