Over time, regardless of lifestyle, skin begins to change. Signs of ageing may appear, and fine lines, wrinkles, discolouration, and loss of elasticity can become more visible. These signs can be the result of collagen breakdown, slower cell turnover, and loss of moisture. Damage is intensified by sun exposure, environmental elements, and smoking. A strong preventative program is critical to help prevent further damage from these assaults. Additionally, SkinCeuticals® corrective products restore a healthier and more youthful appearance. This category includes products formulated specifically for delicate areas such as the eyes and lips.

Research shows that ageing skin is the result of more than just years on the calendar. Exposure to environmental elements like smoke, and air pollution can have negative effects on the appearance of skin and exposure to sunlight causes photo-ageing in skin, which can contribute to the appearance of lines, wrinkles, and skin discolouration. A comprehensive preventative programme can help protect against the visible signs of environmental aggressors and help protect against photo-ageing.

SkinCeuticals® sunscreens are formulated to provide true broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection to the skin. This advanced line of sun protection features Z-Cote®, transparent zinc oxide, to help protect skin from the damaging UVA rays, which are proven to accelerate the signs of premature skin ageing. SkinCeuticals® offers a variety of cosmetically elegant sunscreens for various skin types and lifestyles.
