Introducing the Reflecting Mineral Sunscreen

“ Our skin is naturally exposed to a number of common and potentially harmful elements each and every day–none more so than the sun. The sun emits harmful ultraviolet rays that can cause both short-term discomfort and long-term damage to our skin, including common and deadly skin cancers like melanoma. By incorporating sunscreen into your daily skincare routine, you can give your skin the powerful protection it needs to prevent such harmful effects. I recommend mineral sunscreens to my patients, like Helande’s Reflecting Mineral Sunscreen, as they prevent UV rays from ever absorbing into your skin. Our formula creates a safe and reflective shield atop your skin using superstar sunscreen ingredients titanium dioxide and zinc oxide. Plus, it pairs beautifully with Helande’s other skincare products, making this SPF a seamless addition to your daily routine.”

Derick Dermatology recommends daily use of a broad spectrum, mineral sunscreen of SPF 30 or greater.

A broad spectrum sunscreen protects against UVA and UVB. UVA and UVB exposure can lead to sunburns and aging skin which can increase the risk of skin cancer.
