Some product just block UVB. Does this block UVA rays that cause skin aging?

No, but this is an awesome cream for all signs of aging. I'm 33 and everyone mistakes me for 18. It happens all the time. I began using olay products when I was 12. Began using anti-aging products by them at the age of 29. It really works. Use it twice a day. I don't know your age, but I stay out of the sun as much as possible. I wear hats to cover my face if I'm out in it. Stay away from tanning beds. Never let your face go dry. Lol, good luck:)

It doesn't make a claim to provide UV protection. What it does do is keep your leather supple and healthy. It has collagen, vitamin E, oils and other biodegradable ingredients that treat your leather like a good body or hand lotion that keeps your skin healthy, alive, and young.

When used as directed it prevents burning and tanning, so I assume it will help prevent sun/age spots due to sun damaged skin. I use sunscreen on my face every day year round but am careless about arms and legs. Consequently, unlike most of the rest of me, my facial skin is relatively unwrinkled and free of spots. I celebrated my 70th birthday earlier this month. Hope this helps.

It defuses the sun light. No squinting. Suppose to help with uv. You do not feel direct sun het. I like the product. Not easy to install.

I never tested it so I am assuming the UVB passed through since it is a thin plastic and I would have hoped the manufacture did test that. Also I felt it was safer to have a protective barrier between the water and the light tube just in case. UVB does pass though plastics and some glass but may be "diluted" or refracted and depending on the thickness and the clarity of the material it can be blocked completely. Also UVB does dissipate with distance so you need to read the details to ensure it is placed appropriately. Hope this helps....

It lets light in and blocks vision (you can't see in or out), but I don't know about UV rays. Very much like stained glass, just lots easier and cheaper.

I don't know what UPF is. If you meant SPF, Sun Protective Factor, blocking 96% of UV A and B is great, at least 30% SPF but probably better as it's actually blocking, not absorbing as sunscreens often do. There is a *distinct* difference between this and any other umbrella I've used. It's VERY effective.

The product states, 'an optimized combination of photostable UVA/UVB filters' so I assume yes. I really like it on my face as it does not clog pours, it soaks into my skin, and doesn't remain greasy. I don't mind paying a little extra for this product as it was recommended by my Mayo Clinic physician.

UV (ultraviolet) is NOT good for your skin (hands in this case). It would be like suntanning your face for 8 hours. There are gloves you can buy if you're going to use a UV lamp. I much prefer a NON-UV light -- for the health of my skin.

None listed on bottle I wear Skin Ceuticsls sunscreen (broad spectrum) SPF 50 over it in summer and 30 SPF in winter.

No, 99.3% of the UV produced by the bulbs is blocked for safety. Vitamin D from Sun exposure is due to the UV and bright light therapy is believed to work through the bright light hitting the retina and causing changes in the actions of the pineal gland. Please make sure to check legitimate medical sources for more detail and authorative information.

Not at all. It blends to your natural skin so you don't have that white look. I have used the Dermalogica tinted moisturiser and it gives more of a glow. This is not a tinted moisturiser but truly sunscreen.

I use UV Clear 46 to prevent hyperpigmentation. It has made a significant difference for that problem. Reconstructive & Dermatologist docs claim that any SPF above 30 does not provide more protection, it's just more expensive.

Yes all of these products work a little. You must stay out of the sun. I use a sunscreen and I take heliocare.

The answer, Lela, is, you can not be sure. The company did not bother to provide any information as to why/how the gloves block UV. The material is not listed (unless it is listed on the packaging) but even so, you would have to know which materials are known to block UV and then you would have to look at the how tightly the weave was...a lot of work for a customer. There is no percentage given, another red flag. Why wouldn't there be a percentage? Imagine buying a sunscreen which simply says "Blocks UV"...

No, it doesn't protect your skin from any of the bad Rays but it is great for after tanning to moisturize your skin
