What is broadband SPF?

Are you burned out on the myriad of sunscreens? The United States Food and Drug Administration (US FDA) is cracking down to regulate testing and labeling - all to make it easier to choose the best sunscreen to protect against your skin's worst enemy.

These new regulations correspond with the improvements made to Dermalogica's Daylight Defense - meaning your favorite SPF products offer even more sun protection and skin care benefits!

Microencapsulation Delivers Ultimate Protection

UV Smart Booster Technology: Research shows that antioxidant vitamins are just as important as sunscreens in protecting skin from harmful UV rays and free radicals. Daylight Defense products contain this technology, which provides increased antioxidant protection from UV rays.

Oleosome Technology: These moisture-rich beads allow a product to have a higher SPF while using less chemical sunscreen, resulting in a product that is even more wearable and even less likely to cause sensitivity. (Included in Solar Defense Booster SPF50 and Oil Free Matte SPF30).

dermalogica and broad spectrum protection

Only sunscreens that pass the FDA broad spectrum test (and provide proportional protection against UVA and UVB rays) may be labeled "broad spectrum."

All Dermalogica products containing SPF have been sent to independent laboratories to confirm our "broad spectrum" status. Learn about the enhanced Daylight Defense products.
