Each capsule contains ASPA Fernblock, a powerful combination of two plant-based, antioxidant technologies, Fernblock and Aspalathus linearis (ASPA) extracts. Offering enhanced protection against UVA, UVB, visible light, and infrared-A radiation. Enriched with niacinamide (vitamin B3) and vitamin D, these capsules help prevent and repair sun damage, support skin health, and are ideal for individuals with sun-sensitive skin or those with specific skin concerns such as Actinic Keratosis and Melasma.

Dosage: Take 1 capsule daily before sun exposure. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose.

  • Enhanced Protection: Provides additional defence against UVA, UVB, visible light, and infrared-A radiation. 
  • ASPA-Fernblock Antioxidant Technology: Protects against oxidative stress and supports optimal vitamin D function. 
  • Vitamin D Optimisation: The ASPA-Fernblock OptiD effect supports the skin’s optimal vitamin D function by protecting its receptors, ensuring you get only the very best from the sun. 
  • Suitable for Sun-Sensitive Skin: Ideal for individuals with Actinic Keratosis, Melasma, or those undergoing aesthetic procedures. 
  • Complements Topical Sunscreens: Designed to work alongside topical sun protection for comprehensive skin care. 

It does not replace the need for topical sunscreen; topical sunscreen is still your first line of defence against harmful UV rays.



Importance of Vitamin D
Vitamin D is essential for healthy bones, and we get most of our from sunlight. Sunscreen products can reduce the sun's adverse effects, but it also inhibits the body's production of vitamin D. D Plus contains 5µg of Vitamin D to help replenish reduced Vitamin D when you use sunscreen products.

Directions
Take 1 capsule daily at least 30 minutes before sun exposure. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose.

Key Ingredients

NEW ASPA-Fernblock For Enhanced Protection

ASPA-Fernblock® is the latest evolution in skin photoprotection - a next-generation, bioactive complex designed to make sure your skin gets only the very best from the sun.

This patented innovation combines two powerful plant-based technologies:

  • Fernblock+, our powerhouse antioxidant complex. A patented extract of the Polypodium leucotomos fern clinically and scientifically proven to provide skin protection and support skin health.
  • ASPA, a patented combination of extracts from the Aspalathus linearis plant. Native to South Africa, and more commonly known as Rooibos, it is rich in flavonoids with proven biological activity and exclusive to Cantabria Labs products.

Together, they create ASPA-Fernblock, an additive complex that enhances the photoprotective power of your Heliocare product in two keyways:

  1. Boosting the efficacy of UV filters, delivering more comprehensive protection against the full spectrum of solar radiation - including UVA, UVB, visible light, and infrared-A11.
  2. Delivering the OptiD Effect - helping preserve the skin’s ability to use vitamin D by protecting its receptors.

Although sun exposure helps trigger vitamin D production in the skin, excessive UV and oxidative stress can damage Vitamin D Receptors (VDRs), making it harder for the skin to process and benefit from this vital nutrient4.

ASPA-Fernblock® helps solve this challenge. Through its OptiD Effect, it: 

  • Protects VDRs from oxidative stress, maintaining their integrity during sun exposure.
  • Supports optimal vitamin D function, even when the skin is under environmental stress.
