The term "pavise" was coined in medieval times to describe a full-body shield used to protect soldiers. This caliber of full-bodied protection is analogous to the level of protection against photoaging that all Pavise products achieve. Pavise drives innovation through a commitment to unparalleled defense against photoaging.

For example, our revolutionary DiamondCore® Shield Technology zinc oxide, featured in products like our Dynamic Age Defense SPF and Lip Defense SPF, provides the highest safety profile of all FDA-approved UV filters while achieving superior, longer-lasting protection against ROS, UVA, UVB, and Visible Light.

Pavise is more than a sunscreen brand. Pavise strives to provide multidimensional protection against photoaging. Sunscreens are seen as situational, optional, and seasonal. Comprehensive photoaging support is an everyday health practice that requires more than just sunscreen products. That’s why Pavise photoprotection includes both superior UV filters like our DiamondCore® zinc oxide and proprietary photoprotective actives that work synergistically to optimize photoprotection and actively reverse signs of photoaging.

In terms of its specific function as a sunscreen, Pavise products are the safest and most effective. Unlike most other mineral and chemical sunscreen options, Pavise exclusively uses one of the only two FDA-approved, GRASE-certified UV filters, zinc oxide. In contrast to other mineral and chemical options, Pavise never uses hidden, unregulated chemical UV filters to boost UV protection levels. This makes Pavise products pregnancy and child-safe, and suitable for sensitive skin, eczema-prone skin, and blemish-prone skin.

Pavise DiamondCore® zinc oxide is also 5X more effective than traditional mineral UV filters. Our patented DiamondCore® Shield Technology is the first true mineral broad-spectrum UV filter to deliver superior and longer wavelength protection from UVA, UVB, and Visible Light (VL) including HEVL and Blue Light, while scavenging Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) and free radicals at high efficiency. Our Proprietary Photoaging Defense Cocktail optimizes Dynamic Age Defense SPF’s photoaging defense via additional ROS and free radical eradication. The result—accelerated, comprehensive restoration of radiance and skin health.

Finally, because of DiamondCore’s® unique structure, Pavise products are always transparent on all skin tones, cosmetically elegant, and easy to integrate into existing skincare routines.

Pavise does not identify as a “clean” brand. “Clean” is an unregulated term that was originally created to communicate safety from harmful ingredients. “Clean” to one brand or retailer is not necessarily “clean” to another—Sephora Clean and Credo Clean are different. “Clean” beauty was the industry’s response to a beauty community rightfully suspicious of what they were applying to their skin. It has, however, been overtaken by unverified claims, questionable sources, and a lack of scientific evidence and discernment. Fearmongering and shock value are plentiful, and brands have ironically begun to compromise legitimate safety measures for the sake of “clean” claims.

Pavise understands the responsibility that brands have to communicate transparently, honestly, and accurately about the safety and efficacy of our products. Though all of our products do conform to Sephora Clean standards, for example, Pavise doesn’t adhere to sweeping ingredient bans. We assess the safety of each ingredient at its concentration in its specific formula based on peer-reviewed scientific data, standardized toxicity data, and feedback from our team of dermatologists, pediatricians, and medical oncologists. Each product undergoes HRIPT (Human Repeat Insult Patch Testing).

Pavise is committed to providing as much transparency as possible and will always provide evidence to support our safety claims.

Pavise does not identify as a “reef-safe” brand. “Reef-safe” is an unregulated term that was created in response to limited data in few peer-reviewed studies that showed that when exposed to high concentrations of chemical UV filters, corals died. The legitimacy of these findings and their real-world application has been deeply debated and there are studies that conflict this data. Some environmental thought leaders have lamented that the focus on chemical UV filters’ potential impact on coral reefs has overshadowed the very real and proven impact of carbon emissions and plastics on coral reefs.

