When the sun shines, we receive 2 types of UV rays on the surface of our skin:
UVB:
- accounts for 5% of the UV spectrum
- are responsible for visible effects like tanning or sunburn.
UVA:
- represent 95% of the UV spectrum
- penetrates deep into the layers of the skin
- are responsible for invisible effects like oxidative stress and lowering of the skin's immune defenses that lead to visible effects like skin aging and skin cancers.
To avoid these effects and not overload the skin with filters, BIODERMA has created SUN ACTIVE DEFENSE, the high-tech sun protection, reinforced against UVA rays. It combines UV filters and a patented biological protection that enhances the skin's defense capacity to help maintain long-lasting care of your health in the sun and allows:
+24% Protection of the skin's immune defenses*
+26% Protection against oxidative stress*
