Eco Elio SPF 50 Sustainable Sun Cream 150ml 'Extra Care' - Face & Body Sunscreen, Fragrance-Free, No Octocrylene or Microplastics

Not greasy, easy to apply and worked well. It felt moisturising at the same time as protecting. So good to know that it wouldn't damage sea life like most other sun creams. Also it doesn't contain dodgy ingredients that others have, so it felt much healthier for using every day. There was a perfect amount for 2 weeks use and it was a decent price. Really glad to have found this, highly recommend it.

I can’t believe this product is made with natural ingredients, it absorbs quickly, doesn’t leave a greasy white cast, fairly priced, leaves the skin dry to the touch but idrated, I absolutely love it and i have been recommending it to everyone I know! Will totally buy again!

Bought this as needed a F50 and wanted something not too toxic.The item came with out being wrapped in cellophane or any kind of security seal.That is a bit of a downside as it could be already used.

We love Eco Elio. Not only because if its sustainability values, but because the product has a super smooth texture and is therefore easy to apply. Also it's scentless, which my 11yr old daughter loves. She hates the usual, perfumed stuff and has even started putting sun cream on by herself this week. We're sold! This is our new sun cream brand going forward.

Wow!Impressed!This sinks in beautifully- leaving no grey cast over my medium/dark skin.Consistency is not too runny and not thick!Will be buying the larger tubes now.

☀️ I thought that this sun cream would be useful for some top-up sun protection on holiday in the UK, where the sun isn’t blisteringly hot, but nevertheless, it can damage your skin if you are outdoors for long periods of time. The factor is not the highest at 30, and I won’t be discarding my factor 50 for the hottest days any time soon.☀️ You get a reasonable volume in the tube, but it’s not going to last forever, and if you're contemplating buying more, some might be put off by the elevated cost of this product. What do you get that lifts it out of the pack, then? Well, everything is in German, which I don’t read, so I can’t tell at a glance from the pack exactly what you are getting. Looking at the online ingredient list and doing some research, everything seems safe for topical use, although a spot test is always recommended, and as with all these creams, your safety is your choice. There are a lot of stabilisers, thickening agents, waxes and sugars, vitamins E and B, and three different UV filter agents. Do some research to see if you have any sensitivity to these active ingredients. I cannot see any that are recognised as microplastics as advertised.☀️ The cream does rub in well, but not as well as spray lotion for the whole body. Its texture leads me to use it on areas where a little residue might help rather than hinder, such as the ears, nose, and back of the neck. It is not a vegan product, but it is not advertised as such. It does seem vegetarian, so long as you don’t mind beeswax.☀️ The smell is not unpleasant or overpowering, and the product is pleasant to use. I think that it is best kept for a combination with other products where full coverage is required, but to cover some exposed areas where you have covered up in hot sun, then it seems a reasonable choice. I use sunscreen when fishing, and although I don’t like residue on my hands, it can easily be cleaned off, and having this kind of protection while outdoors all day is very welcome. ✔️

Nice to see a suncream with strong eco credentials - and it seems to work well, being non greasy, fragrance free and absorbing well into my skin. It is not a brand I have encountered before but so far very impressed!

Looking at this sun cream I was a littleConcerned it did not have a uva star rating but I’m not sure if that’s a marketing thing. Looking into it, it has a uva as a minimum of 10 due to it being at least a third of the spf but it also says helps against uvb also meaning this is a broad spectrum sun screen.Now I’d did find myself going down a rabbit hole reading into all this but in short uvb gives you sunburn and is a result of being in direct sun uva can penetrate through clouds and glass and seems to be the cause of a more significant long term damage to the skin.I’m no expert whatsoever but what this shows to me is the uva star rating might be a bit of a gimmic.So I would say this is on the higher end of what I’d like to pay for sun cream but however this is the way we should all be goingThis is way more eco friendly than any other sun screen I have ordered.Being that the tube is 100% recyclableThe box is cardIt has no fragrance no nanoplastic or microplasticIt also doesn’t contain Octocrylene something again after a google that the fda is safe up to 10% so it doesn’t sound very friendly either.You also with the purchase are helping towards the reconstruction of coral reefs.I wish every company had such an environmentally friendly approach.So yes it may be expensive and this is why I have dropped a star but looking into it all a little more maybe we should all be prepared to pay a little more to try and help the planet and the future generations
