Science Behind Sheer Physical UV Defense SPF 50
The Difference Between UVA + UVB Rays
Protection from UV radiation is an essential step in maintaining skin health. Two types of UV rays, ultraviolet A (UVA) and ultraviolet B (UVB), penetrate the atmosphere and can accelerate visible signs of aging and increase the risk of skin cancer.
UVA rays are associated with accelerated aging and can penetrate through windows and clouds.
UVB rays cause sunburn by damaging the epidermis, causing redness, blistering, while increasing the risk of cancer.
To decrease the risk of the damage from rays, apply Sheer Physical UV Defense daily.
TIP: Boost Environmental Protection to protect skin from environmental aggressors, always pair Sheer Physical UV Defense with an antioxidant.

I love the glow and fresh feel it leaves in my skin. I’ve been using this for a few years now. A worthwhile product for your daily skincare routine 🤩
Angie
Absolutely love this product! I’ve seen a huge improvement after using it for a few weeks. I highly recommend!
Love this product!
This lovely face cream keeps my face moisturized and toned in the nicest way. It feels light but is very effective.
Love this serum helps with redness, aging
Really impressed with this product with a useful measured pump. I use layered over other Alumier Serums and my skin feels smooth and nourished. Followed by Alumier Clear Shield SPF42 my skin feels fully protected.
Got a tiny sample. It seems to calm the redness.
Love this product. It makes my skin look smooth with just the right amount of tint plus SPF
It's a perfect product. We are very pleased.
This is a lovely gentle polish with fine particles and a light fresh scent. I have sensitive skin so was concerned the polish might irritate my skin. I have not experienced any irritation and my skin feels smooth and clean after use 2x weekly as recommended.
I really like it so far. My favorite is the red growth srum though. Its like a gel like substance and keeps my face soft and subtle.. it also thickens your skin.
I like the feel and boost it seems to give my lips, without the tingling of other products
