Abstract
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is the primary cause of various skin diseases, necessitating the need for UV protection. Topical sunscreens are the most commonly used method to achieve this. However, traditional sunscreen formulations have limitations that hinder their widespread use. Evidence suggests that visible light and infrared light may play a role in photo aging and should be considered when choosing a sunscreen. Currently, there is a paucity of US FDA-approved filters that provide protection against long UVA (> 370 nm) and none against visible light. Additionally, various sunscreen additives such as antioxidants and photolyases have also been reported to protect against and possibly reverse signs of photoaging. This literature review evaluates the utility of sunscreen in protecting against photoaging and further explores the requirements for an ideal sunscreen. Developments in photo protection could lead to the creation of sunscreens with antioxidants that can neutralise reactive oxygen species (ROS) and stay on the skin's surface for extended periods of time. Antioxidants may enhance the photoshielding effect by squelching free radicals. Reviewing prospective herbal candidates with antioxidant qualities that can function as a potent barrier in cosmeceuticals to shield skin from damaging UVB rays, this paper concentrates on photoprotection from UVB radiation.
