City Guard Anti-Pollution Day Cream SPF 50
- Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate (Vitamin C fat soluble derivative) in stabilized and encapsuled form. Stabilized form has more extensive antioxidant action, penetrates more efficiently, does not irritate skin and -unlike traditional Vitamin C- does not oxidize, thus pertaining its full effectiveness. The encapsuled form (cellulose polymers encapsuled with lipophilic oils) allows gradual release, thus rendering the ingredient bioavailable for much longer than the time of its application and therefore providing larger duration in its effect.
- Anti-Pollution Complex, with osmolytes and aminoacids that protect skin from oxidative stress, contribute to its detox and improve the epidermal barrier.
- PatchH2O -Natural biopolymers molecular complex, that controllably transfers the hydrating actives to the lower layers of the epidermis, thus ensuring in depth and intensive hydration.

- Mineral Sunscreen Filters – Inorganic compounds of mineral origin, such as titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, that reflect & diffuse UV rays like miniscule mirrors, preventing them from penetrating into the deeper layers of the skin.
