Key Ingredients: Novel micro-encapsulation technology: Organic UV filters are encapsulated in silica-based capsules, which are invisible in formulation & on the skin. Daily Defence offers a high, broad-spectrum UV protection SPF30. Encapsulated filters have a low chemical load since the encapsulation process prevents direct skin contact (encapsulated organic filters remain on top of the skin surface) resulting in a reduced dermal up-take & low allergy potential. Endonuclease: An enzyme purified from Micrococcus, encapsulated in multilamellar liposomes. Endonuclease recognizes UV damage & accelerate DNA repair. This enzyme also protects the immune system by reducing the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Imudilin: A pseudodipetide with cytokine-like activity. Stimulates the signal transduction pathway in the cells, improves the immune cells’ response & restores the immune defence. Vitamin E: Zelens uses an ester of Vitamin E & acetic acid (tocopheryl acetate). It demonstrates strong antioxidant activity. Vitamin C: Zelens uses a precursor of Vitamin C, tetra-isopalmitoyl ascorbic acid. This stable form of Vitamin C acts as a powerful antioxidant. Effectively suppresses UVB-induced skin pigmentation & helps lighten pigment spots & brightens the complexion. Stimulates collagen production. Botanical Antioxidant Complex: A proprietary botanical complex containing active molecules from 6 different plants: Shiso (Perilla frutescens), Green tea (Camellia sinensis), Centella (Centella asiatica), Ginkgo (Ginkgo biloba), Pine (Pinus Strobus) & Echinacea (Echinacea angustifolia). Botanical antioxidant complex demonstrates strong antioxidant activity to help reduce formation of hazardous free radicals & prevent oxidative damage. Not tested on animals. Paraben Free.
