We all see the label – “Broad Spectrum Sunblock/Sun protection” in many of the sunblock creams/lotions in the market. But do you know that Infrared and Visible light can likewise harm the skin and accelerate the skin aging process?

Heliocare® 360° BioShield System of Fractional Biomimetic Melanin and Pro-Taurine provide additional advanced biological protection against high energy visible light and Infrared‐A radiation. The BioShield System absorbs high‐energy visible light at the skin’s surface and helps neutralise the action of infrared-A within the skin.

HOW AND WHY DO ACNE/PIMPLES FORM?
Our skin is covered in hair follicles. In a healthy hair follicle the sebaceous gland produces a small amount of sebum, which moves up to the surface of the skin where it acts as a waterproofing agent. The opening of the follicle is wide making it easy for the sebum to exit the follicle.
Acne are caused when the opening to the hair follicle is blocked, closing off oxygen and allowing the sebum to stagnate. This is the early stage of acne known as a comedone.
This environment allows rapid growth of Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes), the bacteria that leads to acne. At this point the hair follicle becomes inflamed and red and forms pus.
There are several factors than can contribute to cause of Acne:
– Hair follicles can become blocked by excessive sebum on the skin and an accumulation of dead skin cells
– Some cosmetic products can block hair follicles
– Hormones can cause an increased production of sebum and an accumulation of dead skin cells at the follicle opening.
In order to effectively fight acne, each stage of the acne development process needs to be tackled.

We usually have treatments for facial pimples/acne, but we seldom have treatments for our chest and back acne. We don’t believe if you don’t see it, it doesn’t matter. Acne on the chest and back is very common. Men, and especially young adults won’t take their t-shirts off in public situations, or permanently wear vests, or women who refuse to wear low cut or even normal cut tops and wear stifling high necked one piece swimming costumes, just because they have disfiguring acne and blemishes on their chest and back.
Now, there is a new and convenient way to take care of our chest and back acne – Aknicare™ Chest and Back. It’s so easy to apply, just spray on the problem areas on your back and chest!
Aknicare™ Chest and Back is a unique combination of 3 key ingredients which target all the causes of back acne in a pump spray presentation. The 3 ingredients have been proven to reduce inflamed and non-inflamed spots and blackheads after weeks of use.
Aknicare™ Chest and Back works faster than conventional treatments such as antibiotics and doesn’t cause resistance
Aknicare™ Chest and Back works faster than benzoyl peroxide and doesn’t have the worrying side effects such as extreme drying of the skin and dark spots/hyperpigmentation.
Clinical studies published in the British Journal of Dermatology show less new spots emerged each week of use and old spots disappeared quickly. Oil production rates were reduced by up to 68% with an average of 53%.
The key ingredients of Triethyl citrate, Ethyl linoleate and GT peptide-10 work synergistically to transform acne skin to clear skin. These ingredients are supported by salicylic acid and calming ingredients along with products to maintain barrier function and to prevent skin drying.
