Ask healthwords AI
Product Summary
UV light is the main cause of sun-induced skin damage, but high-energy visible (HEVIS) light can also induce free radicals that cause further stress to the skin.
Eucerin Photoaging Control Sun Fluid SPF50 is an everyday facial sunscreen for all skin types.
The Advanced Spectral Technology combines broadband and photostable UVA/UVB filters for high UV protection with Licochalcone A to neutralise free radicals caused by UV and Hevis light.
The anti-age sunscreen also includes Glycyrrhetinic Acid which supports the skin’s own DNA repair mechanism.
The formula is further enriched with short- and long-chained Hyaluronic Acid and visibly reduces wrinkles on the face and décolleté.
Eucerin Photoaging Control Sun Fluid SPF50 is unperfumed and has a pleasant light texture that absorbs quickly. Clinical and dermatological studies prove very good skin tolerability on sensitive skin.

Pharmacist FAQs Answered
What is Eucerin Photoaging Control Sun Fluid SPF 50 used for?
Eucerin Photoaging Control is a daily facial sunscreen providing broad-spectrum SPF 50 protection. It protects your skin from UVA, UVB, and high-energy visible light (HEVIS)—all three of which are damaging to skin and can cause skin cancer and promote signs of ageing like wrinkles and fine lines. It's designed for mature and sensitive skin and may be applied year-round to prevent sun-caused ageing.
How does this sunscreen reduce signs of ageing?
This sun fluid not only protects but is also infused with hyaluronic acid to keep your skin hydrated and firm, and glycyrrhetinic acid to support your skin repair process. It also contains Licochalcone A, a powerful antioxidant that helps to neutralise free radicals—unstable molecules that can damage your skin and contribute to premature ageing. Worn daily, it will smooth wrinkles on the face and décolleté (chest).
Can this sunscreen be applied under makeup?
Yes, absolutely. Eucerin Photoaging Control has a light, non-greasy consistency that absorbs well and isn't sticky, so it's an excellent base for makeup. It's also non-comedogenic so that it won't clog pores. It's thus perfect for people with breakouts or sensitive skin.
Is this sunscreen good for all skin types?
Yes, this SPF 50 sunscreen can be used on all skin types, including mature and sensitive skin. It is unperfumed, which decreases the risk of irritation, and dermatologists have clinically tested it for acceptable skin tolerance. Regardless of your skin type, whether dry, oily, or combination, it's a good choice for daily sun protection.
How and when should I apply this sunscreen?
Apply liberally in the morning as a final step to your skincare regimen before leaving home. Apply every 2 hours, more often if you're sweating, swimming, or towel-drying. Applying a small amount decreases its protective strength. Attempt not to go outdoors between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. when the UV rays are the strongest.
Will this sunscreen stain clothes or other fabrics?
Yes, it can. Like most high-SPF products, this sun fluid will stain light-colored clothing yellow if it's not fully absorbed. To prevent this, let the product sink into your skin thoroughly before getting dressed, and avoid letting it touch clothing or hard surfaces right after application.
Is this for kids, or should it be used by adults only?
This product is for adult skin, i.e., those concerned about ageing or sun spots. For kids, particularly infants and toddlers, it's best to use sunscreens specifically designed for young, sensitive skin. Please avoid exposing children to direct sunlight whenever possible and ask your pharmacist for advice on the best alternatives.
What are the ingredients in this composition that help in skin repair?
The star ingredients are:
- Glycyrrhetinic Acid - helps your skin's DNA repair process
- Hyaluronic Acid - hydrates and reduces fine lines
- Licochalcone A - protects against free radical damage induced by UV and HEVIS light
These ingredients, together, protect, repair, and strengthen the skin barrier in the long run.
