Heliocare represents a new era in dermatological photoprotection. Fernblock technology was developed by the IFC Group, based in Spain, in collaboration with a group of leading experts in dermatology and photobiology at Harvard Medical School.
It is based on a natural extract from Polypodium Leucotomos, a tropical Central American fern which evolved from an aquatic to land plant, developing strong protective and repair mechanisms against UV radiation.
Fernblock, an ingredient in all Heliocare products, will save your skin by:
- Acting as an anti-oxidant to prevent UV radiation.
- Protecting immune cells and preserving skin functionality.
- Preventing the formation of mutated cells to prevent skin cancer.
- Protecting elastic fibres to prevent photoageing.
Heliocare selected Sorbet as new retail partner! Consumers can now find Heliocare more readily available. From September last year, Heliocare is available at 21 Sorbet stores nationwide. Heliocare is still be available at selected salons and online stores as before.
