Product Information

For Delicate Facial Skin - The formula with Q10 prevents and fights the appearance of sun induced fine lines, wrinkles and pigment spots. Developed for normal/dry skin types. The light formula with moisturised & smooth skin feeling makes this sunscreen ideal for every day use. The formula is ophthalmologically approved (aka eye friendly). Skin compatibility dermatologically approved NIVEA SUN Protect & Bronze has two desirable effects: first of all, it protects the skin from harmful UV rays, but it also activates the individual, natural tanning process – without being a self-tanner. NIVEA SUN Protect & Bronze cleverly unites sun protection and long-lasting tanning. When the skin is exposed to UV rays, it starts a protective mechanism by naturally producing the brown pigment called melanin. Melanin gives the skin its colour and is a natural protective shield for the cell. Getting a tan is actually part of the skin´s protection mechanism. NIVEA SUN has integrated an active ingredient that activates this simple yet brilliant natural skin mechanism. The key ingredient of the unique NIVEA SUN Protect & Bronze range is the Pro Melanin extract, which significantly activates the skin’s melanin production within your skin. Even after sunbathing, the natural melanin production remains activated. NIVEA SUN Protect & Bronze products support the skin’s natural ability to develop its long-lasting tan, while providing reliable skin protection. We have never used oxybenzone in our European NIVEA sunscreen products as this UV filter does not meet the high standards we set for our sunscreens. Octinoxate has been eliminated from all European NIVEA sun protection products as early as 2016. That means that all European NIVEA sunscreen products were already compliant with the Hawaiian Reef Bill even before its passage in 2018. Almost all living things need oxygen. Yet oxygen is also powerfully reactive and causes many other substances to oxidize. Rust, for example, is the result of iron oxidation. Oils and fats get rancid when they oxidize. This is where BHT comes in. Only a tiny amount of BHT (short for the rather unwieldy name butylated hydroxy-toluene) prevents oxidization. It is used in foods, medicine and cosmetics to help products keep fresh and last longer. PEG compounds can perform several functions at once. As emulsifiers, they make sure that oil and water mix and form nice, smooth creams and lotions. They allow perfume oils to dissolve in water-based products. In shampoos and shower gels, they help create supple foam. As emollients, PEG compounds soften and moisturize the skin. Some of these multi-taskers also have a cleansing effect. Apart from the cosmetic industry, PEG compounds are used in pharmaceutical and medical fields.

Children (ages 3-5) require at least 10-15ml - for more details on keeping young ones safe, read NIVEA’s children’s sunscreen advice.Sun induced damage is one of the main causes of premature ageing, protecting your skin from its rays can help maintain a youthful complexion. Although ageing is a beautiful process, sun damage should be avoided. Silicones are chemical compounds that are uniquely smooth and fluid. As silicone oils, they lend skincare products their pleasant texture and make them easy to apply. Neutralizing agents, e.g. Sodium Hydroxide or Citric Acid, are used to adjust the pH value of our formulas.

NIVEA Protect & Bronze range ensures you are equipped with a sunscreen that will provide effective protection against UVA / UVB. Our sun creams are expertly formulated to ensure skin is left feeling light and non-greasy, but protected and hydrated. The Protect & Bronze tan activating oils and sun lotions come in factors 20 and 30 so you can find the right SPF for your skin's needs. And for an easy sun protection application, we have a range of spray on sunscreens, such as our Protect & Bronze Tan Activating Sun Spray SPF30. Your face is one of the most exposed parts of your body, therefore applying SPF daily is highly recommended to keep it protected. Using a face cream containing SPF is one of the best ways to do this, as day-to-day, particularly when it is cloudy, it is easy to forget this last step in your skincare routine. BHT is an antioxidant used in foods and cosmetics. Many ingredients would become rancid if they reacted with the oxygen in the environment. BHT protects these ingredients against oxidation and makes them last longer. Most cosmetics products are composed of oily and watery parts. Making them blend into a smooth, creamy and stable texture is one of the greatest challenges in the world of cosmetics. Many early emulsifiers only keep oil and water together as long as the temperature doesn’t change. This is why the discovery of Eucerit was a milestone in skin care development. Made from purified wool fat, Eucerit (“the beautiful wax”) keeps emulsions stable even under extreme climatic conditions.Highly Effective - This sunscreen protects healthy skin from the OUTSIDE against UVA/UVB rays & from High Energy Visible Light effects such as premature skin ageing.

Not only is it an effective emulsifier, but also a key ingredient of our iconic NIVEA Creme. In fact, it was the discovery of Eucerit in the early 20th century that allowed the NIVEA Creme inventors Oscar Troplowitz, Dr. Paul Gerson Unna and Isaac Lifschütz to create their snow-white, stable skin cream.

Nanopigments of this substance are tiny particles – a million times smaller than a grain of sand. Titanium dioxide nanopigments are used in cosmetics as mineral (or physical) UV filter. Applied to the skin, they reflect and scatter UV rays and help to protect the skin against sunburn, premature aging, and skin cancer.
