Protection against UV radiation: invisible UV rays penetrate deep into unprotected skin and can cause skin irritations and irreparable damage in the long term. Alcina Stress Control Cream offers broad-band protection with sun protection factor 15; it protects against harmful UV radiation and suppresses the formation of \"free radicals\". The cream\'s broad-band protection is impressive: UVB protection prevents acute irritation, particularly sunburn, while UVA protection helps the skin to fight the signs of aging due to the sun/UV light. The radical scavenger, lycopene, an effective cell-protector found in tomatoes, is one of the antioxidants capable of scavenging \"free radicals\". Alcina Stress Control Cream contains another line of defence against the skin\'s enemies: Defensil. This phyto regeneration protection is won from balloon plant, echium oil and sunflower oil. Defensil contained in the Stress Control Cream from Alcina gently soothes stressed and irritated skin, protects and strengthens the skin\'s barrier and helps to actively prevent premature skin aging.
