Prevent:

Skincare research shows that aging skin is the result of more than just years on the calendar. Exposure to environmental elements like sunlight, smoke, and air pollution causes photoaging in skin. Not only does this lead to the formation of lines, wrinkles, and pigmentation- it can lead to more serious skin conditions, including skin cancer. 
A comprehensive antioxidant program can help prevent photoaging and the onset of more serious skin conditions. Topical antioxidants have now been shown to provide up to four times the skin’s natural protection from UV damage. Sunscreens are also an process, although they cannot do it alone. Antioxidants protect your skin from the sun in ways that sunscreens can’t. When used together, antioxidants and sunscreens provide almost complete photoprotection - preventing photoaging, preventing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and promoting good skin health.

SkinCeuticals has developed a full menu of super-antioxidant formulas for all skin types - designed to provide the most advanced protection from environmental aging.

Vitamin C fights oxygen radicals that damage the skin and cause premature aging and wrinkles of the skin. Vitamin C is also necessary for collagen production – the protein that provides the framework of the skin. Research has shown that vitamin C serum can improve elasticity and firmness of the skin and, more importantly, help protect the skin from damage and prevent future signs of aging.
 

Not all vitamin C products are the same. Pure L-ascorbic acid is a stable form of vitamin C that is able to penetrate into the skin and is active in the deeper layer of the skin – the dermis. Other products that claim to have vitamin C do not actually contain the active and stable form of vitamin C, L-ascorbic acid, but contain derivatives such as ascorbyl phosphate or ascorbyl palmitate which are not recognized by the body as vitamin C.
