SCIENTISTS at Mary Kay have been investigating the effects of air pollution on skin for years.
Previous efforts have analysed the biochemical responses of human skin cells to various forms of pollution, including diesel exhaust and urban air pollution.
Key findings have revealed a proprietary blend of antioxidants reduces those responses.
"Mary Kay scientists have spent years researching the latest ingredient innovations to best defend against free radicals and help delay the onset of premature skin ageing," said Dr Lucy Gildea (pictured), Chief Innovation Officer, Product & Science at Mary Kay.
Another environmental medicine expert Dr Jean Krutmann has been leading research to check the effect of air pollution on human skin since the publication of a paper in 2010 showing the effect of airborne particle exposure on skin ageing.
The findings presented recently are the latest efforts by Mary Kay to reinforce the brand's long-standing commitment to advancing research and development in skin health and beauty.
Mary Kay holds more than 1,600 patents for products, technologies, and packaging designs in its global portfolio.
