dc.description.abstractUltraviolet radiation (UVR) has been scientifically proven to cause skin disorders such as sunburn, skin cancer and the symptoms of chronic exposure. Natural sun screening compounds have recently gained tremendous attention from the cosmetic and cosmeceutical sectors for treating skin disorders such as hyperpigmentation and aging. A wide range of natural UV-absorbing compounds have been used to replace or reduce the number of synthetic sunscreen molecules. One of the primary causes of photoaging is DNA damage, mainly caused by UVR. Photoprotection provided by traditional sunscreens is purely preventative and has no efficacy after DNA damage has been initiated. As a result, the quest for DNA-repair mechanisms that block, reverse, or postpone pathologic processes in UV-exposed skin has stimulated anti-photoaging research and methods to increase the effectiveness of traditional sunscreens. This review summarizes many natural compounds from microalgae, lichens, and plants that have demonstrated potential photoprotection effects against UV radiation-induced skin damage. Furthermore, it offers an overview of current breakthroughs in DNA-repair enzymes utilized in sunscreens and their influence on photoaging. � 2023 by the authors.
