FALLENE SUNBLOCK

In Phoenix and Glendale, Arizona

Sun exposure in Arizona is intense. And while a tan is thought of as attractive by many people, ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun is the primary cause of skin photodamage and aging. There is no “safe” part of the UV spectrum in terms of photodamage and risk of skin cancer whether outdoors or in a tanning booth. Over 1 million Americans get skin cancer per year now. One in 5 Americans will develop skin cancer in their lifetime. Melanoma incidence appears to be increasing and is a leading cause of cancer mortality in young women.  The changes associated with long term sun exposure also account for most of the changes we associate with skin aging including wrinkles, irregular pigmentation, loss of elasticity, thinning of the skin, telangiectasias, and a dull complexion. Sun protection can prevent or reverse much of this damage, delaying skin aging and reducing skin cancer risk. An effective sun protection program includes sunscreen as well as sun-protective clothing, sunglasses, and sun avoidance between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.

COTZ™ is mineral based, utilizing ultra-micronized titanium dioxide and zinc oxide as its approved active sunscreen ingredients.  COTZ stands for “contains only titanium and zinc”. COTZ is free of dyes, fragrance and is "chemical sunscreen free" (some individuals experience skin sensitivity due to chemical sunscreen filters). COTZ is excellent for pediatric use as well as for those with sensitive skin. Its water resistant properties make it ideal for outdoor activities. COTZ SPF58 sunscreen is elegant and highly protective for daily use, leaving the skin soft, smooth and UVA/UVB protected. COTZ is oil, PABA and fragrance free.

Fallene makes other highly protective sunscreen products including a lip balm with SPF 45. All their products are designed to not only protect against sun damage, but also contain antioxidants and skin nutrients for optimum skin health and repair.
