The human skin develops natural defences against the damaging effects of the sun. It darkens over time, it partially thickens and a repair mechanism can mend damages inside cells.

However, these natural mechanisms take time to develop and are limited in scope, especially in sun sensitive skin such as skin type I and II.

Furthermore, all skin types are particularly at risk

- in Spring and early Summer, when natural defences did not have time to develop

- in extreme exposures such as by sea, in the snow, on high mountains and in tropical areas, where sun intensity is very high

Therefore, from a medical point of view, the skin needs additional protection by following simple rules of behaviour and using an appropriate sun protectant, adapted to each skin type.

The photo protective effect of a sunscreen is indicated by the Sun Protective Factor (SPF). It reflects the degree of protection from UVB rays:

For measuring the protective effect against UVA rays, one uses the Widely accepted Australian Standard. If a product fulfils this standard, it will filter more than 90% of UVA rays between the wave lengths of 320 and 360 nm, considered the most dangerous in the UVA range.

All Daylong sun tan lotion products fulfil this standard.

Liposomes

In sun protection, the goal is to concentrate the UV filters in the horny layer, above the living epidermis and dermis, to minimize the damaging effect of the sun on the skin.

Liposomes are ideal carriers of UV filters:

• They can target the active substance (UV filter) to a specific tissue.
• They can provide a continuous action of an active ingredient.
• In addition they can hydrate and improve the electricity of the horny layer.

Daylong Sun tan lotion

All Daylong sun tan lotions have a liposomal emulsion in a pleasant hydrophilic base. These liposomes are made of natural Soya lecithin, without addition of emulgators or lipids, in order to ensure best possible tolerance.

Pleasant and non fatty when applied on the skin
The hydrophilic base and low level of lipids makes it easy to apply the product and ensures that enough quantities are applied for optimal protection.

Hydrating
Daylong liposomes hydrate the skin.
