St. Francis Skin Defend UV Skin Support Details
Optimize and protect your skin. One capsule daily provides antioxidant protection from anthocyanins, flavanones, hydroxycinnamic acids and vitamin C to help defend against UV damage and photoaging.
The active is a red orange extract at 210:1 — 100 mg equivalent to 21,000 mg of dried fruit, standardised to 5.5-6.5% vitamin C, 8.5-9.5% bioflavonoids, 1.8-2.2% hydroxycinnamic acids and 2.8-3.2% anthocyanins. That level of standardisation is unusual and tells you the formula is built around specific compounds rather than a general fruit powder.
The idea behind oral photoprotection is that antioxidants taken internally reach skin tissue and help limit the oxidative damage UV exposure causes. It is a genuinely researched area, and distinct from sunscreen, which blocks UV before it reaches the skin at all.
St. Francis is explicit about the boundary: **this product does not intend to replace the need to apply sunscreen or to follow effective sun protection measures.**
St. Francis Herb Farm has been making herbal preparations in Ontario since 1988, using certified organic alcohol and distilled water, and stating extraction ratios so you know the strength of what you are taking.
Who St. Francis Skin Defend UV Skin Support Is For
This suits anyone spending time outdoors who wants antioxidant support alongside sunscreen, and people thinking about photoaging rather than burning specifically.
Consult a practitioner prior to use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. **This is not a substitute for sunscreen** — that is the manufacturer's own statement and worth taking at face value. Anyone relying on a capsule instead of sun protection has misunderstood the product.
