Parsol® 1789

Parsol® 1789 is an advanced UVA sunscreen that is becoming more frequently used in sun care products in the United States. It protects against long wavelength UVA rays, while most traditional lip balms with sunscreen protect primarily against UVB and short wavelength UVA rays. Long wavelength UVA rays penetrate deeper into the skin than UVB rays and can cause excessive dryness, fine lines and wrinkles, irregular skin pigmentation and even a weakening of the skin's immune system, and cancer.
