Product summary

The ingredient list suggests that "Margaret Dabbs London - SPF 30 Sun Defence for Hands" can provide reliable sun protection. We love that it can protect from both UVA and UVB rays (not all sunscreens with SPF ratings give UVA protection. UVA rays do not cause sunburn, but still damage our skin and lead to early aging).

This product prevents early signs of aging by protecting against sun damage (all broad spectrum sunscreens do that).

Sunscreen filters

This sunscreen uses so-called "chemical", or organic UV filters (organic simply means that their molecules contain atoms of carbon). These filters typically give good sun protection and rarely leave a white cast, but they can be irritating for sensitive skin. The UV filters in this sunscreen are: avobenzone 3.30% - 4.90%, uvasorb heb 2.00% - 2.90%, octinoxate 0.85% - 1.25%, octisalate 3.90% - 5.80% and octocrylene 5.10% - 7.70%.