Without firmer confirmation of the effect of chemical UV filters on reefs, Pavise does not consider itself a “reef-safe” brand even though we only use DiamondCore® Shield Technology zinc oxide, a mineral UV filter. We do recognize, however, the significant and very real policies that have been implemented in many tropical places like Hawaii and Key West that ban the use of chemical sunscreens. For this reason, we consider our products “vacation-friendly” instead.

DiamondCore® Shield Technology is Pavise’s patented diamond-augmented zinc oxide mineral UV filter active ingredient that is featured in our Dynamic Age Defense SPF and Lip Defense SPF. DiamondCore® zinc oxide has the same INCI and FDA-registration as traditional zinc oxide. Zinc oxide, including DiamondCore® zinc oxide, is classified as one of the only two FDA-registered UV filters that is GRASE (generally recognized as safe and effective). DiamondCore® zinc oxide is considered the safest UV filter for those with sensitive skin, eczema-prone skin, and blemish-prone skin because it does not penetrate skin and is therefore unlikely to cause irritation or contact dermatitis. DiamondCore® zinc oxide is also the safest UV filter for pregnant and breastfeeding people, and children.

Despite its superior safety profile, traditional zinc oxide is sometimes ignored as a preferred UV filter because it can produce a white cast on skin, particularly on darker skin tones, and may not feel as nice to apply on skin. DiamondCore® zinc oxide, however, has a unique and standardized size and shape. These characteristics allow DiamondCore® zinc oxide to more efficiently scatter and reflect light, and prevent a white cast from appearing, even on the darkest skin tones. Its special structure also makes it easy and luxurious to apply. No more thick or goopy sunscreens.

Finally, DiamondCore® zinc oxide performs 5X better than traditional zinc oxide at absorbing, scattering, and reflecting UVA, UVB, and HEVL. UV protection is more efficient and comprehensive for UV radiation across the light spectrum. This is how Dynamic Age Defense SPF and Lip Defense SPF with DiamondCore® zinc oxide are able to achieve SPF 30, PA++++ UV protection without using hidden chemical UV boosters often included in both mineral and chemical sunscreen formulas for enhanced efficacy. Finally, the diamond core in DiamondCore® zinc oxide eradicates 80% of UV-generated Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), a type of free radical that contributes significantly to photoaging. In contrast, most UV filters produce their own ROS when metabolizing UV radiation.

DiamondCore® Shield Technology zinc oxide provides unparalleled safety and photoprotection, making it the most effective defense against photoaging.

All Pavise products except for the UV Camera are made in the U.S.A.

Yes, Dynamic Age Defense SPF is safe for sensitive and eczema-prone skin. Each ingredient, its concentration, and the complete formula has been reviewed by Pavise’s team of dermatologists, pediatricians, and medical oncologists who assess risk of irritation and allergenicity. DiamondCore® Shield Technology zinc oxide is GRASE-certified (Generally Recognized As Safe and Effective) by the FDA, and as a mineral UV filter, is the UV filter recommended most to those with inflammatory skin conditions. In addition, Dynamic Age Defense SPF has passed HRIPT (Human Repeat Insult Patch Testing) which requires patients with diverse skin types to repeatedly apply Dynamic Age Defense SPF to assess potential skin reactions.

Yes, Dynamic Age Defense SPF is safe for blemish-prone skin. Dynamic Age Defense SPF underwent a 4 week in-vivo comedogenicity test and passed. This allows it to be classified as non-comedogenic, which means that it does not cause acne or clog pores.

Yes, Dynamic Age Defense SPF is safe for pregnant and breastfeeding people. Each ingredient, its concentration, and the complete formula has been reviewed by Pavise’s team of dermatologists, pediatricians, and medical oncologists who assess risk to pregnant and breastfeeding people. Doctors recommend that pregnant and breastfeeding people use photoprotective products that only contain mineral UV filters. Dynamic Age Defense SPF contains only DiamondCore® Shield Technology zinc oxide, a GRASE-certified (Generally Recognized As Safe and Effective) mineral UV filter. Unlike most mineral and chemical sunscreens, Dynamic Age Defense SPF does not contain any unregulated, hidden chemical UV filters that may pose a safety risk to pregnant and breastfeeding people.

