It includes a cleanser and toner to prepare the skin, products that contain arbutin, a plant based extract, which will naturally brighten and lighten your pigmentation offering a more even tone. Arbutin, is an extract from the bearberry plant and works by preventing the formation of melanin.

Heliocare®

Nothing protects your skin like Heliocare® 360 leaving your skin feeling soft & hydrated

If there is only one skin care product you would use and nothing else, then apply a good SPF cream.

To prevent photo damage to your skin you need to protect your skin from harmful UV rays. This does not mean just on sunny days but all year round from the effects of UVA, UVB and Infrared. Applying a good broad spectrum UV sun protection can easily be part of your everyday routine.

Many people get confused with the difference between UVA and UVB –

  • UVA - is ordinary everyday daylight, it travels through glass and is damaging to our skin even on cloudy days. It causes premature ageing, development of lines and wrinkles, hyperpigmentation (sun spots) and the increase in the production of free radicals which in turn causes more damage to skin cells.
  • UVB – are the rays from the sun which is associated with burning our skin.

Heliocare® and Helicocare® 360˚ are very effective. Not only do they provide all round UV protection but contain a plant extract Fernblock FC a powerful anti-oxidant combined with Vitamin C & E. There is also a repair enzyme that helps to repair the DNA in the skin cells. There are different products to suit different skin types and are suitable to apply under make up. There are tinted creams which give a nice even subtle tone during the summer months.

Heliocare® provide sun protection creams/gels for all skin types and also in collection kits -

  • SPF50 creams and gels for all skin types from sensitive to oily. Heliocare® formulations are hydrating and easily absorbed which make them suitable for layering up with other skin products and make up.
  • Illuminate Glow and Protect Collection – Foundation and protection all in one. Contains 3 Heliocare® 360 colour oil free gel, pearl, beige & bronze and a double ended contour brush. A guide on how to blend your perfect shade, highlight and contour. Suitable for skin types Fitzpatrick I-III
