NATURAL INGREDIENTS
100% natural sun protection. No chemical filters, and only the bare minimum of preservatives for continued performance.
WATERPROOF
HIMAYA sport sunscreens meet and exceed industry manufacturing standards for water resistance.
AQUA-FIX
This unique feature allows HIMAYA sports sunscreens to rub into the skin when already wet from water or perspiration. It is even possible to apply the cream when under water.
SWEATPROOF
Thousands of hours have been logged in testing the sweatproof performance of HIMAYA sport sunscreens.
Of major importance is that the skin be allowed to sweat freely during exercise. Many sunscreens block the skin’s pores and inhibit sweat, creating a very uncomfortable condition known as prickly heat.
Himaya has focused on this essential feature to ensure that our Sport Sunscreens are totally sweatproof while allowing the skin to sweat naturally through the sunscreen.
DRY-GRIP
The oils within HIMAYA sport sunscreen completely absorb into the skin, leaving your hands grease-free for perfect grip.
ZINC
Zinc is one of the best BroadBand UV filters currently available, covering the full spectrums of both UVB and UVA radiation. HIMAYA uses high concentrations of quality Zinc that provides outstanding BroadBand protection and will not leave a white residue on the skin.
LONG LASTING
The oils used to combine HIMAYA sports sunscreens are completely absorbed by the skin, and so bond the filters to the skin. Due to this strong bond, sun protection lasts for extended periods under all sport conditions, including when sweating and swimming.
FORTIFIED UV A+B FILTERS
No universal method or standard has yet been developed for determining or rating the UVA protection factor of a sunscreen. At present, a sunscreen that contains both UVB and UVA filters is said to provide Broad Spectrum or BroadBand Protection.
The SPF rating only indicates the ability of a sunscreen to protect the skin from the effects of the sun’s burning radiation; predominantly UVB, and some UVA radiation. For this reason, a sunscreen is not required to contain filters that protect from the entire range of UVA radiation. This small amount of UVA protection is, however, sufficient to claim Broad Spectrum Protection.
Using sufficient fortified filters to reinforce full coverage of all of both UVA and UVB radiation has even produced overlap to cover the UVC range, to provide a true BroadBand Spectrum of protection in HIMAYA sport sunscreens.
MOISTURISERS
Sun, wind, cold, and altitude all remove moisture and nutrients from the skin, leaving it distressed and weakened. HIMAYA sports sunscreens include a special combination of moisturisers that even stay active in subzero temperatures and saltwater, helping the skin maintain its natural defenses against the elements.
ANTIOXIDANTS
Antioxidants are added to HIMAYA sport sunscreens to help neutralise the Free Radicals that cause more permanent damage to the body?s cells from UV overexposure.
NO ALCOHOL
Alcohols can remove moisture from the skin and provoke skin irritations.
VITAMINS E+C
The HIMAYA sport sunscreens contain vitamins E and C to replace lost nutrients from exposure to the sun, accelerate skin healing and promote skin health.
NO PERFUME
Perfumes are a major cause of skin irritations.