Yes, Dynamic Age Defense SPF is safe for children. Each ingredient, its concentration, and the complete formula has been reviewed by Pavise’s team of dermatologists, pediatricians, and medical oncologists who assess risk to children. Doctors recommend that children use photoprotective products that only contain mineral UV filters. Dynamic Age Defense SPF contains only DiamondCore® Shield Technology zinc oxide, a GRASE-certified (Generally Recognized As Safe and Effective) mineral UV filter. Unlike most mineral and chemical sunscreens, Dynamic Age Defense SPF does not contain any unregulated, hidden chemical UV filters that may pose a safety risk to children.

Yes, Dynamic Age Defense SPF is suitable for all skin tones and ethnicities. Though traditional mineral UV filters like zinc oxide and titanium dioxide are known to produce a white cast on darker skin tones, DiamondCore® Shield Technology zinc oxide used in Dynamic Age Defense SPF does not. Its unique size and shape allows DiamondCore® zinc oxide to more efficiently absorb, scatter and reflect light. This means that DiamondCore® zinc oxide does not reflect a white color and produce a white cast. The transparency of Dynamic Age Defense SPF has been thoroughly tested and studied on all skin tones.
The UV protection factor of Dynamic Age Defense SPF has also been tested on all skin tones. Both SPF and UVAPF testing that assess SPF value and PA-rating have included participants with Fitzpatrick skin types 1-6.

Yes, Dynamic Age Defense SPF is safe for post-procedure skin. Post-procedure skin tends to be more sensitive and vulnerable to photodamage. This makes photoprotection particularly important after receiving cosmetic procedures to prevent hyperpigmentation, scarring, inflammation, and photoaging. Common chemical sunscreens, however, can exacerbate the irritation and inflammation experienced after cosmetic procedures because they are capable of more easily penetrating into deeper layers of skin. Pavise’s team of dermatologists has determined that Dynamic Age Defense SPF is safe for sensitive skin and poses very little risk of irritation. DiamondCore® Shield Technology zinc oxide does not absorb into skin the way chemical UV filters do. This superior safety profile, coupled with Dynamic Age Defense SPF’s comprehensive UVA, UVB, and Blue Light protection make it a non-irritating and effective protectant post-procedure. Regular use of a sensitive skin-safe photoprotective product like Dynamic Age Defense SPF may even improve and prolong the effects of cosmetic procedures by helping to preserve healthy collagen deposition.

Yes, Dynamic Age Defense SPF helps to fade discoloration and dark spots through three main mechanisms. 90% of extrinsic aging is caused by photoaging. This includes dark spots, the majority of which are caused by UVA-induced damage. DiamondCore® Shield Technology zinc oxide has a PA++++ rating, which is the highest UVA protection factor rating given to sunscreens. This means that Dynamic Age Defense SPF provides the highest level of protection against the UVA radiation that causes dark spots. DiamondCore® zinc oxide in Dynamic Age Defense SPF also scavenges 80% of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) produced in skin as the result of UV damage and environmental stressors. ROS can also exacerbate discoloration so by eliminating ROS, discoloration is also mitigated. Finally, Dynamic Age Defense SPF’s Photoaging Defense Cocktail contains actives like tranexamic acid, licorice root extract, and niacinamide, which disrupt cellular mechanisms that result in dark spots.

Melasma is a specific, particularly stubborn kind of hyperpigmentation that results from photodamage. Dynamic Age Defense SPF is formulated with DiamondCore® Shield Technology zinc oxide, which provides superior protection against UVA, UVB, and Visible Light radiation. Regular use of sunscreen has been shown to help manage melasma. Dynamic Age Defense SPF also contains tranexamic acid, which has been clinically proven to help improve the signs of melasma.

