Exposure to UV radiation
from the sun can lead to premature aging
and skin cancer. Wearing the right sunscreen is the best preventive measure to prevent wrinkles and even the deadly skin cancer, melanoma.

In order to receive this seal, a product must meet the following criteria:
- SPF of 15 or higher
- Provides protection against UVA and UVB rays
- Must be stable and water resistant
- Evidence of phototoxicity testing
- Meets guidelines in the United States FDA's Sunscreen Monograph
