Protect your skin against digital aging

We often forget that when we stream our favorite series or scroll through our messages, we also expose our skin to harmful blue light. Among other things, this screen light but also WiFi radiation causes the skin to age faster and we get wrinkles sooner. The Multi Light Shield Protection Cream is a rich conditioning cream that protects the skin from urban pollution and digital aging. 

Since the pandemic, we are all sitting behind a screen more and more. Modern technology is great, but it also comes at a price. Too much blue light causes oxidative stress and reduces skin elasticity, which can lead to an uneven complexion and general dullness.

Daylight is very important for your skin, for the natural production of vitamin D. But that we need to properly protect ourselves from UVA (aging) radiation and UVB (burn) radiation is by now obvious. However, we often forget that UVA radiation is around us 365 days, every second of the day. This radiation passes through the skin and thus constantly acts on your cells, causing cellular aging. We naturally want to protect ourselves from that. UVB radiation, especially present in the summer months, gives you a nice tan, but sun burned skin is severely damaged skin that can lead to even more problems.

Infra red light causes breakdown of collagen and elastin fibers which also causes skin aging. And what about blue light? The light given off by computers, tablets, LED lights, TV or cell phone? Blue light in small amounts can be antibacterial. But the blue-purple color, which we also call HEV (high energy visible) light can promote pigmentation and cause cellular and skin aging by forming free radicals. These free radicals attack our skin cell and cause breaks in the collagen fibers. Thus, inflammation can occur in the skin cell. The cell barrier function decreases and the cell receives less nutrients such as oxygen. The moisture content in the skin also decreases. Your skin thus becomes weaker and less resistant to negative external influences. And it shows in the mirror. A drier skin with more wrinkles and pigmentation spots.