Yes, Dynamic Age Defense SPF helps with fine lines and wrinkles. 90% of extrinsic aging is caused by photoaging. More specifically, UVA radiation contributes to the majority of UV-induced skin aging. Dynamic Age Defense SPF is formulated with DiamondCore® Shield Technology zinc oxide, which provides superior protection against UVA, UVB, and Blue Light radiation. DiamondCore® zinc oxide has a PA++++ rating, which is the highest UVA protection factor rating given to sunscreens. This makes Dynamic Age Defense SPF particularly effective at treating fine lines and wrinkles.

DiamondCore® zinc oxide in Dynamic Age Defense SPF also scavenges 80% of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) produced in skin as the result of UV damage and environmental stressors. This, coupled with the potent antioxidant activity of our Photoaging Defense Cocktail, also helps to smooth fine lines and wrinkles.

Dynamic Age Defense SPF may help with acne. In addition to its UV-protective abilities, zinc oxide also helps to calm irritation and control oil production. These qualities may help to manage the signs and symptoms of acne. Dynamic Age Defense SPF also underwent a 4 week, in-vivo comedogenicity test and was classified as non-acnegenic and non-comedogenic.

Yes, Dynamic Age Defense SPF is vegan and cruelty-free. We're committed to providing you with high-quality, ethical products that you can feel great about using.

Yes, Dynamic Age Defense SPF is alcohol-free. This may be confusing because cetyl alcohol is included in our ingredient list. Cetyl alcohol, however, is a fatty alcohol which is quite different from the drying ethyl alcohol that can dehydrate skin and cause irritation. Cetyl alcohol is actually a waxy, moisturizing ingredient that softens skin.

All our products are nut-free except for our Dynamic Age Defense SPF, which contains argan oil. Note that it is unlikely that this will cause any reaction for those with traditional peanut/tree nut allergies.

Yes, Dynamic Age Defense SPF is fragrance-free. Dynamic Age Defense SPF was formulated to be safe for sensitive and eczema-prone skin.

No, Dynamic Age Defense SPF is not organic, but we are constantly looking to improve our products so if this is important to you, please let us know.

Dynamic Age Defense SPF is not water-resistant. We highly recommend following the FDA guidelines on reapplying to ensure proper protection from the sun's harmful rays. Applying sunscreen 15 minutes before sun exposure and reapplying every two hours or immediately after swimming, sweating, or toweling off is crucial for effective sun protection. Additionally, seeking shade during peak sun hours and wearing protective clothing, such as hats and sunglasses, can further reduce your risk of sunburn and skin damage.

Yes, Dynamic Age Defense SPF is non-comedogenic and non-acnegenic, as determined by a 4 week in-vivo comedogenicity test.

Dynamic Age Defense SPF is a 3-in-1 sunscreen, moisturizer, and potent treatment that boosts skin radiance, fades discoloration, and smooths wrinkles. By itself, Dynamic Age Defense SPF is the best defense against photoaging. Dynamic Age Defense SPF, however, is gentle enough to be used with any other skincare product. It layers well over other moisturizers, treatments, and serums, and under makeup. Dynamic Age Defense SPF was designed not to pill.

Lip Defense SPF is the perfect complement to Dynamic Age Defense SPF to offer additional UV protection to your lips. This is particularly important since UV damage to lips can cause collagen degradation, and even filler migration.

Gentle Amino Powerwash is the best way to ensure that all traces of Dynamic Age Defense SPF are removed at the end of the day so that you can wake up fresh-faced and ready to reapply.

Dynamic Age Defense SPF is a light but luxurious cream consistency. It’s easily spreadable across skin and leaves skin feeling deeply moisturized and protected. When Dynamic Age Defense SPF is fully absorbed into skin, it leaves a radiant, natural finish that is very slightly tacky. This makes it optimal for layering under makeup.

