The line fortifies against UVA and UVB rays with a new generation of micronized filters, Payot said, which prevent sunburn and premature aging. Other key ingredients include sunflower oil with oleic acid to preserve the skin’s collagen and elastin fibers, and sunflower petals, which are rich in flavonoids and neutralize free radicals to prevent cellular damage.
A combination of lotus flower, peony and jasmine yields a delicate and non-photosensitive fragrance.
