About UV screening agents

Today, there are two types of screening agents available:
1. Physical agents zinc oxide and titanium dioxide
2. UV-ray diffusing and absorbing agents like benzophenone, homosalate, octisalate,
oxybenzone, oxtinoxate and the parsols (1789, SLX and 5000)

Physical screening agent zinc oxide is harmless for human skin but might cause problems
for those with acne or chronic skin disorders like dermatitis. Zinc oxide prevents the
formation of vitamin D and should only be used in areas with thin or depleted ozone
layer, as it is the only effective screening agent against UVC (gamma) radiation, which is
deadly due to its long wavelength (strongly carcinogenic). At the same time, it prevents
the formation of melanin and thus pigmentation – the only natural defense our epidermis
has against sun burn.

Zinc Oxide also leaves a sticky, unpleasant residual on the consumer’s skin. Titanium
dioxide is only appropriate in minimal dosage due to its high level of toxicity. It has the
Always on Sale

same disadvantages as zinc oxide but is more pleasant on the

skin in micronized form.
The absorbing agents common in North America are all banned
from EU products due to their sometimes severe side effects.
Health Canada and the FDA in the USA granted the cosmetics
industry a 10 year grace period to replace them. Most
manufacturers still rely on benzophenone, oxybenzone etc.,
because they are sitting on large stockpiles – and they are legal to use.

Our screening agents Parsol 1789 absorbs long-wave & carcinogenic UVA rays and was
developed for sensitive skin. Parsol 5000 filters UVB rays which cause burns and wrinkle
skin while Parsol SLX results in photostability of the formula – crucial in order to avoid
the generation of free radicals on the epidermis.

The combination of parsols as screening agents does not prevent but encourage
pigmentation of the skin. Hence it helps to activate our skin’s natural defense mechanism.

About Parsol SLX (Dimethico-Diethylbenzalmalonate)

PARSOL® SLX (INCI: Polysilicone-15) is the only UVB filter available to the industry
that has a novel structure of benzyl malonate chromophores attached to specific points on
a polysiloxane chain. This architecture, which takes on a physical characteristic of a
liquid-mineral UV filter, ensures that it remains on the skin where it exerts its protective
effect against UVB radiation. Biovera Parasol is the first sun screen in Canada which
uses PARSOL® SLX in combination with other screening agents. Until now, such a
combination has been proprietary only.

PARSOL® SLX delivers many highly regarded features to products when combined with
nanopigments, such as its compatibility and the potential to reach high SPF without
compromising on the texture and feel of the product. Most important of all, it is suitable
for the long-term use of all skin types, including for example sensitive skin.

PARSOL® SLX also photostablizes PARSOL® 1789, and together, they allow the
formulation of elegant, photostable products with good SPF performance and UVA
protection. PARSOL® SLX is also the only UVB filter with a range of proven protection
for hair against UV radiation.

The combination of PARSOL® SLX and nanopigments, together with PARSOL® 1789,
ensures a broad-spectrum UV protection system that is efficacious and ideally suited for
the use of the whole family.

Along with non-irritating screening agents, the choice of natural free radical scavengers
vitamins A,C and E provides maximum long-term protection of the skin’s defense
mechanism and health.