Dynamic Age Defense SPF has undergone stringent safety and efficacy testing. Dynamic Age Defense SPF has undergone drug stability testing, HRIPT (Human Repeat Insult Patch Testing) to verify its safety for sensitive skin, and a 4 week in-vivo comedogenicity test to confirm that it is non-comedogenic. Dynamic Age Defense SPF claims were also tested in an 8 week in-vivo consumer perception test, which validated its ability to fade discoloration, improve skin texture, and improve the depth of fine lines and wrinkles. Finally, Dynamic Age Defense SPF underwent broad spectrum, UVAPF, and SPF testing to validate is superior UV protection. These test results are always available to view upon request.

Dynamic Age Defense SPF is gentle enough to be used with all other skincare products, though it’s always best to consult with a dermatologist, patch test, and slowly increase to daily use as with all skincare products. In fact, Dynamic Age Defense SPF may complement more “temperamental” active ingredients like tretinoin, retinol, AHAs, and BHAs by providing superior and more comprehensive photoprotection when skin is made more sensitive by such ingredients.

It is important to note, however, that chemical sunscreens that contain the chemical UV filter avobenzone should not be used with Dynamic Age Defense SPF. Some like to layer chemical and mineral sunscreens in the hopes of achieving better photoprotection. Avobenzone, however, can degrade more quickly in the presence of zinc oxide which defeats the purpose of layering the chemical and mineral UV filters. Dynamic Age Defense SPF with DiamondCore® zinc oxide is SPF30 and PA++++ and offers comprehensive protection against UVA, UVB, and VL on its own.

The shelf life of Dynamic Age Defense SPF is 2 years.

Dynamic Age Defense SPF is meant to be applied as the last step of your skincare routine, after all other treatments, serums, and moisturizer. This allows Dynamic Age Defense SPF to act as a comprehensive “shield” on skin, protecting skin against ROS and UV radiation encountered throughout the day.

Dynamic Age Defense SPF is made in the U.S.A.

Dynamic Age Defense SPF is gentle and versatile enough to apply anywhere and everywhere on your body. Remember to apply sunscreen to your hands and neck—areas that are often exposed to UV radiation but are often forgotten when it comes to sunscreen application.

Photoaging defense and sunscreens are not situational, seasonal, or optional. For the best results and protection against photoaging, it’s important that you apply Dynamic Age Defense SPF every day and reapply as necessary throughout the day.

Yes, Lip Defense SPF is safe for sensitive and eczema-prone skin. Each ingredient, its concentration, and the complete formula has been reviewed by Pavise’s team of dermatologists, pediatricians, and medical oncologists who assess risk of irritation and allergenicity. DiamondCore® Shield Technology zinc oxide, the active ingredient in Lip Defense SPF, is GRASE-certified (Generally Recognized As Safe and Effective) by the FDA, and as a mineral UV filter, is the UV filter recommended most to those with inflammatory skin conditions. Lip Defense SPF does not contain any dyes or lakes typically used to color makeup products because they’re more prone to cause irritation in sensitive skin types. In addition, Lip Defense SPF has passed HRIPT (Human Repeat Insult Patch Testing) which requires patients with diverse skin types to repeatedly apply Lip Defense SPF to assess potential skin reactions.

The active ingredient in Lip Defense SPF is our patented DiamondCore® Shield Technology zinc oxide. Our DiamondCore® zinc oxide has the same INCI name and is FDA-registered as the same traditional zinc oxide mineral UV filter. It is one of the only two FDA-approved mineral UV filters (out of the 16 FDA-registered chemical and mineral UV filters) that is GRASE-certified, or generally recognized as safe and effective. DiamondCore® zinc oxide is unique, however, in that it has a diamond core and a unique size and shape that make it transparent on all skin tones, more cosmetically elegant, 5X more protective against UVB/UVA/VL, and able to scavenge 80% of ROS produced in skin that typically cause cellular damage. DiamondCore® zinc oxide provides safer and more efficient UVA/UVB/VL protection and a luxurious texture on lips.

