PARSOL® TX
PARSOL® TX (INCI: Titanium Dioxide, Silica, Dimethicone) is an inorganic UVB filter providing a very good SPF performance as well as a significant contribution to UVA protection into the blue light range.
Hi SPF protection. Barely-there feel.
Traditional sun protection often comes with trade-offs that require heavy formulations to ensure effective UV defense, leaving skin feeling heavy and greasy.

It creates a uniform, invisible shield, ensuring high-performance sun protection without the weight - supporting healthy, beautiful skin with superior and reliable comfort.
