Every day, your skin is damaged by sneaky environmental stressors, including pollutants and blue light emitted from electronic devices.

What is blue light?

Blue light is a short, high-energy wavelength emitted from the sun as well, as smartphones, flat screens, laptops, and fluorescent / LED lighting.

Why is it harmful?

This visible light penetrates skin more deeply and generates more ROS (Reactive Oxygen Species) than UVA and UVB combined.

Daily blue light exposure can cause:

• Skin inflammation

• Premature aging

• Barrier damage

60% of the population spend more than 6 hours a day in front of an electronic device. There are more and more studies reviewing the safety and effects of blue light exposure. Blue light ranges between 400-490 nm. Zinc oxide is one of the only mineral SPFs that protects from 290 nm to 400 nm, making it effective against both short and long UVA and UVB rays.

Studies have shown that even short-term exposure to blue light increases the formation of reactive oxygen species. As we age, the production of ROS naturally increases, however, the body’s ability to repair the DNA damage it causes decreases. Couple this with the increased exposure to blue light
