IBR-TCLC®  - UVA and UVB absorbance and damage prevention

AND 

PhytoCellTec™ Alp Rose -  Protection against skin protein oxidation and 
Restoration of skin’s resilience

IBR-TCLC®

UV is capable of creating damage mainly in 2 different ways:

UVB - direct DNA damage

and

UVA - indirectly through the production of free radicals

There has been a lot of speculation of recent about protection (or lack of protection) in  traditional sunscreens, mainly around the protection of the damaging UVA.

IBR-TCLC® contain colourless carotenoids (phytoene and phytofluene), and has been shown to protect against both UVA and UVB. 

These are not your traditional sunscreens, however they do protect against the harmful UV damage. How you ask?

1) phytoene and phytofluene are most effective in quenching free radicals

2) phytoene and phytofluene protect the DNA from being damaged by free radicals

3) phytofluene absorbs light in the UVA range reducing the energy of the light from shorter to longer less damaging wavelengths

4) phytoene and phytofluene are found to be excellent anti inflammatory agents

5) phytoene and phytofluene are able to reduce the downstream effect of the  UV light of collagen degradation promoting a more youthful skin 

6) phytoene and phytofluene protect against de-pigmentation creating a brighter, even toned surface

During clinical trials using IBR-TCLC®, the below was recorded: 

• Wrinkle count reduction effect: 43 % wrinkle count reduction

• Wrinkle volume reduction effect: 13 % wrinkle volume reduction 

• Wrinkle length: 14 % wrinkle length reduction

• Strongly increases skin firmness: 19 %

• Strongly increases skin elasticity 23 % to 29 % increase
