July 1, 2023,
Time to party, socialize and have fun outdoors.
Summer is here. The sun is here and most of us are glad for it.
It feels so much better than winter.
Makes you want to sing about it. Like the Beatles legendary George Harrison did.
“Here comes the sun, doo-doo-doo-doo
Here comes the sun, and I say
It’s alright
Little darlin’, it’s been a long, cold, lonely winter
Little darlin’, it feels like years since it’s been here
Here comes the sun, doo-doo-doo-doo
Here comes the sun, and I say
It’s alright.”
Alright. We love that. The sun is great.
The Sun is the star at the center of the Solar System. It is a nearly perfect ball of hot plasma, heated to incandescence by nuclear fusion reactions in its core. The Sun radiates this energy mainly as light, ultraviolet, and infrared radiation, and is the most important source of energy for life on Earth.
And what a life it creates.
Playing tennis.
Relaxing at the beach.
Walking with the trees at the park.
Backyard BBQ.
Outside patio lunches and dinners with a city view.
So good to us and in balance, good for us.
Vitamin D is a group of fat-soluble secosteroids responsible for increasing intestinal absorption of calcium, magnesium, and phosphate, and many other positive biological effects.
The major natural source of the vitamin is synthesis of cholecalciferol in the lower layers of epidermis of the skin, through a photo-chemical reaction of UVB light, from the sun exposure.
As shared by the informative source newsinhealth.nih.gov, “Our bodies were built to make good use of the sun. Sunlight also helps our skin make vitamin D, which is needed for normal bone function and health.”
Wonderful.
Time to shed more light.
UV-B lamps are lamps that emit a spectrum of ultraviolet light with wavelengths ranging from 290–320 nanometers. This spectrum is also commonly called the biological spectrum due to the human body’s sensitivity to light of such a wavelength.
UV-B light does not tan the skin very much, compared to the UV-A lamps that are used in tanning beds.
The main use of UVB lamps is as phototherapy lamp, meaning treating skin diseases with light. The diseases UV-B lamps treat are psoriasis, vitiligo, lichen planus, atopic dermatitis (eczema), and other skin diseases.
When the skin is exposed to UVB light of 290-300 nanometer, it creates vitamin D3.
Thousands of dermatology clinics around the world treat skin ailments using UV-B lamps.
That is post treatment. Think about being proactive with skin ailment prevention.
Sunscreen, is a photoprotective topical product for the skin that helps protect against sunburn and most importantly prevent skin cancer.
Sunscreens typically come as lotions, sprays, gels, foams, sticks, powders and other topical products. Sunscreens are common supplements to clothing, particularly sunglasses, sunhats and special sun protective clothing, and other forms of photo protection (such as umbrellas).
Medical organizations such as the American Cancer Society recommend the use of sunscreen because it aids in the prevention of squamous cell carcinomas.
Let’s think sunscreen.
We love the sun. We love the fun in the sun.
For those of us who spend a lot of time outdoors, we’re always looking for the next best sunscreen.
We may have found one.

– A white-cast-free formulation with high-spreadability
– Applied COSMAX’s patent technology, ‘Clear Fence’
– Plans to continuously introduce new sun care formulas to fulfill customers’ various needs
SEONGNAM, South Korea, June 29, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Global cosmetics research, development, and manufacturing (ODM) company COSMAX has completed the patent application for its own sunscreen formulation “Capsule Sun.” COSMAX plans to strengthen a formulation line-up of sunscreens in the global cosmetics market through technological advancements.
On the 28th, COSMAX announced that it has completed the trademark registration for ‘Clear Fence™’, its proprietary technology for sunscreen, and the patent application for “cosmetic compositions including capsules.” The new formulation is characterized by a transparent texture without emulsifiers. It combines the sun protection efficacy of sun care products with the moisturizing effect of skincare.
COSMAX developed the Capsule Sun formulation in response to the increasing demand for transparent and easy-to-apply sunscreens. The company applied its in-house technology that evenly disperses large particle oil ingredients into an aqueous phase without emulsifiers.
The Capsule Sun utilizes a visible capsule form containing sunscreen ingredients to ensure transparency. It provides the effect of sunscreen by forming an even protective barrier on the skin while creating a natural luminosity with moisturizing ingredients. As the formulation is free of emulsifiers, it does not cause white cast and is easy to apply after makeup.
In the global beauty market, the demand for sun care products is growing as applying sunscreen has become an essential skincare routine. Meanwhile, consumer preferences for sunscreen formulations vary by country and region. Europeans and North Americans prefer functional products that reduce damage from strong UV rays, while Asians prefer formulations that are less irritating and have good spreadability.
As tastes in sunscreen are being diversified, consumers consider various factors such as moisturizing effect, spreadability, and transparency when choosing sun care products.
To meet the evolving needs, COSMAX continuously expands its sun care products line-up by introducing new formulations such as sticks, milks, sprays, cushions, serums, and more.
Lee Byung Ju, CEO of COSMAX, said, “COSMAX has developed the Capsule Sun to meet the growing demand for transparent sunscreens.” He emphasized, “As a sun care sector is expected to grow in the global beauty market, COSMAX will continuously introduce new sun care formulations in line with the evolving trends and consumer preferences.”
In the first quarter of 2023, COSMAX’s sales of sunscreen products grew by approximately 130% compared to the same period last year as the global market moved out of the COVID-19 pandemic phase.
