Protecting skin from what conventional sunscreens miss
What we do
At Perlion, we develop next generation sunscreen actives using advanced materials chemistry. Our flagship product, Solir, transforms FDA-approved components into a new class of light-absorbing materials that extend protection beyond traditional UV— without introducing new chemical filters.
What’s wrong with my sunscreen?
Sun protection hasn’t kept pace with what we know about light exposure. While today’s sunscreens focus on blocking UVB and UVA, high-energy visible (HEV) light has been shown to penetrate deeper into the skin, where it contributes to oxidative stress and premature skin aging. Consumers want broader protection, regulators want safer ingredients, and sunscreen manufacturers want solutions that can work today.
What’s the solution?
Solir is a novel sunscreen active ingredient that absorbs UV and HEV light using a single integrated material. It delivers true full-spectrum protection while remaining FDA-compliant and compatible with existing mineral formulations.
