For people suffering from redness and reactive, irritated skin, there seem to be many more causes than solutions. You need products that are light enough not to make things worse, but with effective ingredients that are able to soothe as well as protect your skin from the sun and other environmental factors which are known to trigger redness, sensitivities, and rosacea.

The Heliocare 360° A-R Emulsion was designed as a daily sunscreen for people with sensitive skin prone to redness, including rosacea. Its powerful ingredients make it an ideal choice to wear year-round, to keep your skin calm, healthy, and protected.

What are Heliocare 360° daily sunscreens?

All Heliocare 360° daily sunscreens provide full-spectrum defence against UVB (minimum SPF50), UVA (PA++++), visible light and infrared-A, and contain intelligent ingredients to help boost skin health, including DNA repair enzymes and the supercharged antioxidant Fernblock®, which helps neutralise free radicals and increase the skin’s resistance to the sun.

Developed by skin experts with the understanding that not one daily sunscreen fits all, Heliocare 360° offers a wide range of daily sunscreens which offer targeted solutions for all skin types. With unique formulations designed to help prevent and reduce the symptoms of key skin concerns such as fine lines and wrinkles, pigmentation, and redness, as well as products that combine the benefits of full-spectrum daylight protection and foundation coverage, there’s a Heliocare 360° for everyone that you’ll love to use every day.

Why should we wear sunscreen every day?

In a survey by the Rosacea Society,¹ the number one trigger sufferers reported was sun exposure. Sun exposure occurs year-round, which makes wearing an effective sunscreen vital at any time of year in order to avoid making redness and irritation worse.

UVA, visible light, and infrared-A are present all year round, as is UVB (although it is less potent in the winter). UVA exposure is the cause of 85% of premature skin aging and can also exacerbate the inflammation caused by visible light. Meanwhile, infrared-A penetrates deep into the skin, where it can trigger an inflammatory response that causes redness and irritation.

Why winter is tough on sensitive and reactive skin

If you suffer from redness and rosacea, you know that flare-ups can be caused by many factors, not just the sun. Other common triggers are stress, wind, drinking alcohol, hot baths and drinks, and cold weather, all of which are common in winter. The dry weather can also dehydrate the skin, making it more reactive and also increasing discomfort. Using a product in the autumn and winter that not only calms redness, but protects against further inflammation, will help keep your skin healthy and happy regardless of the conditions.

Introducing the Heliocare 360° A-R Emulsion

The Heliocare 360° A-R (Anti-Redness) Emulsion provides full-spectrum sun protection and skin health-boosting ingredients in the rest of the Heliocare 360° range. On top of that, its innovative formula is designed to both reduce skin redness and prevent it from recurring. It does this with a triple-action anti-redness system of Physavie, Rosabora and Glutathione to help restore the skin’s barrier, reduce redness, and soothe away irritation.

It is a light formulation that is suitable for sensitive skin types and is designed for daily use, all year round. Its subtle pigment, best for Fitzpatrick skin types I-IV, helps blur redness and even out skin tone, while the rest of the formulation gets to work to tame reactivity.

Heliocare 360° A-R Emulsion: Unique Formulation

What sets the A-R Emulsion apart is its unique anti-redness system. Its three key ingredients combine to soothe inflammation, correct the microcirculation of the skin, and create a barrier to protect it from environmental triggers that can lead to flare-ups.

Physavie combines moisture-retaining ingredients with anti-inflammatory extract of the Physalis angulate. Physavie protects sensitive and reactive skin by:

• Restoring the skin barrier function
• Controlling the temperature and microcirculation of the skin
• Stimulating natural anti-oxidant defences

Rosabora is the extract of the Tambourissa trichophylla plant. In addition to calming redness, it can prevent the formation of new blood vessels, and prevent existing vessels from widening (called vasodilation), providing both immediate and long-term treatment of flare-ups. It also:

• Soothes the skin
• Helps restore the normal microcirculation of the skin
• Delivers powerful anti-inflammatory activity

Glutathione is an antioxidant found in plants, animals, fungi, and some bacteria. It is supports tissue building and repair, as well as immune system function. In the A-R Emulsion, it:

• Reduces redness
• Promotes anti-inflammatory activity that also stimulates the immune response
• Stimulates cell detoxification systems

Clinically proven results: Beyond sunscreen

In a clinical trial of the A-R Emulsion, 94% of participants who used it for 28 days said that it reduced their skin’s redness, while 89% said that the product reduced skin irritation, reduced the number of breakouts they were experiencing, and helped them gain self-confidence.²

And all those benefits are on top of the fantastic sun protection that blocks sunlight, a common trigger for redness, as well as preventing a host of other skin issues like sunburn, and sun damage that causes sagging and wrinkles.

On top of that, all Heliocare 360° sunscreens include the powerful skin health benefits of Fernblock® technology. In over 80 clinical studies, Fernblock has been proven to:

• Protect skin against damage caused by daylight^{3, 4, 5}
• Protect and repair skin cell DNA⁶
• Prevent light-induced pigmentation⁷
• Protect the skin’s immune system⁷
• Prevent collagen breakdown⁴

Nothing protects skin like Heliocare 360°

Fantastic sun protection and an innovative anti-redness system would be enough, but Heliocare 360° goes a step further, with skin-loving ingredients that improve skin health from the inside while protecting the outside with its unique antioxidant technology, Fernblock®.
