The Science Behind Physical Fusion
What’s the Difference Between UVA + UVB Damage?
Protection from UV radiation is an essential step in maintaining skin health. Two types of UV rays, ultraviolet A (UVA) and ultraviolet B (UVB), penetrate the atmosphere and can accelerate visible signs of aging and increase the risk of skin cancer.
UVA rays are associated with accelerated aging and can penetrate through windows and clouds.
UVB rays damage the outer layer of skin, causing redness, blistering, and increasing the risk of cancer.
To decrease the risk of the damage from rays, apply Physical Fusion UV Defense daily.
Double Up Defense
Secure advanced environmental protection by always pairing Physical Fusion UV Defense Sunscreen with an antioxidant for maximum defense. Combined, antioxidant and broad-spectrum sunscreen offer the most optimal protection from damaging free radicals and oxidative stress.

Is it the same as physical sunscreen? Mineral sunscreen is also called physical sunscreen. It includes filters like zinc oxide and titanium dioxide that create a barrier on the skin’s surface to reflect the sun’s rays away from skin—providing broad-spectrum protection against damage caused by UVA and UVB rays (especially when used with other sun-protection measures).
Yes. Zinc oxide is found in mineral (also called physical) sunscreens and is considered safe and effective, even when applied to sensitive skin.
While zinc oxide is very effective as a physical barrier to the sun’s damaging rays, it is an astringent which can be drying to the skin. If dry skin is a concern, look for sunscreens that have hydrating ingredients, such as glycerin, hyaluronic acid, and ceramides.
Tinted sunscreens are mineral-based, broad-spectrum sunscreens that contain a blend of pigments that add a sheer tint and adapt to your natural skin tone, without causing a white cast.

5% Zinc Oxide (Z-Cote®)
This microfine zinc oxide is a mineral filter that reflects sun rays to provide broad spectrum protection against UVA and UVB rays. The particle size and distribution characteristics spread evenly and provide a non-whitening effect on skin.
6% Titanium Dioxide
Microfine titanium dioxide is a mineral SPF filter that acts as a weightless reflector on skin to
Artemia Salina
This plankton extract helps boost skin’s natural defenses and resistance to UV- and heat-induced stress.
