In-universe, Guardians use their own Light to defend themselves. Their armors and outfits are designed to help channel that Light but their toughness comes from the Light. There's a set of Warlock robes that are captioned with something like "You may be able to stop bullets with your Light, but you aren't invincible... yet."
