La Roche-Posay’s innovative sun protection products, created using Intelimer technology – “smart polymers” – have appeared in the Anthelios line. So far nothing is clear? A little patience – we’ll figure it out.
Intelimer technology: what is it?
For us (at least at Healthy-Food), the perfect sunscreen should not only do its job flawlessly, but also:
have a weightless texture;
easy and evenly applied, not felt on the face;
do not clog pores, do not provoke shine and acne;
suitable for sensitive skin;
do not leave whitish spots;
be resistant to sweat and water if it is a body sunscreen;
have an unobtrusive odor.
In other words, sunscreen should be pleasant to use without sacrificing its protective properties. It is clear that consumer appetites are growing, but technology does not stand still.
The latest example is the La Roche-Posay line, created using Intelimer technology – the same “smart polymers”.
These are two-phase emulsions based on water and oil, in which sun protection filters are integrated. “Smart polymers” form a shell in the form of microcrystals around the oil droplets.
Result:
sun filters are evenly distributed over the skin in a thin layer;
such protection is more stable, and after application there is no greasy film left.
All Anthelios products, including those with Intelimer Technology, offer high SPF and PPD levels, provide superior UVB and UVA protection, and help prevent oxidative stress caused by IR radiation and air pollution.
The only feature of use is that the product must be shaken before application, and your sunscreen cocktail is ready for action.
