Has anyone here used Heliocare sunscreen (gel)?
I have found that there are at least 2 versions available in the market; not the SPF rating nor the consistency (gel or cream); but the packaging and product description (SPF 50 Gel vs SPF 50 Advanced; SPF 90 Gel vs SPF 90 Gel Ultra).
I don't have the ingredients of all those 4 sunscreen; but do have the list of the regular SPF50 Gel & the SPF 90 Ultra.
SPF 50 Gel

I have seen some ad lately and they claim that SPF 50 Gel Advanced & SPF 90 Gel Ultra are non white at all and good for oily skin.
From one distributor of Heliocare in Malaysia, the features and advantages of Heliocare suncreen as as follows.
1. Phytobiological Molecules

Powerful antioxidant, protect skin's cutaneous structure, immunological system and cellular DNA against solar immunosuppression.
