Sunscreen for maximum protection

Sunshine and happiness go hand in hand. However, to prevent premature wrinkles or skin cancer souring our mood in the future, it is important to apply sunscreen to prevent sunburn.
TEXT

Inorganic UV filters provide effective protection in sunscreens

Since the 1970s, Evonik's work in this field has focused on inorganic UV filters, which have proven both safe and effective.

Ultra-fine titanium dioxide particles link up in sunscreen to provide effective protection. They do not simply absorb light, they reflect it in all directions. That property makes it far easier to obtain higher sun protection factors.
