A common misconception is to only use SPF in the summer months. It should be an all year round inclusion in your regime and here is why.
Protect your skin by daily application;
- Sunburn
- Free radical damage
- DNA damage
- Immunosuppression
- Pigmentation
- Collagen breakdown
- Skin cancer
If in doubt whether to reach for SPF, this image may help you decide….
This image illustrates the skin of a road trucker, ultraviolet A (UVA) rays transmitted through the window of his delivery truck have severely damaged the skin on the left side of his face during the 28 years he has spent driving on the job.
As a result, the left side of his face looks roughly 20 years older than the right, this demonstrates the extent of damage the harmful rays can cause.
Heliocare offers a daily sun protection enriched with powerful antioxidants, Fernblock and DNA enzymes. Protection against UVA, UVB, visible light and infrared-A.
By use of intelligent ingredients you can help combat skin damage and protect your skin cells from harm.
A potent natural ingredient was discovered in plants, Fernblock® comes from the fern Polypodium Leucotomos. The plant developed a protective mechanism from the sun and this plant power can benefit the skin in so many ways such as defending skin cells from damage caused by the sun and protecting skin cell DNA.
Using the benefit of years of research and backed by clinical data, this is why I feel Heliocare is the only choice in supreme skin protection.
Consider this as daylight protection as the UVA, visible light and infrared-A can damage your skin all year round.
All these rays emitted by the sun are strong enough to penetrate clouds and glass, your skin is at risk even on cloudy days.
Antioxidants
As well as Fernblock®, Heliocare 360° also contains additional antioxidants to help boost the health of the skin, including green tea extract, vitamin C and E.
UV Protection
The Heliocare 360° mineral and non mineral filters absorb and scatter the sun’s rays. This combination offers a high level of protection in a comprehensive range to suit all skin types.
DNA repair enzymes
DNA damage is a core component of sun damage, this activity can cause the cells to stop functioning or worse cause mutations which could lead to skin cancer.
Every Heliocare 360° product contains potent DNA repair enzymes that work to repair damage and to prevent additional damage from occurring.
Visible Light and infrared-A protection
Damage to skin and premature ageing can be caused by visible light and infrared-A. A bioshield system contained in Heliocare 360° protects against visible light- like our own melanin yet more powerful in combating damage specifically caused by infrared-A.
Furthermore a recent development in skin care innovation saw the introduction of 3 new products.
Products specifically designed to treat specific skin conditions such as pigmentation, adjuvant protective treatment of actinic keratosis (AK) and help to prevent the signs of ageing.
