Soins Soleil Cellu-Guard™ Luxury Suncare Collection From Sothys
Paris® Offers High-Tech, Triple-Cellular Sun Protection
MIAMI-A lack of effective sun protection products and
a fear of the sun's increasingly expanding list of harmful effects has
made us prisoners in our homes, offices and cars. Even the "reckless"
few who can't resist its gloriousness wouldn't consider venturing out
without a high protection SPF, a wide-brimmed hat, polarized wrap-around
sunglasses and a pareo-at the very least.
This January, SOTHYS PARIS, the global professional skincare
leader, will take sun protection into the future with Soins Soleil Cellu-Guard™,
the most advanced and comprehensive luxury suncare system available.
Enhanced with the latest generation of optimized UVB-UVA
filters and the breakthrough Cellu-Guard Complex™-an exclusive
blend of fruit polyphenols and highly purified Calophyllum Oil-these
high-tech formulas prevent and repair cellular and tissue damage caused
by the sun, while blanketing the skin in soothing hydration.
"Cellu-Guard Complex™ is a completely advanced
blend that offers triple-cell and dual-tissue protection from the sun's
damaging UVA and UVB rays," said Christian Garces, President of
Sothys U.S.A. "On a cellular level, the complex protects the DNA
from damage that can lead to premature ageing or even skin cancer. On
the surface of the skin, our complex aids sun-exposed skin by preventing
irritation and helping retain the skin's firmness."
Sun Damage: Beyond Skin Deep
To understand the remarkable protection Soins Soleil Cellu-uard™provides,
a little should be understood about the damaging effects of the sun's
UVB and UVA rays. When the skin is first exposed to sun the initial
reaction is a sensation of warmth and well-being, however, solar radiation
goes beyond the surface to trigger chemical changes in within the skin's
internal layers that can lead to:
-
The appearance of wrinkles and loss of elasticity:
UVA radiation decreases the number of fibroblasts in the dermis and
also leads to a release of enzymes that cause the degradation of the
skin's elastin and collagen fibers.
-
Increased roughness: UVB damage causes cellular DNA
damage, resulting in sunburn and later cell death. This cell death
disturbs keritinization (the skin's natural shedding process) presented
in the form of retarded desquamation (peeling) .
-
Hyperpigmentation or de-pigmentation: Occurs due to
a disorganization of the skin's melancocytes and their functioning.
-
Benign or malignant tumors: UVA radiation brings free
radicals to the interior of the cells and causes damage to cellular
DNA, proteins and lipids.
-
A reduction of immune defenses: UVA and UVB are responsible
for the reduction, change and decreased rate of activity of the Langerhans
cells. Over the long term the result is a weakening of the essential
immune defenses whose job encounters the efficient elimination of
cancerous cells.
Cellu-Guard Complex™
The technological cornerstone of the entire, Soins Soleil Cellu-Guard™
system, Cellu-Guard Complex™ offers triple triple-cellular skin
protection against the sun by:
-
Protecting the membranes of the skin's cells
-
Preserving the skin's cytoplasmic proteins-the building
blocks of all fibrous tissues in the body
-
Protecting the DNA structure of the skin's cells
On the surface, Cellu-Guard Complex™:
The SOTHYS PARIS' Soins Soleil Cellu-Guard™ collection,
includes a complete suncare system that:

Sun Preparation Care: This special blend of Cellu-Guard
Complex™ and extracts of White Lupine, White Willow and Sweet

by: helping restructure and thicken the skin's outer most layer, limiting
moisture loss, increasing cellular resistance to free radical attacks,
preventing the formation of sunburn cells, limiting inflammation,
accelerating the development of the skin's natural pigmentation and
reinforcing the photoprotective reactors within the skin. This light,
silky formula is most effective when used three weeks prior to sun
exposure.
