Key Functions

• Glutathione's Role: Glutathione is a central component in the product, functioning as an antioxidant that brightens the skin tone by inhibiting melanin synthesis. It reverses the effects of melanin production, helping to lighten skin that has been darkened by UV exposure.
• Melanin Blocking Mechanism: The sunstick suppresses melanin production, reducing the skin's tendency to darken upon UV exposure. This is particularly important for maintaining a lighter skin tone over time.
• Sun Protection Factor: The product’s SPF 50+ indicates very high protection against UVB rays, which are primarily responsible for sunburn and contribute to skin ageing and cancer. The PA++++ rating corresponds to excellent UVA protection, which penetrates deeper into the skin and causes long-term damage.

Application Guidelines

• Apply the sunstick before exposure to sunlight for immediate protection.
• Suitable for both indoor and outdoor activities, providing continuous defence throughout the day.
• Can be used on both the face and body.
• Ideal for daily use to prevent cumulative UV damage and maintain skin tone brightness.
• Safe to apply under makeup without causing irritation or compromising cosmetic appearance.