Lip Defense SPF has a light, luxurious oil consistency. It provides just enough glide and moisture to lips without being sticky or tacky. It spreads easily across lips and leaves a natural but radiant shine and wash of color. Lips are left feeling deeply moisturized, softened, supple, and protected.

Lip Defense SPF has undergone stringent safety and efficacy testing.

Yes, Gentle Amino Powerwash has been reviewed by Pavise’s team of dermatologists and pediatricians and is considered safe for pregnant and breastfeeding people. Though Gentle Amino Powerwash contains the AHA glycolic acid, it is included in formula at less than 10%. This means that it is included at a concentration below the safety threshold for pregnant people.

Yes, Gentle Amino Powerwash is suitable for all skin tones and ethnicities. All Pavise products were formulated with diverse skin tones in mind.

Gentle Amino Powerwash contains glycolic acid and niacinamide, which both help to visibly fade discoloration and dark spots. Glycolic acid is one of two eczema-safe AHAs and helps to slough off dead skin and buildup. By encouraging cell turnover, this gentle exfoliation helps to even skin tone. Gentle Amino Powerwash also contains niacinamide, which is a potent and multitasking antioxidant. Niacinamide is uniquely stable in the presence of UV radiation and scavenges free radicals produced in UV-exposed skin that typically damage skin cells and cause dark spots. Niacinamide has also been shown to block melanin transfer from deeper layers of skin to surface layers of skin, helping to reduce the appearance of discoloration.

Gentle Amino Powerwash is a great starting point for any skincare routine. Its amino acid-based surfactants are powerful enough to thoroughly cleanse and break down makeup and sunscreen without stripping or drying out skin. This eliminates the need to double cleanse, but for those with particularly dry skin or for those who prefer to double cleanse, oil-based cleansers and cleansing balms work well with Gentle Amino Powerwash.

We always recommend following Gentle Amino Powerwash with your favorite toner, serum, then moisturizer. Finish your routine with Dynamic Age Defense SPF and a swipe of Lip Defense SPF so that you’re equipped with the best defense against photoaging as you encounter UV radiation and environmental stressors throughout your day.

Gentle Amino Powerwash is a creamy, cushiony gel texture when first dispensed. Once water is added, it lathers into a light foam that allows for easy removal.

We also recommend starting use 1-2X/week and then slowly increasing to more regular and daily use, as with all new products introduced into your routine.

The UV Camera optimizes sunscreen application by assuring uniform and complete coverage and allows for early detection of photoaging. Designed for use with the Pavise app, available on the Apple App Store, the UV Camera utilizes advanced lens technology to reveal existing sun damage below the skin’s surface. This enables early detection of future dark spots, age spots, discoloration, and melasma. Normally invisible sunscreen is also revealed by the UV Camera, helping to improve sunscreen application and removal by making apparent how UV-protective the sunscreen is, how uniform the coverage is, and where spots might have been missed.

The UV Camera is ideal for skincare enthusiasts looking to make the most of their sunscreen, cleanser, and other products, as well as those seeking to protect their skin fully, reduce the risk of skin cancer, repair existing photodamage, and prevent future photoaging.

The UV Camera detects UV rays that reflect off skin. On the Pavise app, skin appears blue in areas where the camera detects UV radiation reflected back at it. Sunscreens work primarily by absorbing UV radiation; this absorption prevents UV radiation from reflecting back to the camera, making areas protected by sunscreen appear darker on the app than surrounding blue areas. This is the same reason that black objects appear black—because their surface absorbs the entire Visible Light spectrum rather than reflecting any color back. You’re able to quickly identify areas of your face and body that you may have missed during sunscreen application because protected areas appear significantly darker than unprotected ones where UV radiation is reflected back into the camera.

Currently, we accept all major credit cards, HSA, and FSA. We also have two flexible payment options, AfterPay and Catch.

Health Saving Accounts (HSAs) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) allow you to save money for health-related expenses on a pre-tax basis. These accounts are typically offered through employers and provide a way to set aside funds throughout the year.

