More than ever during the summer months, it is crucial that we maintain a healthy skincare regime ( we love Skinceuticals ) – especially for those of us living in the city, which is full of pollution. Spending more time outdoors and with the sun being that much stronger, puts us at a higher risk of sun-damaged skin. So how protected is your skin from UVA, UVB and consequently free radicals?
Using the right combination of products, means we can ensure we are doing all we can to protect our skin, prevent moderate signs of ageing and keep them at bay by combating environmental aggressors.
At Mallucci London, we are all about combining keys products for the ultimate results. We will always create a skin care regime which is bespoke to the individual. However, we have a combination of two products which are so important, that no-one should ever be without them – this we call ‘The Power Couple’! So, what exactly makes these products so powerful?
Let’s take a closer look at this two-step process to ensure your skin is protected;
Step 1: Vitamin C Serum
Skinceuticals Phloretin CF
If you have normal, oily or combination skin, Phloretin CF is an advanced broad-range UVA/UVB serum complete with hydrating vitamin C. The antioxidant treatment is perfect for use all summer long and improves fine lines, wrinkles, discoloration, and overall skin tone. It’s great for preventative care too. Apply liberally to the face, neck, chest, and hands, and environmental assailants won’t stand a chance.
Skinceuticals CE Ferulic
However, if you have dry, normal or sensitive skin, then you would need CE Ferulic, which is again a serum packed with pure vitamin C and other essential antioxidants. The broad-range UVA/UVB serum provides extra protection against damaging free radicals, infrared radiation, and ozone pollution. It addresses fine lines, wrinkles, skin laxity, and brightens a dull complexion.
Hero #2: SPF
After you have applied the Vitamin C serum on your skin in the morning, you should always follow with an SPF 50, or at very least an SPF 30, this is essential to prevent UV induced collagen breakdown and UV-induced dark spots. Skin Ceuticals broad-spectrum daily sunscreens contain state-of-the-art UV filters and are formulated with Z-Cote® transparent zinc oxide and SPF to protect the skin against the harmful effects of the sun.
