The UV Warrior is a new generation Hybrid Sunscreen that features a combination of Ultra fine Titanium Dioxide and micronised zinc oxide, coated and prepared by crystal growth-guided technology and optimised by a bioactive photoprotection complex made up of Melanin and Buddleja officinalis extract.
It is a lightweight emulsion formulated to blend smoothly into skin of colour, leaving a cosmetically elegant and invisible finish.
Our Optimised UV protection system utilises fractionated Melanin as a true source of broad spectrum photo-protection. Scientific studies suggests that High Energy Visible (HEV) light, at the wavelengths that the eye perceives as blue to violet, is specifically harmful to skin of colour . HEV light has been shown to generate the same amount of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the skin as those produced by UVA and UVB combined.
Melanin possesses an excellent ability to absorb light at all wavelengths of the electromagnetic solar emission spectrum and also occurs naturally in the human body where it is released from melanocytes into the skin as a first line of defence against exposure to certain damaging light waves. Melanin’s photo-physical properties and its biological activity makes it an excellent photo-protectant.
UV Warrior is designed to provide true broad spectrum Coverage whilst minimising hyperpigmentation.
