Lipotec has developed Pollushield functional ingredient through Aimtec peptides and synthetic molecules, and the new ingredient has been created in response to increased concerns of consumers about pollution and its effects on the skin
Pollushield functional ingredient provides a barrier between the skin and pollutants as well as a boost to the antioxidative defence of the skin. This active offers two complementary effects: binding of toxic metals by a polymer with metal chelating properties to prevent their interaction with the skin as well as a strong antioxidative action by a potent free radical scavenger to avoid oxidative damage within the skin.
