Prolonged exposure to Blue Light is mainly caused by natural light, but also by artificial light (through LED lighting, digital devices using LED technology, etc.). This exposure can induce similar physiological responses in the skin to UV exposure, resulting in the typical signs of premature skin aging such as loss of elasticity, dryness and fine lines.

WENEOS has been at the forefront of the development of in vitro methods for assessing the Blue Light (BL) – also known as High Energy Visible (HEV) – Visible (VIS) and Infrared (IR) protection offered by sun protection products. It is a fully validated and impartial independent test.

Note: This test method has not been reviewed or standardized by ISO (International Organization for Standardization), the FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) or any other worldwide regulatory agency. The test report does not provide any guarantee regarding the labeling and/or substantiation of claims, implicit or explicit.

We can assess the sun protection of your products in full compliance with official methods, or claim the properties of your products through exclusive tests developed by WENEOS.
