What is the UVA value of Zen Solaire?

In Europe, if a sunscreen product shows the UVA symbol inside a circle, it means the formula provides UVA protection equal to at least one-third of its UVB protection (the SPF value).

This is a legal requirement to ensure balanced protection against both short-term sunburn (UVB) and long-term damage like skin aging and pigmentation (UVA).

Zen Solaire has a UVA/UVB ratio of 42%, which exceeds the required minimum. This means that for every unit of UVB protection, the product delivers 42% equivalent UVA protection.

To put this into perspective:

The UVA requirement for SPF 20 is 6,6, but Zen Solaire’s UVA protection is 8,4. This is actually almost the required UVA protection of SPF 30 (9,9).

Keep in mind that SPF tests mainly measure the mineral content of Zen Solaire, but were not designed to evaluate the biological protection of the formula’s plant nutrients.

The ultra-concentrated photoprotective plants (88%) of Zen Solaire strengthen the skin’s defense mechanisms and neutralize free radicals from UV radiation.
