What is Environmental Defence Matrix™?
Environmental Defence Matrix™ is a unique blend of Biosaccharide Gum-4 and 1,2-Hexanediol. This complex is a polysaccharide which forms a film over the skin or hair to protect against pollution and prevent damage caused by pollution.
Environmental Defence Matrix™ is clinically proven to protect from multiple types of environmental damage caused by free radicals, UV Rays and carbon particles.
Skin benefits of Environmental Defence Matrix™
Environmental Defence Matrix™ is an innovative multi-protective matrix that is:
Proven to shield skin from three types of environmental damage and provide over 46% protection against carbon particles (vs a placebo cream)
Proven to provide a reduction of oxidative stress (signs of ageing) by 16% in 48 hours
Proven to reduce mitochondrial toxicity by 68% in 48 hours. The mitochondria is the cells energy centre and if damaged the cell cannot function correctly

Proven to protect skin from atmospheric metals and pollutants caused by smoking by up to 95%
