Protect Your Skin – Use SPF All Year Round
This is the face of an American truck driver who was exposed to sunlight on one side through his window for years. The sun-exposed side of his face shows much deeper grooves and lines—a clear result of years of unprotected sun exposure. This photo demonstrates the impact of daily UV exposure, even through glass. It makes it clear that protecting your skin isn’t just something to do in summer.
What Does SPF Mean and What Does It Do?
SPF stands for Sun Protection Factor. It indicates how much protection a product provides against harmful UVB rays, which not only cause sunburn but also increase the risk of skin damage. Our SPF 20 blocks about 93% of these UVB rays, meaning your skin is protected without completely blocking out sunlight.
Why Choose Zinc Oxide?
Our SPF uses zinc oxide as the active ingredient—a mineral that forms a physical barrier on the skin to reflect UV rays. Zinc oxide is safe and gentle, even for the most sensitive skin, and offers protection against both UVA and UVB rays. UVA rays penetrate deeply into the skin and are one of the main causes of skin aging and pigmentation. UVB rays cause sunburn and can also lead to long-term damage. By incorporating zinc oxide into your daily skincare, you protect your skin from these effects without the potential irritation of chemical filters.
Protection Year-Round
Although we often think of SPF as a summer product, UV rays are present year-round—even on cloudy days. Additionally, UVA rays can penetrate glass, meaning you're also exposed indoors or in the car. A product like our SPF 20 offers an easy way to protect your skin daily, ensuring a healthy, even complexion.
No White Cast, Just a Natural Glow
Our SPF has a subtle tint, so there’s no white cast. Instead, it provides a natural, even glow that enhances your skin without the look of heavy foundation. This makes it ideal for daily use, for both men and women.
Did You Know...
- UVA rays are responsible for most of the deep skin damage, like pigmentation and reduced elasticity.
- UVB rays cause sunburn and can make your skin more vulnerable over time.
- SPF only protects against UVB rays, but broad-spectrum protection with zinc oxide also shields against UVA rays.
SPF for Everyone
Sun protection should be a daily habit for everyone. It’s not about promises of younger skin, but about maintaining the skin you have in its best, healthiest condition. With our SPF, you give your skin year-round care and protection in a natural way.
Give your skin the protection it deserves every day.
