Colorless Carotenoids

The colorless carotenoids, phytofluene and phytoene, are two types of algae sourced from the Red Sea. They are antioxidants and anti-inflammatories which absorb UV light, and even get stronger in the presence of UV light. Unlike most antioxidants, however, colorless carotenoids do not “die” after absorbing UV light; in fact, they have an endless capacity to absorb. We use colorless carotenoids in combination with the sunscreen avobenzone in our SHIELDrf sunscreen technology to prolong UVA protection and decelerate photo-aging.  This exclusive technology allows us to achieve aesthetically appealing formulations with higher SPFs.

Find colorless carotenoids and our exclusive SHIELDrf sunscreen technology in Rodan + Fields® ANTI-AGE Triple Defense Treatment SPF 30.

Skimping on Sunscreen is a no-no!

The sun is the No. 1 culprit when it comes to aging. It’s easy to see what the sun has done to your skin over time. Compare the skin on the inside of your arm with that on the outside of your arm and on the back of your hands. If you’re like most people, the skin on the inside is smooth, clear, firm and unmarked, while the skin on the outside is “dry roasted”: freckled, dry, finely lined, not as firm, and possibly dotted with brown spots. And if you spend much time driving (in the U.S.), your left arm is probably worse than your right. Skin is simply closer to perfection “where the sun don’t shine.”

The most important thing you can do to keep your skin looking young, not to mention healthy, is never to expose unprotected skin to the sun. Slather your skin with a broad spectrum UVA/UVB sunscreen and apply it often. It’s the ultimate wrinkle cream.
