How SunSeal™ Works
SunSeal™: Harnessing the Power of Microskin™ for Superior Sun Protection
The patented Microskin™ technology used in SunSeal™ adheres to the skin and suspends the active UVA/UVB blockers to deliver light-weight and durable sun protection.
When SunSeal™ is applied to the skin, the Microskin™ technology creates a protective film that acts just like your natural skin. This film is flexible, breathable and allows you to sweat freely through the film rather than underneath it.
When the delivery agent of the Microskin™ film evaporates it leaves a water resistant film on the skins surface.
After the evaporation phase, the cellulosic and oil components in the Microskin™ film migrate towards the skins surface and partially enter the Corneum layer which are our dead skin cells.
This assists in binding the now dried Microskin film to the skins surface and provides exceptional elasticity to the Microskin™ film. As Microskin™ is formulated on more Lipophilic (Oil based) ingredients these components have a difficult job continuing deeper than the Corneum layer due to the lower epidermal layer having a higher water concentration and therefore considered more Lipophobic (Oil resistant).
As we all know water and oil do not mix. This helps keep the microskin and any suspended ingredients from being fully absorbed into the skin.
