At the origin of digital aging, blue light is a new form of pollution to be treated with care.

We know the old adage about taking away your cell phone at least an hour before falling asleep. While it can be complicated to apply this digital curfew to the letter&mdash;our connected lifestyles almost force us to do so&mdash;it is nevertheless vital to follow this advice. Why? The famous <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/cell-phone-blue-light-aging" target="_blank" rel="noopener">blue light</a>.
 L'OFFICIEL reveals to you the harmful effects of this new form of pollution.

By definition, blue light is high-energy visible light emitted by the sun, computer screens, tablets, smartphones, HDTVs, and even LED lighting. It is at the origin of a contemporary problem: digital pollution.

Blue light has caused a new phenomenon called digital aging. This is due to a dramatic increase in light pollution in the form of blue light&mdash;and it is extremely harmful, hampering the skin's natural maintenance and repair processes. The skin, subjected to this artificial radiation, shows signs of accelerated aging with the premature appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and other pigment spots. But also, blue light considerably increases skin stress&mdash;thereby damaging cellular (proteins, lipids, and DNA) and extra-cellular (collagen and elastin) structures.

How to protect yourself?

The latest flagship of Swiss cosmeceutical brand Nescens, the High-Power Defense Booster for the face combines the strength of two super vitamins with antioxidant properties in its ultra-concentrated formula of <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/niacinamide-skincare-ingredient-acne-anti-aging-best-products" target="_blank" rel="noopener">niacinamide</a> and dexpanthenol. This targeted serum is proving to be a powerful ally against skin damage induced by blue light, UV rays, and urban pollutants. In fact, the active ingredients contain a deliberately minimalist composition with the two active ingredients integrated at their optimal dose.
On the one hand, niacinamide fights against UV damage by protecting and repairing tissues stressed by ultraviolet radiation, while helping to maintain firm and smooth skin and reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. On the other hand, dexpanthenol, which promotes the expression of genes involved in tissue repair, participates in the reorganization of intercellular lipids and boosts the production of collagen and elastin. The dropper bottle is only 8mL, for a high-performance result.

Due to the high concentration of two active ingredients, apply the booster, morning and/or evening, alone or combined with other serums, in occasional or prolonged use. The cosmetic product is unisex and is suitable for all types of skin: exposed, dry, sensitive, with imperfections. To avoid making mistakes, consult our guide on skincare ingredients that should not be mixed with niacinamide.
