The #1 Recommended Sun Protection by Dermatologists

Why Choose Ombrelle? From the beginning, Ombrelle was original in its quest of developing the best sun protection on the market. It was the first brand to recognize the necessity of conceiving a protection not only against UVBs, but UVAs as well. Hence the launch of its product line in 1990 was the first to introduce Parsol® 1789 (an active ingredient which filters UVA rays) within its formulations.

With the assistance of L'Oréal research, Ombrelle perfected its formulations and now offers state-of-the-art products, incorporating a unique and patented filter system which offers an effective and lasting protection against UV rays. As a result, Ombrelle is the sun protection most recommended by Canadian Dermatologists and Healthcare Professionals.

Effective UVA and UVB Protection The Sun Protection Factor (SPF) level on a sunscreen only refers to its ability to protect against UVB rays. Although research has proven that UVA rays penetrate deep into the skin causing long term damages (wrinkles, age spots, sagging skin, premature aging, skin cancer, etc.), there is currently no agreed upon method to evaluate the UVA protection factor. Therefore consumers cannot rely on the SPF level to measure the UVA protection they are getting. The words "UVA protection" on a sunscreen package does not guarantee adequate protection. Any sunscreen can legally claim UVA protection by blocking only a small portion of UVA rays with just one ingredient.

When purchasing a sunscreen, make sure the product includes active ingredients that effectively block UVAs. In the list of active ingredients on the packaging, look for Mexoryl® SX (terephtalylidene dicamphor sulfonic acid) and Parsol® 1789 (Avobenzone). Both of these active ingredients are incorporated into Ombrelle products.
