Blue Light and Premature Ageing

Blue Light and Premature Ageing

 

Did you know that blue light can cause premature ageing of the skin?

It’s not only UVA and UVB light you need to protect your skin from, the ageing and hyperpigmentation you see might be from the exposure to blue light.


Exposure to blue light, emitted by the sun and our devices, including phones, laptops and other screens, can damage collagen and elastin, leading to fine lines and wrinkles.

How can you protect yourself from this blue light radiation?


1- Turn on Eye Care mode on the devices that you're using to reduce the amount of blue light emitted.


2- Choose a sunscreen that not only guards against UVB and UVA rays, but also blue light.


3- By applying antioxidant-containing products on a daily basis, you can fight the free radicals that result from harmful radiation exposure (UVA, UVB and Blue Light). Red algae contain one of the most powerful antioxidants—astaxanthin—which has been found to be 6,000 times more potent than vitamin C and 100 times more potent than Vitamin E.


Our Recovery & Repair Gel formula contains a blend of Red Algae, which has powerful antioxidants, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. It helps to reduce skin damage caused by sun exposure by shielding against harmful radiations, enhances the skin’s natural protective barrier and hydrates for softness and comfort.
