Sun protection in winter; switch to Anthelios from La Roche Posay



SUN PROTECTION IN WINTER

La Roche Posay’s Anthelios offers ultimate shield against sun damage

Bengaluru, November 10th, 2016 - Just as winter steps in, we tend to believe that our skin is safe from the harmful ultraviolet rays. However, don’t get misled by dropping temperatures. The sun's harmful rays are just as strong and damaging despite what the weatherman says. Even though UVB radiation reduces during winter, long UVA rays are still in full force. UVA forms the majority of UV light and contributes to skin ageing, hyperpigmentation and the development of skin cancer as it penetrates deeper into the skin. It has a consistent intensity throughout the day, all year round and can penetrate through cloud and glass.

Therefore, even during winter, sun protection should be practiced as cloud does not stop the penetration of UVA light. While UVA causes premature wrinkles, pigmentation disorders, sunspots, immediate darkening of the pre-formed melanin, UVB rays are a cause of sunburns and tanning A broad-spectrum sunscreen (UVA + UVB) therefore is a must for protecting the skin from not only cancer and allergies but also ageing and pigmentation.

Another very important factor causing havoc on our skin is Pollution. While we all are aware about the depleting ozone layer caused by pollution, few are aware of its effect on skin health. Depleting ozone layer leads to increased sun exposure which causes collagen breakdown in the skin and increased free radical particles to exist in the atmosphere. These free radical particles injure and damage your skin cells, which in turn leads to sensitization and premature ageing. Thus, it becomes extremely crucial to wear a sunscreen all-round the year.

La Roche-Posay’s Anthelios range, derived from the Greek “anti- helios” (against the sun) combine dermatologically proven UVA-UVB and long UVA rays protection which together are responsible for 80% of the signs of premature ageing. These UV filters are enriched with the natural soothing and antioxidant properties of La Roche-Posay Thermal Spring Water to offer sensitive and sun-allergic skins respite from the powerful rays of sun exposure.
