Australian Gold Information

Australian Gold (Sun Tan and After Sun Preparation) is a group of topical over-the-counter preparations used to protect the skin against the harmful effects of sunlight. It helps protect the skin against different forms of ultraviolet radiation, including ultraviolet B rays (UVB), which mainly cause sunburn and sometimes skin cancer, and ultraviolet A rays (UVA), which cause aging, deep skin damage, and skin cancer. Some of these products are also used to achieve a tan look without ever going into the sun.

The Australian Gold Botanical Sunscreen Lotions provide mineral sunscreen protection using classic active ingredients, titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, which function as physical sunscreens. Unlike chemical sunscreens that are absorbed into the skin, these mineral compounds sit on the skin's surface, creating a protective barrier that primarily reflects and scatters harmful UV rays. The inclusion of native Australian botanicals, such as the antioxidant-rich Kakadu Plum, adds a unique and nourishing dimension to these formulations.

Australian Gold also offers the Sport Sprays and the Spray Gel with Bronzer, both with sun protection factor rating of 30. These products contain a blend of chemical sunscreen filters, including avobenzone, homosalate, octisalate, and octocrylene. These ingredients function by being absorbed into the upper layers of the skin, where they absorb high-energy UV radiation and convert it into low-level heat, preventing it from damaging DNA and causing sunburn, and contributing to long-term skin cancer risk. The continuous formulation encourages frequent reapplication. The Spray Gel with Bronzer is unique in that it provides the same protection but with an instant, temporary cosmetic bronze from color additives like Caramel.

The Australian Gold Sunless Lotion offers a potent degree of cosmetic tanning without sun exposure. Its active ingredient, dihydroxyacetone, reacts with amino acids on the top skin layer to create a brownish tone, mimicking a sun tan without UV exposure. The entire purpose of this lotion is to prevent the aesthetic and health consequences of UV-induced skin damage (like photoaging and cancer) by eliminating the need for UV light to achieve a tan.
