HOW DOES IT WORK?

The Janesce Suncare Lotion is an amazing product and would have to be one of our favorites in this beautiful
skincare range.

UV is a source of free radicals that damage our skin, prematurely ageing it and causing all sorts of imperfections. However, like all free radicals they are able to be neutralized by antioxidants and this is how the Janesce Suncare Lotion works. Rich in beta-carotene and vitamin C, this product saturates the upper layers of our skin with these powerful antioxidants, a process that takes 7 to 10 days. Over this time the antioxidants it contains are stored in the tiny spaces between the layers of the skin cells in the outer most stratum of the skin. The stratum contains between 20 to 30 layers of cells and each layer becomes an antioxidant-filled barrier, capable of reducing the negative effects of the sun and greatly improving our skin’s ability to cope.

All this activity is cumulative and it takes 7 to 10 days for the skin to be fully prepared. Because the SPF rating used in other chemical barriers must offer immediate protections, the SPF rating system does not work well for the Janesce Suncare Lotion. However, recent testing shows that even with only one applications of the Janesce Suncare Lotion, you are afforded a protection of SPF15. Because of its cumulative effect, we can only assume that level increases with every application over the following 10 days but w don’t have any testing to prove this, just anecdotal evidence. With the Suncare Lotion your skin is in a constant state of protection provided it is used daily.

Another thing we love about this product is that, unlike conventional sunscreens, it does not interfere with the natural protective mechanisms your skin already has in place to protect itself. One of these mechanisms is the production of melanin; a dark pigment that forms a tan, the Janesce Suncare Lotion won’t suppress this process because it is an important part of your natural sun resilience. The Janesce Suncare Lotion also allows our skin to keep producing vitamin D unlike many sun blocks available on the market.

We believe the Janesce Suncare Lotion is a ‘must have’ product all year round as it offers a completely different, non-chemical approach to sun protection that also allows the skin to carry on it’s normal functioning. If you are going to be exposed to high levels of UV radiation, by all means boost your protection by adding a chemical sun block but for most days of normal sun exposure, the Suncare Lotion is enough. But remember, it must be used everyday to be effective because everyday you skip will have repercussions 7 to 10 days later.