With an FSA, if you do not have a card you may need to pay for eligible expenses out of pocket and then submit receipts for reimbursement. On the other hand, HSAs do not require reimbursement because the funds in the account are readily available to HSA holders.

Yes! Sunscreens are considered a non-prescription over-the-counter drug by the FDA, allowing them to be covered by HSAs and FSAs. All Pavise products are eligible for reimbursement at this time.

Note: While all Pavise products are eligible, reimbursements are ultimately determined by your individual insurance provider.

To pay with your FSA, simply place your order with a debit or credit card and submit your proof of purchase along with a statement from your insurance stating that the purchase will not be covered to your FSA (through your employer).

Afterpay is a Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) payment method that allows you to split your purchase into four interest-free payments, due every two weeks.

Here is how you can use it to pay at checkout:

1. Add the items you want to buy to your cart.
2. When you are ready to check out, select Afterpay as your payment method.
3. You will be prompted to sign up for an Afterpay account or log in if you already have one. You will need to provide some personal information and link a debit or credit card to your account.
4. After you have completed the sign-up process, you will be taken back to the checkout page. You will see the total cost of your purchase, as well as the amount of your first payment.

Catch is a free flexible payment method that allows you to make purchases directly via your bank account and earn store credit toward future purchases. To use this option at checkout, please follow these steps:

1. Choose Catch as your payment option at checkout (note that this will redirect you to Catch to create an account or log in if you already have an account.)
2. If you are new to Catch you’ll need to provide some information to set up your account like your phone number, name, email, and bank details.
3. Already have a Catch account? Simply verify your phone number and check out.

As a first-time user of Catch, you’ll earn an additional $10 on your first purchase in addition to your Pavise purchase earnings.

You can view and manage your Catch credits from your Catch account. Your Pavise Catch credits can be only redeemed online with Pavise and will need to be used before the expiration date. To redeem your Catch credits, just select Catch as a payment option on your next Pavise purchase and they will automatically apply. Note that you cannot use Catch credits on Pavise gift cards, but you can share your Catch credits with a friend from your Catch account!

Yes, we do for Dynamic Age Defense SPF, Gentle Amino Powerwash, and Lip Defense SPF. Simply select the subscription option on the product page and choose your recurring shipment frequency. You'll receive 10% off your first order and all recurring subscription orders. You can adjust the frequency of your subscription cycle at any time via your account portal.

At Pavise, we understand that subscribing to a product is a commitment, and we want to be transparent with you about our policy. When you sign up for a subscription, we ask that you commit to receiving at least two shipments. Of course, we hope that you will want to continue receiving our products well beyond that time frame, but you will also have the flexibility to cancel your subscription if it's not working for you after that point.

It's important to note that subscription orders are non-refundable, as we have already committed to producing and delivering your products on a set schedule. However, we are always here to listen to your feedback and make adjustments to your subscription where possible. Our goal is to create a long-lasting relationship with our customers and provide high-quality products and a service that you can rely on.

We chose black, UV-treated packaging to preserve product efficacy at peak potency and freshness, and to prevent formula oxidation and contamination with airless pumps.

All elements of all Pavise products are recyclable apart from Gentle Amino Powerwash’s nozzle.

We appreciate your dedication to being environmentally conscious. When it comes to recycling skincare products, it is important to consider the type of packaging that your product comes in. Different materials require different recycling methods.  

1. Empty the container: Make sure the container is completely empty of product before recycling.  
2. Clean the container: Rinse out the container with warm water and soap to remove any residue.  
3. Separate materials: If the packaging consists of multiple materials (such as a glass bottle with a metal nozzle), separate them before recycling.  
4. Recycle: Put the container(s) and/or box(es) in your recycling bin. Make sure to follow your local recycling guidelines and check which types of materials your recycling program accepts.  
5. If your product packaging cannot be recycled, consider repurposing it for something else or disposing of it properly to minimize its environmental impact.
