Protective Cream Sunscreen
When you think of sunscreen, you probably think of protecting your skin from the sun's harsh rays. But in today's digital world, our skin is bombarded by light and radiation from multiple sources, making comprehensive defense more important than ever.
The MELAO Hydrating Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50 goes beyond basic UV blocking, offering protection against three key types of environmental stressors.
The 3 Layers of Skin Defense
1. Resist UV (Isolation UVA/UVB)
This is the classic, most critical function of sunscreen.
What it does: The SPF 50 Broad Spectrum formula protects your skin from UVA rays (the aging rays that penetrate deep and cause wrinkles) and UVB rays (the burning rays that damage the skin's surface).
Why it matters: Consistent UV protection is the best defense against premature aging, sun spots, and skin cancer.
2. Resist Visible Light (Lighting / screen light, etc)
We spend hours every day in front of screens, and that light isn't harmless.
What it does: This type of defense helps shield your skin from High-Energy Visible Light (HEV), also known as blue light, which comes from computer screens, phones, and indoor lighting.
Why it matters: Studies suggest blue light can penetrate the skin, generating free radicals that lead to premature aging and pigmentation. Protection against it is vital for those with desk jobs or heavy screen time.
3. Resist Light Radiation (Electromagnetic wave, etc)
This addresses the often-overlooked environmental factors in modern life.
What it does: The formula is designed to help resist light radiation from things like electromagnetic waves. While research is ongoing, these types of waves are part of our environment (from Wi-Fi, cell signals, etc.).
Why it matters: Adding this layer of defense provides a more complete barrier, ensuring your skin is protected from a wider range of daily environmental stressors that can affect skin health.
Why Choose a Hydrating Mineral Formula?
This sunscreen is labeled as a Hydrating Mineral Sunscreen, which offers additional benefits:
Mineral-Based: Mineral sunscreens (containing Zinc Oxide and/or Titanium Dioxide) sit on top of the skin to block UV rays and are often preferred for sensitive or acne-prone skin.
Hydrating: It's formulated to be lightweight, non-greasy, and includes 3 essential ceramides & niacinamide. These ingredients help restore the skin barrier, soothe the skin, and lock in moisture, preventing the common drying effect of some sunscreens.
