Sun Care SPF30-UVA50

The first brand to transparently state UVA protection.

UVA 50 anti-aging city sunscreen

Our moisturizing sun cream offers high UVA sun protection of 50 (57 exactly but not mentionable) and UVB protection of 30, thanks to the combination of antioxidants and 4 stable organic sun filters:

• DIETHYLAMINO HYDROXYBENZOYL HEXYL BENZOATE (UVA filter)
• METHYLENE BIS-BENZOTRIAZOLYL TETRAMETHYLBUTYLPHENOL (UVA and UVB filter)
• BIS-ETHYLHEXYLOXYPHENOL METHOXYPEHNYL TRIAZINE (UVA and UVB filter)

Antioxidants: astaxanthin and polyphenols, contribute to protection against damage caused by infrared, visible light and pollution to reduce the appearance of signs of aging.

We have chosen not to incorporate octocrylene, homosalate and avobenzone in the formula to suit as many skin types as possible (the eye contours are often sensitive to these filters)

Hydrates and plumps

Thanks to the combination of polyglutamic acid, an ingredient similar to hyaluronic acid, with phytosterols, molecules similar to cholesterol found in plant foods, our cream also offers hydrating and plumping properties.

Repairs and soothes

Our sunscreen contains Allantoin and a pre/postbiotic to strengthen the integrity of the epidermal barrier, preserve the skin microbiome and reduce feelings of discomfort.

Texture and Finish

Our cream with a semi-thick texture offers an optically blurring finish to reduce the appearance of pores and irregularities.

It has a non-greasy finish, no stickiness and does not leave white marks on the skin.

It is suitable for all skin types: does not leave white marks and gives a smooth and uniform appearance thanks to its optical blurring finish.

It hydrates, soothes and is particularly suitable as a makeup base.

Why choose an SPF with clearly claimed UVA protection?

(Which in Europe involves numerous in vivo and in vitro tests):

Ultraviolet A (UVA) and ultraviolet B (UVB) rays are both types of ultraviolet (UV) radiation emitted by the sun. The main differences between UVA and UVB are:

Wave length:

UVA has a longer wavelength than UVB, which means it penetrates deeper into the skin. UVA can reach the deepest layers of the skin, while UVB is primarily blocked by the skin's surface.

Effects on the skin:

UVA is primarily responsible for premature skin aging and age spots, while UVB is primarily responsible for sunburns and burns. Although UVA can be involved in skin cancers, it is generally less so than UVB.

Exhibition time and season:

UVA is present throughout the day, throughout the year, in the Sahara as well as at the North Pole, and even when the sun's rays are less intense. UVB is strongest between 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., and varies when the sun is highest in the sky, according to the seasons, and according to the location of exposure (very little UVB at the North Pole, extreme UVB in the Sahara)

Sunscreen:

The mandatory SPF index on all sunscreens corresponds to anti-UVB protection. It is important to check what UVA protection your sunscreen offers even if this information is not always clearly displayed.
