There is no doubt: we need sunlight. And the reason is easy, it helps our body to produce vitamin D, very necessary for the normal function of our bones and general health. For this and many other reasons, Unesco decreed a day to commemorate the advances and contributions of light in the development of all vital fields of people. Today, May 16, the International Day of Light is celebrated. And Lancaster, the cosmetics firm that has managed to decipher the entire known spectrum of light and study its precise impact on the skin, also wants to praise it.
It is a reality that photoaging is responsible for up to 80% of visible skin changes. Although, as the number of sunny days per year increases, especially in the summer season, the need to protect and repair our skin becomes even more important, protection is necessary all year round. Although UVA and UVB rays are the main causes of photoaging, they represent less than 10% of the solar spectrum. Visible light and infrared correspond to the remaining 90%, which also cause premature aging of the skin.
The firm is not only a pioneer in sun protection since 1971, but today it is the number one brand in sun protection in Europe. And it is that Lancaster has continued to develop advanced technologies that protect the skin against the harmful effects of the sun, reinforce its resistance, activate and prolong the tan, and help repair the skin from sun damage to preserve its youthful appearance.
In this way, Lancaster products offer complete protection against the sun's rays, and also provide advanced repairing, anti-aging and soothing benefits for the skin. “Our goal was to design the ultimate beauty product that would simultaneously address all the needs that mature women may have, in terms of skin protection and anti-aging action,” says Dr. Olivier Doucet in relation to the Sun Perfect range, that this 2023 arrives improved.
"Sun Perfect is the definitive combination of high and broad sun protection (Full Light Technology) with very powerful anti-aging and illuminating technologies that address the main visible signs of aging: wrinkles, dull skin and age spots", details the vice president of I D of Lancaster.
The brand's scientists have developed an exclusive innovative and advanced technology, present in all Lancaster sun protection ranges: Full Light Technology, which targets 100% of the solar spectrum. This means that it extensively protects the skin against UVB, UVA, visible light, including blue light, and infrared light. In a unique combination, their clean, ocean-friendly sunscreen blend is powered by a biomimetic marine ingredient, which increases the effectiveness of skin cell protection against blue light by 99%. “Recent studies have highlighted that blue light favors the darkening of the skin and contributes to premature aging of the skin”, points out the doctor.
Targeting wrinkles, dark spots, dehydration and lack of firmness, the Sun Perfect line also includes other cutting-edge technologies that work together to provide comprehensive sun protection, help correct visible signs of aging, repair induced damage from the sun and improve skin's radiance for a natural, healthy glow all year long.
