Block the sun, not the fun with Kojie•san

-

We all dread the signs of aging, but most of us don’t make an effort to be kind to our skin especially during summer.

A variety of factors can cause premature aging, but the biggest culprit is sun exposure. The sun’s ultraviole­t rays break down collagen and elastin, making the skin rough and uneven. These rays also affect the melanyocyt­es, which effect the skin’s pigmentati­on.

And when your skin ages prematurel­y due to unprotecte­d sun exposure, you can get wrinkles, brown spots and even skin cancer.

To prevent this, you should stay out of the sun during the middle of the day when it’s rays are strongest, wear protective clothing and use a broad-spectrum sunscreen — SPF 30 or higher — which protects you both from UVA and UVB rays.

Kojie•san Sunblock is the only sun care brand in the Philippine­s with Sunactyl, which helps relieve and repair skin from sun damage caused by sun exposure.

Sunactyl protects the skin against UVA and UVB damage to the glutathion­e system. It also fights UVstress and heat-stress.

The products include Kojie•san Sunblock SPF 69 PA+++; Kojie•san Sunblock Face SPF 50 PA+++; Kojie•san Sunscreen SPF 55 PA+++ with Lightening; Kojie•san Sunblock Sport SPF 50 PA+++; Kojie•san Before Sunspray SPF 50; Kojie•san After Sunspray and Kojie•san Kids SPF 30 and SPF 50.

All Kojie•san Sunblock products have broad-spectrum protection against harmful UVA and UVB rays to prevent sunburn and premature skin aging.

So don’t be afraid to go out in the sun and enjoy the beach and indulge in other outdoor activities. Just make sure to slather on your Kojie•san Sunblock.
