Why is ultra-long UVA protection important?

While UVB rays are known for causing sunburn, UVA rays penetrate deeper into the skin and contribute to premature ageing, pigmentation, and long-term damage. Ultra-long UVA rays (380–400nm) are particularly harmful, accelerating oxidative stress and photo-ageing. Daily protection against all spectrums of UV radiation is crucial to prevent skin damage, maintain even tone, and protect sensitive skin.
