When exposed to the sun, most UV filters generate reactive oxygen species (ROS), causing the inflammatory responses that age skin. DiamondCore™ is the breakthrough technology that reverses this process, eliminating 80% of ROS and preventing the reactions that cause aging.

SPF value measures UVB protection, but UVA accounts for 95% of UV rays that accelerate skin aging. Our patent-protected DiamondCore® zinc oxide is rated PA++++, offering the highest UVA protection possible.

In laboratory studies, DiamondCore® facilitated 2x more effective skin absorption of “bioactives”, key anti-aging ingredients you’ll find in our Photoaging Defense Cocktail, such as niacinamide. This allows these ingredients to work more effectively to reverse the signs of aging and restore the radiance of your skin.

Yes, Dynamic Age Defense is safe for sensitive, eczema-prone, and blemish-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 has passed HRIPT (Human Repeat Insult Patch Testing) and a 4 week in-vivo comedogenicity test which requires patients with diverse skin types to repeatedly apply Dynamic Age Defense to assess potential skin reactions.

Dynamic Age Defense is also 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 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 has been thoroughly tested and studied on all skin tones.
The UV protection factor of Dynamic Age Defense has also been tested on all skin tones. SPF and UVAPF testing that assess SPF value and PA-rating have included participants with Fitzpatrick skin types 1-6.

Yes, Dynamic Age Defense is safe for post-procedure skin. Post-procedure skin tends to be more sensitive and vulnerable to photodamage. 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 is safe for sensitive skin and poses very little risk of irritation. This superior safety profile, coupled with Dynamic Age Defense’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 may even improve and prolong the effects of cosmetic procedures by helping to preserve healthy collagen deposition.

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

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

Dynamic Age Defense 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 to act as a comprehensive “shield” on skin, protecting skin against ROS and UV radiation encountered throughout the day.

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 every day and reapply as necessary throughout the day.

Yes, Dynamic Age Defense is formulated to multitask as a sunscreen, lightweight cream moisturizer and reparative treatment for existing photodamage. Dynamic Age Defense contains multiple hydrators, emollients, and occlusives, which together make the perfect moisturizer. Skin actives like squalane, argan kernel oil, glycerin, and fatty acids pull moisture into skin and mimic naturally occurring skin matrix components to help reinforce your moisture barrier.

Yes, all elements apart from the nozzle are recyclable, including the glass bottle and outer packaging.
