EDELWEISS
Edelweiss extract grows on Alpine mountains and has been shown in trials to extend skin cell life and help fight cell damage induced by UV rays. Its potent sun protection power comes from powerful antioxidants that the plant evolved to withstand sun exposure at high altitudes.
GREEN TEA
Green Tea is a rich source of Catechins which counteract skin-ageing free radicals. This antioxidant-rich extract also inhibits the activity of enzymes responsible for breaking down collagen reserves and causing skin to sag.
HOW SUN DAMAGE HARMS THE HANDS
While all skin will naturally age, the skin on the hands can age much faster than other areas of the body because it is most exposed to ageing UVA sun rays. Skin produces melanin pigment deep in the skin to protect itself against ageing UVA sun rays but as the skin gets older and thinner, this pigment rises to the surface and emerges as sunspots.
Melanin sunspots are usually permanent, but you can help to prevent their development by applying sun protection to the hands every day.
A SUMMER ESSENTIAL FOR ALL SKIN TYPES
Scent-free, non-greasy and quickly absorbed, Green People’s Edelweiss & Green Tea Hand Guard SPF30 provides all skin types with an advantage over age spots and is a summer essential for gardeners and those that work outside or near glass windows.
