Prickly Pear Challenges Sun Damage
Blog | 22 Aug 2022FORESEEN SHIELD NOPAL or THE BARBARY FIG, commonly known as THE PRICKLY PEAR, found originally in MEXICO, contains all the richness of the species, and is known to have 31 benefits. As this cactus protects itself from the hot dry elements from where it grows, so can it protect our skin from the UV rays with the use of bio-technology.
Taking just 2mm of the cactus without hurting the plant, and harvesting it in a laboratory with no pollution, no oxidisation, no soil or fertiliser and the minimum water, the benefits of the cactus are maximised. The cells are then extracted to be used in our skincare. This limits the numerous bad effects induced by the UV rays, which damage the skin and make it age more quickly. Using this plant cell technology, it has been shown in clinical trials to decrease the production of melanin which creates dark spots as well as increasing the skin’s tolerance and defence system. Also, the cells continue regenerating and repairing tissue, keeping skin better protected and looking younger.
We are dedicated to limit ageing due to UV rays without overuse of chemical sun blocks
