As one of the important antioxidants, it acts as a protection against photooxidation because it suppresses the negative effects of free oxygen radicals, which are formed during sunbathing and are considered one of the factors of cancer. Not only does it protect the skin from the sun and sunburn, but it also colors it nicely in bronze. It protects the skin from the harmful effects of the sun and at the same time provides us with a nice color, which has a greater durability.
