Skin Blue Filter, the revolutionary supplement from Advanced Nutrition Programme designed to protect your skin from the damaging effects of blue light, which originates from the sun – and not our screens!
The Science Behind Blue Light
While UV light accounts for only 5% of sunlight, blue light comprises a significant 25-30%. Contrary to popular belief, the sun is the primary source of blue light exposure, not electronic devices or LED bulbs. Blue light has the shortest wavelengths and highest energy within the visible light spectrum, which can be both beneficial and harmful to our skin, depending on the exposure intensity, duration, and timing.
The Impact of Blue Light Exposure
Numerous independent studies have revealed that excessive blue light exposure can lead to:
- Increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), causing oxidative damage to the skin’s lipid layer
- Cellular DNA damage and heightened inflammation
- Damage to fibroblasts and keratinocytes
- Increased pigmentation
- Elevated matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) levels, which degrade collagen and elastin, accelerate skin ageing, and result in lines, wrinkles, and skin laxity
Introducing Skin Blue Filter
The innovative minds at Advanced Nutrition Programme developed Skin Blue Filter to address the consequences of natural, environmental blue light exposure on the skin. This unique supplement is suitable for all skin types and offers comprehensive protection by combining cell-protecting nutrients and targeted antioxidants for enhanced protection and anti-inflammatory benefits. Key ingredients include:
- Vitamin E: Provides antioxidant protection for our cells (including DNA, protein, and lipids)
- Olive fruit extract: Acts as an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and skin protector, reducing skin discoloration, uneven pigmentation, and redness caused by excessive sun exposure
- Lutein + Zeaxanthin: Phytonutrients from marigold flowers that improve skin tone, increase skin luminosity, and enhance elasticity
- Biotin (Vitamin B7): Contributes to maintaining normal skin
By incorporating this supplement into your daily routine, you can support your skin’s health and maintain its youthful appearance.
These powerful ingredients are encapsulated in brilliant blue capsules. The blue pigment is derived from spirulina extract.
Remarkable Research and Results
Advanced Nutrition Programme’s researchers collaborated with a specialised laboratory in Germany, which developed the Lipbarvis® method to measure skin damage caused by blue light exposure. The results showed that this formulation not only repairs existing damage but also protects the skin from future blue light exposure by 60%. In a 56-day pilot study involving 16 participants (13 women and 3 men), the supplement yielded the following results:
- Hydration improved by 17%
- 16% improvement in wrinkles
- Redness decreased by 19%
Ideal for All Skin Types and Ages: perfect for anyone seeking age prevention, those with light sensitivity, inflammatory skin conditions, high environmental exposure, or during spring and summer months. The supplement is vegan-friendly and free from gluten, dairy, yeast, salt, and soy.
