The Importance of UV and Pollution Protection in Skincare

We sat down with Mateja Weber, Romilly Wilde Lead Scientist to get her expert view on the perfect skincare routine to combat UV and pollution.

By Susie Willis

In today's world, our skin is under constant attack from environmental stressors like UV rays and pollution. These aggressors not only accelerate the ageing process but can also lead to various skin issues, including pigmentation, inflammation and even cause spots.

We sat down with Mateja Weber, Romilly Wilde Lead Scientist to get her expert view on the perfect skincare routine to combat UV, pollution and help keep acne at bay. "Environmental stress such as UV and outdoor pollution are a relentless assault on our skin. For those with acne prone skin, UV rays and pollution can make matters worse. External stressors have an effect on the skin barrier, triggering inflammation, skin dryness and pigmentation. The drying effect of the sun can prompt increased oil production and a build-up of dead cells, essentially contributing to the formation of clogged pores and spots."

This restorative oil combines biotech and natural ingredients that promote skin regeneration and aim to visibly firm the complexion.

SPF 50 GlowScreen Oil Formulated For Acne

Your game changing SPF: Klarskin’s SPF 50 GlowScreen Oil

When it comes to UV protection, Klarskin's new SPF 50 GlowScreen Oil is a game-changer and formulated for acne prone skin. This organic cold-pressed oil offers robust protection against UVA, UVB, and even the insidious blue light. As Mateja Weber explains, "UV rays and blue light can wreak havoc on the skin. They cause cellular oxidation, fine lines and pigmentation. A high SPF product like this is essential to ward off these damaging effects."

But Klarskin's SPF isn't just about UV protection. It's a multi-tasking wonder that also helps rebalance oil levels and dissolve excess sebum, making it ideal for acne prone skin. It aids in building the lipid barrier, a crucial layer that shields the skin from external threats. As Weber notes, "The lipid barrier is your skin's knight in shining armour. It prevents moisture loss and keeps pollutants at bay."
