POLLUTION-RELATED FREE RADICAL DAMAGE
8-isoprostane levels are a measure of free radical damage. These increase in the presence of pollution – especially very aggressive pollution particles. Pollution (like DPM 2.5) damages skin, accelerates skin aging, increases the frequency and severity of skin symptoms and increases the incidence of other systemic diseases. Application of Reparative Moisture Emulsion prior to pollution exposure prevented much of the pollution-related free radical damage
