ZO1 Products represent a remarkable breakthrough in anti-ageing skincare and genuine protection from sun damage.
Most sunscreens and other skincare products tend only to block UVB rays and provide inadequate protection against UVA rays.
Recent research has shown that it is UVA rays, which do not visibly burn the skin, that penetrate further and do more harm than the UVB rays which cause sunburn, and which have until now been considered the main cause of skin cancer.
The chart below shows the various chemical blockers used, along with the spectrum of UVA and UVB rays against which they are effective.

As you can see it takes a combination of chemical blockers to create the same level of protection that Zinc Oxide achieves. Furthermore many chemical blockers are harmful photosensitive chemicals, which quite literally ‘cook’ on your skin as they absorb energy from the sun.
