Did you know that 90% of visible aging is caused by environmental damage, and the sun is the number-one offender? The main types of rays that damage our skin are UVA, UVB, and recent studies show now indicate Infrared A too, all of which can penetrate the skin and cause damage.
On the surface, this damage manifests as the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, sagging and loss of density, and an un-even looking skin tone, however beneath the skin’s surface there is additional damage.
To adequately help to protect skin from the damaging effects of the sun, sun protection needs to be a part of an everyday skincare routine. Nothing shields the skin like Heliocare 360°. The multi-award-winning range provides daily protection against UVA and UVB, plus visible light and infrared-A.
Heliocare offers a wide range of oral and topical photoprotection products with scientifically proven efficacy. Its formulas combine state-of-the-art filters and active ingredients with the exclusive Fernblock® technology–the brand’s secret weapon against sun damage.
Where to begin with Heliocare?
Heliocare 360° offers a full range of both oral and topical photoprotection products suitable for all skin types. The ideal photoprotection includes both a topical sunscreen, which you should apply before and during sun exposure, and a food supplement, which you should take before, during, and after sun exposure in order to help your skin cope with sun damage.
Regardless of whether you have dry, oily, spot-prone, or sensitive skin, there’s a Heliocare 360° product to suit everyone:
