Medik8 physical sunscreen

Non-nano mineral filter zinc oxide reflects and absorbs UV rays to protect the skin from sun damage.

Marrubium vulgare extract provides superior anti-pollution defence to limit the damage caused by environmental pollutants.

Physical Sunscreen also includes anti-glycation (also known as anti-A.G.E.) technology. Glycation is a natural ageing process that occurs when excess sugars in our body bind themselves to proteins such as collagen and elastin, transforming them into advanced glycation end products (or A.G.E.s for short). As a result, the glycated protein fibres can no longer be renewed, which can lead to the formation of fine lines and wrinkles. Physical Sunscreen uses carnosine to help keep skin protected from glycation-derived skin ageing. Carnosine can also protect the skin from infrared rays, which are known to play a part in the breakdown of collagen.
