How It Works
This advanced chemical sunscreen (non-physical) provides comprehensive broad-spectrum protection against both UVA rays (which cause ageing) and UVB rays (which cause burning). The Activated Vitamin D Technology represents an innovation in sun protection, allowing the skin to maintain healthy vitamin D processes whilst being protected from harmful UV radiation. The 2-hour water-resistant formula ensures protection remains intact during swimming, sweating, or water exposure. This makes it ideal for active lifestyles and post-treatment protection when skin is most vulnerable.

The Balense® Philosophy
This sunscreen embodies our intelligent approach to skincare; providing maximum protection whilst respecting the skin’s natural processes through innovative Vitamin D technology.
Vitamin D Dilemma Solved
Traditional sunscreens can inhibit vitamin D synthesis. Our Activated Vitamin D Technology allows high sun protection without compromising this essential process.
Post-Treatment Protection
Treated skin is more vulnerable to UV damage. SPF50+ protection is non-negotiable after any professional treatment.
Do I need SPF50+ every day?
Yes, daily SPF protection prevents visible photoageing. SPF50+ provides optimal protection against burning and prevention of skin cancers.
Will this leave a white cast?
No, the formula is designed to blend invisibly on all skin tones.
Is 2 hours water resistance enough?
Yes, but remember to reapply after swimming or towelling for continued protection.
