Protecting your skin from the sun's harmful rays is essential for maintaining healthy, youthful skin.

Wearing a moisturiser with SPF 30 is a simple and effective way to safeguard your skin against the damaging effects of the sun, including wrinkles, sunburn and ultimately skin cancer.

But did you know that there are also many additional benefits to using a moisturiser with SPF 30 that go beyond sun protection?

In this blog, we will explore the difference between intrinsic and extrinsic ageing factors and highlight 10 scientifically proven benefits of natural ingredients such as micronised titanium and Rhatany root, which are found in Kalōnology's Pro Age Marine Day Cream SPF 30.

Intrinsic vs. Extrinsic Ageing Factors

Before discussing the benefits of using a moisturiser with SPF 30, it's essential to understand the difference between intrinsic and extrinsic ageing factors.

Intrinsic ageing is the natural ageing process that occurs over time due to genetics and the normal wear and tear on the body's systems.

Extrinsic ageing, on the other hand, is caused by external factors, such as sun exposure, pollution, and lifestyle habits, such as smoking and poor nutrition.

Extrinsic ageing is responsible for up to 90% of the visible signs of ageing, including fine lines, wrinkles, age spots and uneven skin texture.

10 Benefits of Natural Ingredients in Kalōnology's Pro Age Marine Day Cream SPF 30

1. Protection Against UV Damage: The primary benefit of wearing a moisturiser with SPF 30 is to protect the skin from harmful UV rays. The combination of Micronised Titanium and Rhatany Root in Kalōnology's Pro Age Marine Day Cream SPF 30 provides broad-spectrum defence against both UVA and UVB rays, reducing the risk of skin cancer and premature ageing.

2. Reducing Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Rhatany Root has been shown to have remarkable UV-extinction properties, especially against UV-B light exposure. It also contains tannins, which have astringent properties that help tighten and firm the skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

3. Improving Skin Texture: Hyaluronic acid and Sodium PCA in Kalōnology's Pro Age Marine Day Cream SPF 30 provide active moisturisation, helping to hydrate and plump the skin, improving its texture and reducing the appearance of rough, dry patches.

4. Enhancing Skin Elasticity: Vitamin E is a potent antioxidant that helps protect the skin from free radical damage and enhances skin elasticity, making it look more youthful and supple.

5. Reducing Inflammation: Inflammation is a key contributor to skin ageing. Kalōnology's Pro Age Marine Day Cream SPF 30 contains powerful anti-inflammatory ingredients such as Pycnogenol, which can help reduce inflammation and soothe irritated skin.

6. Protecting Against Environmental Stressors: Marine botanical extracts in Kalōnology's Pro Age Marine Day Cream SPF 30 have been shown to have protective and restorative properties against environmental stressors such as pollution and harsh weather conditions.

7. Reducing Age Spots: Vitamin A is a potent antioxidant that can help reduce the appearance of age spots, sun damage, and hyperpigmentation.

8. Increasing Skin Hydration: Hyaluronic acid and Sodium PCA in Kalōnology's Pro Age Marine Day Cream SPF 30 can help increase skin hydration levels, making it look more plump and healthy.

9. Boosting Collagen Production: Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that helps stimulate collagen production, which can improve skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

10. Improving Skin Tone: Marine botanical extracts in Kalōnology's Pro Age Marine Day Cream SPF 30 have been shown to have skin-brightening properties, which can help even out skin tone and improve its overall appearance.
