Genoa's Latest Innovations in Sun Protection
On April 20, 2026, Tokyo Beauty Science Institute will launch two innovative sun care products under its skincare brand, Genoa. The new
UV Cut Balm and
UV Block Cream are designed to provide gentle yet effective protection from harmful UV rays, reflecting the brand's commitment to skincare that prioritizes both safety and comfort.
The Philosophy Behind Genoa UV Protection
Understanding the need for reliable sun protection, particularly during the sunny months, Genoa focuses on creating products that foster daily use without stressing the skin. Their approach is unique: instead of employing chemical UV absorbers that can burden the skin, Genoa utilizes mineral particles to reflect UV rays naturally. This philosophy underlines their commitment to formulating products that enhance skin health rather than detract from it.
Key Features of the New Products
UV Cut Balm
The
UV Cut Balm is a first for Genoa as a balm-type sunscreen. This product emphasizes a lightweight feel and is fragrance-free, made without preservatives or surfactants that may irritate sensitive skin. Housed in an easy-to-use package, the
25g balm not only protects against strong sunlight but also moisturizes, making it ideal for areas like the neck, arms, and legs. This balm ensures hydration and comfort even in dry conditions with a protection level of
SPF 39.9 PA++++. Its formulation includes natural ingredients like zinc oxide and olive oil, establishing a barrier while caring for the skin.
