Sunscreen with EGCG


 

DermaDoctor Body Guard SPF-30 sunscreen works to avert sun damage on the face and body. The formulation contains the antioxidant epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), the active ingredient in green tea, to counter UV damage to the skin. It also contains sebum-sequestering microparticles, which reduce excess surface oils that are already present on the skin, as well as botanicals for soothing and sodium hyaluronate for moisturizing. The product is noncomedogenic and leaves a matte finish. A tube of the sunscreen retails for about $25.
