The anti-ageing specialist in caring for face and body cares becomes the anti-ageing specialist in sun care to allow the benefits derived from the sun, without the fear of harmful effects. Indeed there is a growing consumer awareness of harmful effects due to excessive exposure to the sun:
- Sunburn and reactions
- Premature skin ageing
- changes in skin pigmentation
Under the sun, the skin is exposed to:
- UVA rays: they trigger tanning but penetrate deeply and cause premature ageing of the
skin by attacking the elastin and collagen fibres
- UVB rays: these are very aggressive, causing sunburns (erythema)
An excessive exposure to the cumulative and synergic effects of these rays damages the skin, which automatically reacts. Skin cells increase production of melanin (tan) which forms a natural protection shield. The cell turnover increases, the protective layer becomes thicker: it is called the “crocodile skin” effect. The natural defense system of the skin starts to repair minor damages…

1. Photo protection of the skin : anti UVA/UVB 2. Reinforced protection of the skin cells “cell guard” action 3. Stimulation of melanin production (tan) 4. Soothing and calming action 5. A double anti-ageing action on skin cell keratinisation (melatogenine) and turnover: Gatineau exclusivity |
