Avobenzone (Parsol 1789-)
* A revolutionary development in sunscreen technology approved by the FDA in 1998.

Vitamin A
* Improves skin elasticity, moisture content and suppleness while reversing the signs of photo-aging

Vitamin E

I have been using this product since 2005 and have been completely satisfied. I live on a lake and the summer weather averages aroung 105 50 120 so having a product that protects like Fenix is a must. My whole family uses the sunblock on our faces, first thing when we get on the boat, even my son and husband. No racoon faces for us.
Pros: easy to apply long lasting complete protection
Cons: cost however, because of the protection it is worth it.
