SPF stands for Sun Protection Factor. The number associated with your SPF i.e., SPF 30 indicates how long the sun’s UVB rays would take to cause redness (burning) to your skin vs. the amount of time without wearing sunscreen. For example, if you apply an SPF 30 exactly as directed it would take you 30 times longer to burn vs. wearing no sunscreen.
-
Most of us know to pack sunscreen when going on holiday to avoid sunburn in hotter climates, however SPF should be worn all year round to protect the skin against exposure and harmful damage from two types of UV light:
• UVA (long-wave) causes aging, sagging and premature wrinkles
• UVB (shortwave) causes sunburn, skin damage and pigmentation
Tip: An easy way to remember the effects of UV light is UVA causes Aging and UVB causes Burning.
-

Blue light is a type of visible light, also known as HEV (high-energy visible) light. It is emitted from digital devices such as phone, laptops and TV’s, even light bulbs too! It is known to cause premature aging and hyperpigmentation.
We have added Carnosine to some of our formulas which is a dipeptide composed of two amino acids, naturally found in the human body. It plays an essential role in protecting the skin against HEV light.
