Preferably as soon as possible after sun exposure and once or twice daily thereafter.
Features
- An innovative, after-sun moisturizing gel containing the Cellex-C Patented Complex, plus anti-inflammatory phyto-chemicals. Synergistically, these ingredients have a visible anti-aging effect on sun-challenged skin. Perfect anti-aging formulation après ski, tennis and golf.
- Contains the optimal concentration of the patented L-ascorbic acid (vitamin C) complex necessary to work on the damaging effects caused by the sun. This vital vitamin acts as a key anti-oxidant to combat sun-induced free radicals and is also essential for collagen production to maintain elastic, firm, smooth skin.
- Contains grape seed extract—a rich source of proanthocyanidins—credited with the ability to support the microvascular health of the skin by protecting cells within capillaries from free radical damage.
- Contains glycine—an important amino acid building block essential for the formation of glutathione which plays an important part in the skin’s natural anti-oxidant defense system.
- Contains green tea extract. This powerful anti-oxidant helps combat the free-radical damage induced by sun exposure.
- Contains peppermint. An excellent anti-inflammatory to help reduce redness while the menthol constituent produces a soothing, cooling effect on the skin.
- Contains hyaluronic acid. Provides exceptional water binding properties to help alleviate the peeling associated with flaking, sun-burned skin.
Benefits
- High levels of L-ascorbic acid, coupled with powerful anti-oxidant protection make this formulation the most important skin-saving product to apply after excessive sun exposure sustained through sports and other out-door activities.
- Helps to prevent the leathered, blotchy appearance of skin so often associated with golfers, tennis players, sun worshippers and those living in tropical climates.
- Sun Rescue Gel is suitable for both men and women.
Directions
- As soon as possible after sun exposure, apply an even film of Sun Rescue Gel to the exposed areas of your skin. May be applied to mildly sun-reddened skin to achieve soothing, cooling relief. Do not apply to swollen, broken, blistered or very red skin.
- You should notice a pleasant cooling and tingling effect. If your skin is slightly sunburned, the redness should subside within 2–3 hours. When used as directed, the powerful anti-oxidants and phyto-botanical constituents will help control many of the visibly aging and damaging effects of excess sun-exposure.
