UV rays and pollution…
Who or what protects your skin in the city?
Pollution not only harms your health, it also damages your skin. You don't need a PhD in Chemistry to be aware of it, Every day, city-dwellers' skin comes in contact with thousands of pollutants…

If urban buildings turn grey, it's because they are asphyxiated and attacked by air pollution. If skin is dull, it's because it is attacked every day by an increasingly polluted environment. It is suffocated by pollutants from exhaust fumes, industrial smoke, tobacco, air conditioning and the ozone.

Did you know that the free radicals generated by pollution, sun, stress, smoking, fatigue and the other little irritants of everyday city life dull the complexion and encourage skin ageing. The skin is weakened and no longer manages to reconstruct its barrier function. It is dehydrated, loses its radiance. We call this oxidative stress.

The most exposed areas?
The face, neck and hands

What can I do?

• Drink antioxidant-rich green tea.
• Eat a healthy diet.
• Avoid smoking.

Clarins Research understands the changes that have taken place in our modern lifestyle, and protects the skin from accelerated aging with an invisible film delivering triple UV ray, pollution and antioxidant protection called UV50. She has formulated a special combination of filters to offer broad spectrum protection from UVA and UVB rays. When in the city, skin is highly protected from the sun, as well as from the appearance of dark spots and visible signs of premature ageing.

Increased anti-pollution protection
Organic Alpine Sanicle extract paired with cantaloupe melon extract reinforce the formula's antioxidant action at the skin's surface and deep down. Protected from environmental stresses, your skin's youthfulness is thus preserved.
