Technical Details & Test Data

Mechanism of Action

BlueShield® protects the skin from the 2 major damaging effects of blue light, namely photo oxidation and photoreceptor disruption.
In practice:

1. Thanks to its high antioxidant capacity, BlueShield® specifically protects cellular DNA and collagen from oxidation and degradation.

2. Thanks to its super-protective filtering power, BlueShield® protects skin photoreceptors (opsins) from stress.

By preserving the vital functions of the skin in relation to DNA, the ExtraCellular Matrix and phototransduction, a mechanism that controls, among other things, pigmentation and circadian rhythms, BLUESHIELD® helps prevent and correct digital pollution-induced aging.
