Research shows that titanium Dioxide helps protect the skin from UVA and UVB radiation [1, 2].
Calendula officinalis flower extract demonstrates skin protection from UV radiation and it helps maintain skin pigmentation [3].
Skin health [1-3]; Protection from sun exposure [1-3]
Titanium dioxide blocks UVA/UVB by reflecting and scattering it; in doing so it reduces the occurrence of sunburn and protects skin cells [1, 2].
In addition to providing UV protection for the skin, Calendula officinalis flower extract has antifungal, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties that boost natural wound-healing processes [3].
