Formulated specifically for daily use and extended outdoor activities, Extreme Protect SPF 40 is a unique fusion of scientifically advanced physical sunscreens - transparent Titanium Dioxide and micronised Zinc Oxide - coupled with pure Vitamin E. This antioxidant-rich blend provides superior water-resistant broad spectrum UVA/UVB protection. Extreme Protect SPF 40 is an ultra sheer, lightweight formula that absorbs quickly for a non-greasy matte finish.
Evidence-Based Efficacy
The effectiveness of sunscreens containing Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide has been supported by various studies. For instance, a study titled Spectral Transmittance Analysis of Different Sunscreens Used in Daylight Photodynamic Therapy highlights the importance of these ingredients in blocking UV radiation. Additionally, the Real-World Evaluation of the Episoft® AC Moisturizer With Broad-Spectrum Sunscreen demonstrates the benefits of broad-spectrum sunscreens in managing skin conditions and enhancing skin hydration.
Oxygenetix Oxygenating Foundation
Oxygenetix Oxygenating Foundation is designed to soothe and conceal skin after laser, chemical peel, or micro-needling procedures. Research indicates that aloe vera can significantly improve skin hydration and soothe irritation, making it an ideal ingredient for sensitive skin types. Studies have shown that products containing aloe vera can enhance skin healing and reduce inflammation, supporting the claims of Oxygenetix's effectiveness for post-procedure care.

This is to avoid the product from oxidising. To get your bottle functioning correctly, cover the pump opening, pump a couple of times and you will feel the product engage. Just flip the bottle over, making sure that the lid is on, and give it a few firm taps in the palm of your hand and then give the pump another try. To keep your airless pump pumping All products within the Oxygenetix range use a unique airless pump system. This means that there is no dip tube. As the product is pumped out, the ‘trace’ follows it up the inside of the bottle. If the bottle gets warm or if it is bumped then the trace can move slightly back down making pumping out the product difficult. To fix this, simply invert the bottle and tap it a few times to bring the contents back into contact with the pump To keep your product fresh from the first pump to the last, we have incorporated the use of an airless pump and on occasion, this may take several pumps to get it started the first time you use it. Sometimes it may need a little extra help. Don’t worry though, it is an easy fix and you will be applying your foundation in no time. Just flip the bottle over, making sure that the lid is on, and give it a few firm taps in the palm of your hand and then give the pump another try.
