Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare Powerful Sun Protection SPF 45 Cream is a broad-spectrum physical sunscreen that protects against the sun’s harmful UVA/UVB rays and is the only sunscreen that contains an iron-encapsulating chelator. This chelator removes iron residue left on the skin by tap water and perspiration, which helps in skin cancer prevention and promotes healthy skin. This multi-functional product protects, prevents aging, moisturizes, and promotes collagen growth. While SPF 30 is recommended for everyday use, Powerful Sun Protection SPF 45 Sunscreen Cream is necessary for extreme and prolonged exposure. Unlike sunscreens that leave behind a heavy, white residue, this very water-resistant, oil-free formula quickly absorbs into the skin and dries clean and clear. It retains SPF protection after 80 minutes of perspiration or activity in the water and will not sweat off, making it ideal for individuals with extremely active lifestyles, including sports enthusiasts.
Who It's For: Ideal for all skin types.
How It Works:
- Chelators are chemical compounds that neutralize metals such as iron, copper, lead, and zinc, which absorb into the skin after washing with tap water or are excreted from the skin during perspiration.
- Zinc oxide offers broad spectrum UVA/UVB protection.
- Blueberry fruit extract is a powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent.
- Tomato fruit extract helps to reduce wrinkles, fine lines, fends off free radicals, and prevents collagen breakdown.
Suggested Use: Apply evenly to face and body, preferably 30 minutes prior to prolonged sun exposure. Reapply as needed or after towel drying, swimming, or perspiring.
