Our environment is composed of many pollutants and daily our skin is most exposed to the consequences of pollution. Sometimes invisible, these pollutants will be deposited on the skin and dissolve in contact with sebum. This oxidation phenomenon alters the natural skin barrier and causes most of our dermatological problems (dull complexion, premature ageing, skin dehydration, red blotches, acne …). Gisele Delorme innovates and launches her very first moisturizing shield! Formulated in a light and melting cream texture, suitable for all skin types, it offers effective protection against the harmful effects of air pollution, UV rays, free radicals and also blue light (yes, this light emitted by our computers and laptops!).
A formula rich in active ingredients
Composed of 8 targeted and high-performance active ingredients, the moisturizing shield restores your skin’s barrier function, improves its ability to retain water and protect itself from external aggressions. But what are these miracle ingredients that allow your skin to “breathe” again and regain its softness and radiance?
Organic marshmallow roots and organic buckwheat to fight against pollution!
Air pollution, in its various forms, is harmful to the body and its effects are directly visible on our skin. Under the effect of exhaust gases, your skin loses some of its natural protection. The marshmallow root and buckwheat anti-pollution properties make it possible to limit the adhesion of polluting particles by forming an invisible film on the skin surface and thus reduce the skin’s sensitivity when facing the pollution aggressions. These ingredients help to strengthen the skin barrier while effectively fighting pollution.
Antioxidants: turmeric and vitamin E!
Under the effect of pollution, antioxidants are weakened and lipids – your skin’s barrier – lose effectiveness. Result? Faster skin ageing because skin protection cells are deficient. Turmeric and vitamin E antioxidant properties are ideal for fighting air pollution but also for protecting against oxidative stress.
Hyaluronic acid, plant sugars and vegetable glycerin to deeply moisturize!
Pollution also affects your complexion, above all carbon monoxide. This element, associated with the oxygen present in our blood, will cause a skin colour change. And yes, a greyish face is not necessarily due to fatigue but can follow an overexposure to pollutants! Irritations (dry skin, red blotches, spots) that can result from this exposure are numerous! Enriched with hyaluronic acid, plant sugars and vegetable glycerin, our moisturizing shield will deeply plump your skin by providing an immediate and long-lasting moisturizing action. Healthier, your skin breathes again and irritations disappear!
Vitamin A, a powerful anti-ageing component!
Enriched with vitamin A, our moisturizing shield smoothes the skin while boosting the synthesis of collagen. Naturally present in the body, collagen boosts the skin’s tonicity and suppleness. Collagen is essential to guarantee the skin’s strength and youth, but its production is not continuous. Oxidative stress (induced by pollution, UV exposure or even an unbalanced diet) inhibits collagen synthesis and impairs the good functioning of the skin. Vitamin A is therefore an important ally to fight against skin ageing!
SPF15 sunscreen to fight the effects of UVA/UVB
Overexposure to UV rays also causes inflammation that is responsible for premature ageing of the skin: appearance of dark spots, loss of elasticity, skin discoloration, etc. To fight the effects of these UV rays, an SPF15 sun filter has been added to our moisturizing shield.
How to apply your care?
You can apply your moisturizing shield morning and evening in circular motions from top to bottom and from the centre of the face outwards. Depending on your skin condition, the best is to apply it immediately after one of our essential serums! For even more effectiveness, our moisturizing shield can be used in addition to the vitaminic complex. Your skin is instantly soothed, radiant and protected from external aggressions! So, ready to test your first anti-pollution shield?
Its bonus? Our moisturizing shield contains no paraben, no PEG, no silicone, no mineral oil, no alcohol –a criticized sunscreen-, no ingredient derived from animal and is certified gluten-free!
