Elemental Herbology Smart Screen SPF50

The numerous effects of both indoor and outdoor pollutants are on the rise and have been scientifically shown to cause significant damage to the skin. Leading skincare and spa brand Elemental Herbology is launching a broad-spectrum sun protection product available to skincare and spa professionals in time for the summer.

Based on Traditional Chinese Medicine, the Elemental Herbology Smart Screen SPF50 (50ml) is a lightweight SPF moisturiser, enriched with skin-loving vitamins including Provitamin B5 and Vitamin E, and highly protective ingredients such as Pollustop and Aquaceria to shield skin from everyday sun damage, blue light from screens and environmental pollution.

Vegan, silicone-free and fragrance-free, the highly protective formulation is part of the Fire element skincare collection and is ideal for use on all skin types as part of a client’s daily skincare routine.

Elemental Herbology’s Head of Education, Antonia David comments, “While the damaging effects of UV rays on our skin are very well documented, we are generally much less aware of the skin damage caused by exposure to environmental pollutants and blue light. Regular and frequent exposure to vehicle exhaust fumes, cigarette smoke and heavy metal emissions, as well as to the blue light emitted by our digital devices puts the skin in a state of oxidative stress, causing a breakdown of collagen, a weakened skin barrier and excess pigmentation, resulting in a dull, uneven skin tone.
