What it does

Mineral protection that wears like skincare.

SPF 40 · PA+++ — high broad-spectrum defence against UVB burning and ultra long-UVA ageing.

19% non-nano zinc oxide — a pure mineral shield that sits on top of skin; gentle from 6 months up.

Blue-light defence — cuts high-energy visible light from screens and the midday sun.

Antioxidant botanicals — ashwagandha and pomegranate help neutralise free radicals.

No white cast — a sheer mineral finish that disappears into skin.

Dermatologically tested — gentle on sensitive, reactive and acne-prone skin.

No synthetic fragrance & steroid-free — breathable protection without irritation.

Vegan & reef-kind — formulated with care for skin and planet.

Why it matters

A child's skin takes the sun differently.

Young skin is thinner and absorbs more UV. Most damage that shows up decades later is set in the first 18 years — and today's screens add a second exposure most sunscreens ignore: high-energy blue light.

Daily Defender answers all three — UVB burn, ultra long-UVA ageing, and blue light — in one mineral layer that wears invisibly through a full day of play.

The study

Measured protection, not marketing.

In-vivo SPF (ISO 24444) and in-vitro UVA (ISO 24443) testing on a panel of healthy volunteers, plus an 8-week tolerance study in children aged 3–12.

A note on honesty

SPF is an indicative measure, not an absolute promise. Because skin is individual and no two labs are identical, tested results carry a natural variation of about ±17%. We test rigorously to globally accepted standards — and we'd rather tell you that than pretend one number fits everyone.

Methodology: SPF measured in-vivo on a human panel per ISO 24444:2010; UVA protection factor and critical wavelength measured in-vitro per ISO 24443:2012. Tolerance assessed by dermatologist grading over 8 weeks. Results are study averages and may vary with application amount (2 mg/cm²) and reapplication.

How it works

One mineral layer. Three kinds of light, handled.

UVB

Stops the burn

Mineral filters reflect and absorb burning UVB rays at the surface — SPF 40 means ~97.5% filtered.

UVA

Guards the deep

Ultra long-UVA (PA+++) reaches into the dermis and drives ageing. We hold a critical wavelength of 390nm.

HEV

Filters blue light

A tinted-free mineral veil cuts high-energy visible light from screens and midday sun by up to 61%.

Mineral vs chemical

Inside the tube

19% non-nano zinc, cushioned in botanicals.

A pure mineral shield of 19% non-nano zinc oxide sits on top of skin and reflects the light. Around it, ashwagandha, pomegranate and green tea antioxidants help skin stand up to daily sun, while shea butter, argan and meadowfoam oil keep the layer soft — never sticky.

The science, simply

What is SPF & PA rating?

SPF — Sun Protection Factor

How well it shields against UVB — the burning rays.

SPF 30blocks ~97% UVB
SPF 40 · ours~97.5% UVB
SPF 50blocks ~98% UVB
97.5%

PA — Protection Grade of UVA

Protection against UVA — the ageing rays. More plus signs, more long-UVA defence.

PA++++
PA++++ is the highest grade; Daily Defender is PA+++ — very high.

Together, they help defend against UVB burning and long-UVA ageing — every day.
