A modern broad-spectrum filter that covers both UVA and UVB and stays stable in sunlight. It is one reason many Korean and European sunscreens can combine high protection with a lighter feel.
Good for: Sun protection
A modern UVA filter common in Korean and European sunscreens. It fills the long-wave UVA gap that UVB-focused filters cannot cover and is valued for remaining stable during sun exposure.
Good for: Sun protection
A high-efficiency UVB filter behind many elegant high-SPF Korean and European formulas. It contributes strong burn protection without requiring the heavier filter load of less efficient UVB absorbers.
Good for: Sun protection
A polymeric UVB filter used to build lightweight, silky sunscreen textures. It supports SPF while its silicone backbone helps the formula spread into an even protective film.
Good for: Sun protection
A UVA filter best known as Mexoryl SX. It adds protection against the wavelengths associated with photosensitivity, pigmentation, and photoaging, but it works as one member of a broader filter blend.
