In this era dominated by smart devices, blue light has quietly become an unavoidable threat in our daily lives.

Prolonged exposure can cause eye strain, lead to macular degeneration, and even affect skin health by accelerating skin aging.

What Is Blue Light?

  • Blue light refers to visible light with wavelengths between 400–500 nm
  • High-intensity blue light penetrates deeper than UVB and UVA, damaging DNA in skin cells and breaking down the skin’s fiber structure.
  • Blue light at 410 nm reduces the transcription of the PER1 gene in keratinocytes (a clock gene involved in circadian rhythms), which may disrupt the nighttime rhythm of skin cells. This disruption affects melatonin production, potentially leading to poor sleep quality and an imbalance in skin condition

Chemical Sunscreens Cannot Fully Protect Against Blue Light

Studies have shown that chemical sunscreens alone cannot provide complete blue light protection. Physical sunscreen ingredients are needed for full defense.

Titanium dioxide (TiO₂) has been proven to block light effectively.

By combining antioxidant and anti-inflammatory ingredients, skin health can be strengthened and stabilized for optimal protection!
