HOW IT WORKS:
A hectic urban life exposes the skin to many external agressors (Pollution, Uvs, Dust...), increasing wrinkles and pigmentation by 35%. Morevoer, cells are more damaged at the surface of the skin, making it dull and uneven. Airthin UV Defender was developped to protect the skin from urban aggressors for a youtful looking skin.The association of UVA & UVB filters protect the skin while the synergy of Nature & Science helps to repair sun-exposed skin.
The optimal daily dose of citrus peel from Morocco removes damaged cells and detoxifies skin. 100% Pure Niacinamide helps to boost cell respiration process to stimulate the production of skin essential components.
TEXTURE

8 times thinner than a classic UV base*, this reverse emulsion is more sensorial, more pleasant than a classic emulsion. It is mixed with ultre fine powders for a very light and soft finish on skin.
This 'air-thin' formula is a perfect makeup base that improves skin tone and reduce imperfections. Makeup is more easy to apply and is more fit during the day.
SHAKE WELL BEFORE USE.
