High Efficiency and Safety
| So What New Technology Produces Such High Efficiency and Safety?
The following includes technological advances that have never before been combined in sun protection products until now.
1. Nanotechnology (the science of two things too small to be visible) exploits structures smaller than a wavelength of light. Light waves are 400 to 800 nanometers (nm) in length. The particles of Z-Cote micronized Zinc Oxide used in ColorShade are smaller than a wavelength of light. A special process is used to separate the small particles. But, at their small size, when dispersed well, they can block 4 to 8 times as much UV as normal white Zinc Oxide.
2. Sunscreen Synergism is a term which means that some combination sunscreen ingredients provide more protection when used together than when used separately. ColorShade uses a proprietary synergistic combination of Micronized Zinc Oxide and Octinoxate in a light bending layer which works two ways to prevent UV damage. It both reflects and absorbs dangerous UV rays.
3. High UVA Blocking is an attribute not measured by many UV protection brands. UVA protection is very important for reducing your risk of skin cancer, especially Melanoma. Research at the Brookhaven National Labs has determined that UVA is the main trigger for the most deadly form of skin cancer, Melanoma. ColorShade blocks 80% or more of the UVA rays at all UVA wavelengths. No other brand we know of is making that claim.
