Ingredient Science

RESVERATROL

Featured in Sheer Hydration Broad Spectrum Sunscreen SPF 40 & Clear Shield Broad Spectrum Sunscreen SPF 42

Commonly derived either from grape seeds or the Japanese knotweed plant, this polyphenol antioxidant neutralises free radical damage, protecting the skin from sun damage, reducing cell damage and improving collagen synthesis. Resveratrol also has anti-inflammatory properties by inhibiting inflammatory markers including cox-2 and interleukins.
Resveratrol inhibits P. acnes bacteria.

Grape seed extract is an antioxidant that enhances the effect of sunscreen by protecting skin against UV-induced free radicals, which cause damage to skin cells, their DNA and dermal matrix proteins.

Derived from milk thistle, silybin is an antioxidant that protects skin against UV-induced free radical damage.

Chemical vs Physical Sunscreens

Most chemical sunscreen filters are made up of small particles that are absorbed into the skin. Examples include oxybenzone, octinoxate, 4-MBC, octocrylene and homosalate. Some of these particles have even been found in plasma and urine.

Dozens of studies in the last decade have examined the potential health hazards of small molecule sunscreen chemicals, including skin irritation or allergy, hormone disruption and skin damage that occurs when sunlight interacts with sunscreen chemicals (EWG: Environmental Working Group, 2015). Many of these chemicals are known or suspected hormone disruptors, allergens and carcinogens.

By contrast, physical sunscreen ingredients like zinc oxide and titanium dioxide contain large particles that safely remain within the stratum corneum (outer dead layer of skin). When choosing sunscreen filters, AlumierMD chooses zinc oxide and titanium dioxide because they have no skin absorption and have an excellent safety record. Sunscreen filters with evidence of human toxicity are avoided.
