SUN TOUCH

Sunlight is essential for our physical and mental health but overexposure or inappropriate exposure may cause irreparable damage and hasten premature ageing.

FR~HAUT Cosmetics, within its line of Sun Touch, has designed broad-spectrum UVA/UVB filters that ensure that skin is cared and protected from both the short and long term harmful effects caused by solar radiation.

Its beta-carotene fortified formula, which also contains carrot oil, vitamin C and aloe vera, makes this compound the perfect ally for sensitive skins that cannot take any risk when tanning.

MORE INFO

Sunrays, also known as ultraviolet rays (UV), are invisible to the human eye. Depending on their wavelength, they may be classified as UVA, UVB and UVC; protecting against them is essential.

Sun Touch enhances the positive effects of the sun (tanning, wellbeing, synthesis of vitamins…) and blocks its negative effects (overexposure to UVA and UVB radiation, dehydration, reddening...).

IMPORTANT WARNINGS:
• Apply a generous and adequate amount of protection 30 minutes before sun exposure.
• Try to avoid the sun during midday.
• Do not exposure babies or toddlers directly to the sun.
• Even the solar products with the highest filters do not offer a total protection against UVA radiation.
• The fewer product you use, the lower the protection level will be.
• To get a correct tanning, start with a few minutes and increase progressively the daily exposure time.

Main Active Substances:

1. Vitamin C (ascorbyl palmilate):
• A powerful antioxidant that protects skin from the free radicals formed by UVB rays.
• It may even improve the appearance of photoaged skin that continues to be overexposed to the sun as it increases elasticity by increasing collagen formation (sun lovers).
• Prevents hyperpigmentation and spots.

2. Riboflavin (vitamin B2):
• A lack of it when skin is suffering the aggression of external factors leads to overproduction of sebum.
• It belongs to the category of active substances that regulate the sebaceous gland and hydrate.
• It also contributes to enhancing suntan.

3. Aloe vera:
• The regenerative, hydrating and soothing properties of this extract are well known. This action is all the more important in skins suffering from overexposure to the sun.
• It is therefore an essential ingredient in Sun Touch solar sun screens.

4. Wheat germ oil:
• This oil has highly antioxidant and nourishing properties. It is therefore suitable for damaged, mature skins as it gives skin elasticity and nourishment.

5. Vitamin E:
• From carrot oil.
• Prevents free radicals and the damages to the skin caused by the sun.
• Increases hydration and regeneration.

6.Pentavitin:
• A very efficient moisturizing factor.
• Contains carbohydrates that attract humidity to the skin as it was a magnet.
• Thanks to its linking properties, it not only hydrates better and longer but it retains water in the skin.

7.Hydroviton 24:
• Synergic mixture of NMF (natural moisturizing factors) related to the skin’s hydrolipidic film with regenerative and protective properties.

8.Vegeseryl™ (soy protein):
• Rich in isoflavones, this substance is similar to estrogen. It mitigates the abrupt changes in the skin at the time of menopause.
• Topically applied isoflavones can improve the levels of skin elasticity and hydration in a number of ways:
- As an antioxidant
- As an anti-dehydrating agent
- Contributing to collagen formation

9. Grape seed oil:
• Rich in tannins and polyphenols.
• It has great antioxidant, regenerative and elastifying action on the skin, particularly in aged skins.

10. Butyl Methoxy-dibenzoylmethane:
• UVA filter
• Absorbs ultraviolet A radiation

11.Titanium dioxide:
• UVA filter
• Soothes inflammations
• Absorbs ultraviolet A and B radiation

12. 4-Methylbenzylidene camphor:
• UVB filter
• Absorbs UVB radiation

13. Benzophenone-3:
• UVA and UVB filter
• Absorbs UVA and UVB radiation

14. Ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate:
• UVB filter
• Absorbs UVB radiation

15. Etylhexyl salicylate:
• UVA and UVB filter
• Absorbs UVA and UVB radiation

16. Peregen:
• Complex of natural peptides with soothing and anti-irritant action. It also inhibits free radicals that are responsible for early ageing.

17. Argan oil:
• Argan oil is sourced after the argan fruits have been dried in the sun (Argania spinosa).
• Because of this natural process, the oil is known as “the desert gold”, thanks to its colour and many properties too.
• As it has a great amount of essential fatty acids, vitamin E, beta-carotenoids, squalene, phytosterols and gamma-tocopherol, it can reduce and prevent the appearance of wrinkles, and it can also give the nutrients needed to maintain young tissues.
• The skin will look softer, more uniform and luminous.
