Here's a technological breakthrough in anti-ageing sun protection
that does more than protect you from UV rays. It allows you to stay
beautiful under the sun by protecting you against skin darkening and
pigmentation, uneven skin tone, age spots, wrinkles, sagging skin,
and dry leathery complexion.
Amazingly light, oil-free lotion with super
mild fragrance to provide an invisible shield to safeguard against
the damaging effects of the sun's UV rays and fluorescent lamps.

| Understanding
The Dangers of UVA & UVB |
| UV rays are
most damaging to skin. Apart from causing your skin to darken, they
also cause collagen to break down at a faster rate than with regular
chronological ageing. Exposure to UV rays accounts for 90% of the
symptoms of premature skin ageing - age spots, freckles, wrinkles,
sagging, and dry, leathery complexion. UV rays are also responsible
for more than 90% of all skin cancers, afflicting tens of thousands
annually.
While many believe that only beach-goers or those
who stay out for long hours under the sun are at risk, no one is
spared. Even short exposure can harm unprotected skin. Your skin
is exposed to UVA and UVB daily at home and at work. UVA rays can
actually pass through windows in your home and cars. Using an umbrella
or a wide-brimmed hat does not provide protection either as both
UV rays can reflect off the ground, exposing you to UV radiation.
Even on hazy, cloudy days, UV danger still exists because the rays
are still getting through. Being indoors isn't safe either as fluorescent
light bulbs emit both UVA and UVB rays!
So, how do you protect yourself? There is no need
to hide in the house with the shades drawn….. Just apply a
good sun block.

| UV
Rays & DNA Damage & Skin Cancer |
| Both UVA and
UVB have a negative impact on skin cell's DNA. UVB radiation harms
the DNA directly, while UVA indirectly causes DNA damage by increasing
free radicals in the skin, and free radicals are synonymous with accelerated
skin ageing! DNA is a cell's 'brain', and once it is damaged, the
cell loses its ability to function properly. Damaged cells replicate
abnormally and can potentially harm other cells. In the long run,
UV radiation accelerates skin ageing and increases your risk of getting
skin cancer. |

| Protecting
Little Ones From UV Rays |
| Kids are in
a dynamic state of growth, and are therefore more susceptible to the
threats of UV rays than adults. As a parent, you'd know that kids
love to spend their days outdoors and this means hours under the blazing
hot sun. Their delicate skin is exposed to harmful UV rays whenever
they participate in sports, Physical Education (PE) classes or extra
co-curricular activities in school, or wait for their transportation
after school, etc. There is no stopping them but you can definitely
protect them with a good sun block. |
