Defend Your Skin This Winter

An SPF is as important in the Winter as it is at all seasons, if not more so. Try to think of the 'S' in SPF as 'skin' protection, rather than ‘Sun’ protection. Our Daily DNA Defence will protect your skin from all elements that winter weather brings. Cold temperatures, wind, rain and snow. Whether you are walking the dog, cycling, swimming or skiing your skin needs protection.

How does cold weather affect the skin?

Think of it like this, in winter we layer our clothes. Underwear, day wear and outdoor clothes. The skin on our face has no protection. It is exposed. Therefore, if we don’t layer our skin care too, untold damage is occurring. It will appear as dehydration, dryness and sensitivity, initially. If unprotected, over time it will lead to broken capillaries, pigmentation, open pores and slackness of skin in later life.

Even if you are nice and cosy at home, or in a central heated office, your skin is still under attack. Central heating is full of pollutants. These pollutants attack and damage healthy skin cells - a major factor of premature ageing. Daily DNA Defence contains powerful antioxidants which will defend and repair your skins defence mechanisms. This prevents skin cells from dying (reactive oxidative stress).

What is blue light protection?

The more time we spend inside, due to shorter daylight hours and bad weather conditions, means the more exposure to High Energy Violet light (blue light) we have. Blue light is emitted from TVs, computers and smart devices. Research shows that skin is ageing quicker in generations who use smart technology, compared to those before us that didn’t have it. If you are exposed to HEVL (i.e. in front of a computer, phone or smart TV) for 8 hours a day, the skin damage is said to be equivalent to being in the midday sun for 10 minutes without protection. If you times this by 5 days per week and then 4 weeks per month – it is equivalent to being out in the sun for nearly half a day without protection!

UV protection

If you're lucky enough to be heading off for some winter sun, Daily DNA Defence will give you protection. It will protect against UVA (ageing rays), UVB (burning rays), blue light and pollution. It will also help prevent and repair damage caused by sun exposure. (ie Pigmentation, capillary damage, dehydration, dryness etc). Our Daily DNA Defence contains ingredients that will repair your skins DNA a hundred times faster than your own skin can. Using Daily DNA Defence on holiday is a must. For best results, your 1st application should be 15 minutes prior to sun exposure, then 15 minutes later apply a second layer. Then thereafter every 2 hours. Increase application if swimming or perspiring. UV protection will also apply if you are skiing. You will have UV from the sun as well as the reflection and glare from the snow. A handy pocket size bottle means that you can take Daily DNA anywhere.

The perfect primer

For those of you who need any more convincing to try this Multi-Tasking product, it will also work as the best make-up primer you will ever use. Weightless, non-oily and no residue means it will keep your make-up on all day long.

So ladies, don’t wait for the signs of time to catch up with you. Daily DNA Defence will allow you to live life to the fullest, regardless of sun or snow.

Defend your skin today, for better skin for life.

As the cold months roll in it's easy to think SPF can take a backseat in your skincare routine. But Daily DNA Defence SPF30 is much more than just a sunscreen, it’s your final coat of skin armour, it’s weather protection for your skin.

Our award-winning, broad-spectrum SPF protects your skin from more than just UV rays. It guards against environmental pollutants and blue light
emitted from your screens. Meanwhile, winter’s cold air, winds and rain can damage your skin barrier.

 During and after exposure to the elements, Daily DNA Defence protects and repairs your cells DNA.

And more than this, it’s the best make-up primer. Talk about a multi-tasking product! Its lightweight formula sits comfortably under your foundation, ensuring your make-up stays fresh and stays ‘put’ all day.

Keep reading as we deep dive into the benefits of Daily DNA Defence SPF30 and why it’s an essential part of your winter skincare regime.

Broad-spectrum, photostable protection with Daily DNA Defence SPF30

Not all SPF products are created equal, Daily DNA Defence SPF30 offers broad-spectrum protection. This means that it shields your skin from both UVA rays (the ones that age your skin) and UVB rays (the ones that burn your skin). If your moisturiser or foundation contains an SPF it’s worth checking, make sure you’re covered for both UVA and UVB. Many of those products only protect against UVB, leaving your skin vulnerable to the long-term damage caused by UVA rays.

I’m guessing that you follow your daily skincare regime to promote skin health and to keep your skin looking great for your age? Using Daily DNA Defence SPF30 will help you avoid undoing all that effort by providing the UVA protection your skin truly needs.

And here's the bonus: our SPF is photostable, meaning it won’t break down or lose effectiveness in the sun. However, if you're by the pool make sure to reapply every two hours as water, sweat and towel drying can remove it, leaving your skin vulnerable.

Blue light and pollution protection

In today’s world, your skin is up against more than just the sun. Daily DNA Defence SPF30 also shields your skin from two often overlooked threats: blue light and pollution.

Blue light, mainly from our smart devices and pollution in the atmosphere. Blue light and pollution trigger changes in your skin cells, even leading to cell death. Unprotected exposure to these will lead to hyperpigmentation and can damage your skin’s health.  Most blue light comes from smart technology, which is used daily by most of us. Pollution is all around; levels are higher in towns and cities all year.

DNA Defence and Repair: protecting your skin at the cellular level

When your skin is exposed to radiation it faces more than just surface damage, your cells DNA is at risk. Daily DNA Defence SPF30 acts like a "virtual parasol," shielding your cells during exposure to harmful rays. But the protection doesn’t stop there. After exposure, your body naturally works to repair DNA damage. Your cells naturally produce an enzyme which kickstarts the repair process of your DNA. Thanks to the powerful repairing ingredients in our formula this process is accelerated up to 100 times, meaning your skin recovers faster, stays healthier and sustains less long term damage.

 In summary, wear Daily DNA Defence SPF30 as your final coat of skin armour each day in all seasons and you can rest assured you’re doing your best to protect your skin.

Magical make-up priming

We know that finding the perfect daily SPF texture is a challenge. We’ve been there too. Most SPFs feel like a layer too many, leaving skin feeling greasy, heavy or cause foundation to slide off by midday. This is why we made our product for you. A super light veil, which is suitable for even the most sensitive skin. With no oily or white residue, it’s non-pore blocking and
dries over your moisturiser to become the best make-up primer you’ll ever use, keeping your foundation perfectly in place all day or all night long. 

No make-up, no problem

For our men and/or non make-up wearers, our handy pocket size product gives you the same invisible veil and matt skin finish. Skiers, golfers and cyclists will love that it slips easily into a pocket, bag or pouch. 

Where else should you be applying your SPF?

Your SPF isn’t just for your face, use all the way down to your décollete and up to your hairline. Not forgetting areas like the tops of your lips, ears, nose and the backs of your hands. These are often overlooked spots that are equally exposed to the sun, whether you’re lounging by the pool or simply driving. The backs of your hands are quick to show signs of ageing, so it’s vital to keep them protected. And if you’re grabbing some winter sun make sure to apply it to the tops of your feet.

How much SPF should you use?

Aim for about the size of a 5 pence piece for each application. However, this should come after Step 2 – Skin Boost and Step 3 – Skin Defence Cream in your skincare routine. If you're planning to sunbathe, apply Daily DNA Defence SPF30 at least 15 minutes before heading outside. Once you're in the sun reapply after 15 minutes for the ultimate protection, then continue every two hours.

And remember, swimming, sweating or towel drying can remove your SPF, so be sure to reapply regularly to keep your skin fully protected.
