EUK 134 is a manganese complex that has found to exhibit powerful antioxidant activity when included in skin care formulations.
Studies have shown that cells treated with EUK 134 before exposure to UVB rays demonstrated less cell damage than expected without treatment. EUK 134 mimics two enzymes present in cells – super oxide dismutase and catalase. These enzymes help to remove toxins from cell and fight free radical damage.
It’s well known that antioxidants work synergistically with sunscreens to enhance protection against UV rays. While sunscreens either block or deflect rays, reducing skin damage, antioxidants minimize the impact of free radical harm. Clinical trials have demonstrated that EUK 134 inhibits DNA damage and reduces inflammation.
EUK 134 is a welcome addition to the anti aging arsenal of ingredients. Look for it in Neostrata Oil Free Anti Aging Sunscreen Lotion.
