This stretch of hot sunny days has been great! But we can’t forget how damaging the sun is! 90% or more of skin aging is a result of sun damage 😩 We need to protect our skin daily!
Sunblock is our absolute best defense against the sun’s harmful UV rays but using skin care products packed with antioxidants can provide additional protection against UV damage.
Free radicals caused by ultraviolet radiation from sunlight damage the cells of our skin. They deteriorate the collagen and elastin fibers within the skin which leads to visible symptoms like fine lines, wrinkles, pigmentation and loose skin.
Antioxidants, like vitamins A, C and E work to help prevent and repair UV-induced free radical damage.
Vitamin C is a free radical scavenger. It stabilizes free radicals making them less reactive so that they can’t damage our cells. Vitamin C also helps boost collagen production and helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles and discoloration.
Vitamin A works deep within our skin. It helps stimulate collagen production and accelerates cell renewal and repair. It smooths fine lines and wrinkles and improves our skin tone.
Vitamin E is also a free radical scavenger preventing our cells from damage. It helps accelerate the skin’s healing process and is a great moisturizer.
