Skeyndor, a leading brand in professional cosmetics, revolutionizes skin care with AGE PHOTO DEFENSE 365days, a new solar line designed to protect against the sun, pollution, and blue light all year round and enhances the action of vitamin D in the skin thanks to its innovative technology [D+] TECH.
It is true that lighter skin is more susceptible to sun damage, but darker skin also needs protection. And although the sun may seem less intense in winter, UV radiation is still present and can damage our skin. Moreover, the damage caused by sun exposure without adequate protection is cumulative, increasing the risk of premature aging, the appearance of spots, and even the development of skin cancer. All of this is multiplied when we add the free radicals generated by sunlight to the free radicals produced by environmental pollution upon contact with the skin.
Skeyndor has designed AGE PHOTO DEFENSE 365days, a solar line with a very high (SPF 50+) and high (SPF 50) broad-spectrum sun protection that protects the skin from UVA, UVB, HEVis, and IR rays, free radicals, and urban pollution taking into account every skin type, whether normal, combination/oily, or even the most sensitive skin, while helping to prevent photoaging and achieving complete hydration and nutrition of the skin. And all this, ensuring global defense without compromising the natural production of vitamin D, essential for skin health.
Exclusive [D+]TECH technology that enhances vitamin D absorption
Vitamin D is responsible for strengthening the skin barrier, stimulating cell renewal, regulating pigmentation and sebum production, stimulating collagen and elastin production, promoting healing, helping to improve symptoms of acne, psoriasis, and eczema, has antioxidant properties that combat free radicals responsible for premature skin aging, and improves blood circulation. Therefore, vitamin D deficiency is an invisible threat to the skin.
The lack of exposure to sunlight is the main cause of its deficiency, a problem that has been exacerbated by the increasingly necessary and widespread use of sun protection with higher protection factors. Additionally, over time, the skin reduces its ability to synthesize this vitamin and decreases the activity of its receptors (VDR). To counteract these effects, it is not only necessary to provide an extra supply of vitamin D, but it is essential to promote that the receptors (VDR) help to fix vitamin D in the skin, allowing it to act biologically in skin cells.
That is why Skeyndor has developed the innovative [D+]TECH Technology, which activates vitamin D receptors (VDR) and optimizes their absorption and biological function in skin cells. Thanks to this technology, the number and effectiveness of the receptors are increased, the skin barrier is reinforced, and the skin's regeneration capacity is accelerated.
Active ingredients and benefits
The [D+]TECH Technology exclusively combines fructooligosaccharides (FOS) from beet and chicory, along with powerful actives such as Crambe Maritima extract, Carnosine, and Biosaccharide Gum-4. These ingredients work in synergy to protect, regenerate, and enhance skin health.
- Chicory extract: Reactivates and restores the function of vitamin D receptors (VDR) in the skin, returning them to levels typical of young cells. Additionally, it strengthens the skin barrier without the need for sun exposure and enhances the action of vitamin D while respecting its microbiota.
- Beet extract: Stimulates the expression of VDR to counteract vitamin D deficiency in the skin, improves cell renewal, and reinforces the protective barrier. As a result, it increases the expression of vitamin D receptor (VDR) and its activation (VDR-SerP).
- Crambe Maritima extract: Protects epidermal stem cells from sun damage, reducing the harmful effects of UVB-UVA radiation and preserving the integrity of stem cells (germinative) (+23%) against UVB rays.
- Carnosine: Protects the skin from UV rays, helps with cell repair and regeneration, has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, offers protection against infrared damage, and prevents hyperpigmentation caused by visible light (VL).
- Biosaccharide Gum-4: Reinforces hydration, combats skin aging, and acts as a protective barrier against pollution and harmful particles in the environment.
This cocktail of cutting-edge ingredients guarantees complete protection and advanced care, helping to maintain healthy, radiant, and protected skin every day of the year.
- Facial photoprotection:
- Protective emulsion: for all skin types, high protection (SPF 50). Invisible texture for all skin types. Does not sting the eyes. Dermatologically and ophthalmologically tested.
- Protective cream: normal skin, very high protection (SPF50+). Combination of FOS from beet and chicory. Crambe Maritima extract, Biosaccharide gum-4, carnosine.
- Mattifying protective cream: combination/oily skin. Very high protection (SPF50+). Specific ingredients for combination/oily skin. Lentil oligosaccharides that smooth the appearance of the skin by reducing enlarged pores and plant absorbents that eliminate excess sebum from the skin.
