Heliocare, well known for revolutionising the suncare industry has developed one of the first body sunscreens that not only prevents and repairs sun damage but also enhances the functionality of vitamin D in the skin.

Keep reading to learn more about the Heliocare 360 Advanced Gel sunscreen, the science behind the product and how it feels on the skin.

Expertly Developed Suncare

In the 1990s, Heliocare made a discovery that would take the efficacy of their products to the next level. FernblockĀ® Technology is a patented technology created from an extract of Polypodium leucotomos, a fern native to Central America. The benefits of FernblockĀ® Technology include:

  • Enhanced sun protection that enables SPF filters to work more effectively, boosting their efficacy by 14%.
  • Clinically proven to boost the skin's ability to repair damage caused by free-radical damage from exposure to daylight. This exposure can cause a build-up of damageĀ  to cell DNA, but FernblockĀ® stops cumulative damage from mutating.Ā 
  • Protections from oxidative stress which is caused by free radical damage, reducing symptoms like inflammation, pigmentation, fine lines, wrinkles and dull skin.Ā 
  • Fights premature ageing by protecting skin cells, collagen and elastin production and maintaining the skins structure.Ā 
  • Reduce the possibility of hyper-pigmentation and existing hyperpigmentation protection.Ā 

FernblockĀ® is completely exclusive to Heliocare that is incorporated into every one of their suncare products, and due to its efficacy and protection level is one of the best.Ā 

Lightweight, High-Performing Sun Protection

FernblockĀ® is in each of Heliocare’s suncare products, but the Advanced Gel Body SPF50 features an innovation – ASPA-FernblockĀ®. With the addition of Aspalathus linearis, derived from a shrub with antioxidant properties, the Advanced Gel Body SPF50 can:

  • Ā Enhance vitamin D function with OptiD which supports the skins ability for vitamin D synthesis.
  • Strengthens photoprotection by strengthening the skins defences further against sun-induced damage.Ā 
  • Offer 15% more SPF protection by combining ASPA-FERNBLOCKĀ® with chemical filters.
  • Protect against UVB, UVA, visible and infrared radiation.Ā 

The benefits of this SPF are endless! If you have sensitive skin, it can be difficult to find a an SPF that sits comfortably on the skin throughout the day, but luckily this product is gentle enough for sensitive skin, including for children aged 2+.Ā

What It Feels Like On The Skin

The lightweight, gel consistency of this product is perfect for daily use and a great addition to your beach bag during the summer. Heliocare sunscreens are non-greasy and non-sticky, and this product is no exception. The gel sits lightly on the skin delivering high performance results. It is completely invisible on the skin, so you won’t be left with a pale white cast.

Created for the whole family to use, the formula is ideal for active children as it is completely water, sweat and sand resistant. For the best application, shake and apply evenly to the skin. Don't forget to reapply throughout the day and especially after swimming, sweating or towel drying for the best protection!
