DEFENCE MOISTURISER

Lightweight cream that firms ageing skin

Gives protection from pollutants and free radicals in a nourishing but light formulation. Prebiotics and probiotic extracts improve barrier function to firm and plump the skin.

50ml / FOR ALL SKIN TYPES

Detailed information

  • Provides daytime protection from pollutants in a nourishing but light formulation suited to all skin types.
  • Prebiotic and probiotic ingredients improve barrier function by bolstering the formation of tight junctions in skin cells.
  • An extract of Devil’s Claw is used to modulate your skin’s inflammatory response, which slows the ageing process.
  • A targeted extract of Kigelia is added to firm the skin and improve elasticity.

Key Ingredients:

  • Manketti and Yangu – these two ingredients work together to help block UVA and UVB rays at a low (but natural) SPF factor of around 4.
  • Prebiotics – Inulin and Alpha-Glucan Oligosaccharides have been included to shift the microbial population in a direction that will reduce inflammation and boost barrier function.
  • Probiotic extracts – the Defence Moisturiser uses BIOME+ LEVEL 2 + 3 probiotic Lactobacillus species to improve the beneficial microbial populations on the skin by having an anti-microbial effect on opportunistic microbes. The overall effect is to boost skin condition and plump the skin by improving hydration and T-junction activity.
  • Devil’s Claw Extract – Harpagoside and related compounds permeate the stratum corneum and reduce immunoreactive compounds to help with the protection of elastin and collagen.
  • Kigelia Extract – Kigelia extract has a strong firming effect on the skin. Results are seen after two weeks of continuous use.
  • Low Molecular Mass Hyaluronic Acid – the Hyaluronic Acid levels in this product are high. A strong hydrating and anti-wrinkle effect will be seen.

Directions for use

Apply twice daily to clean, dry skin.
