1. Does CielementsMD Daily DNA / UVADefense Cream replace sunscreen?

No! But it’s the best friend your sunscreen never knew it needed. Here’s the thing about sunscreen (which you should continue to use): it works by blocking the rays from hitting your skin. But it only works as well as you apply it, and it needs to be reapplied frequently (which you should continue to do, too). But what happens when those rays hit your skin? That’s where we come in with potent CBD that has been clinically proven to mitigate damage at the cellular level. Ah, you say, but my antioxidant serum scavenges those damage-causing free radicals. Yes, it does, but it doesn’t penetrate your skin as deeply or work as powerfully as CielementsMD Daily DNA / UVA Defense Cream to not just prevent but reduce damage.

2. Can you tell me more about the study?

At 24 hours after being exposed to controlled levels of UVA radiation, 21% of the study participants had less observed erythema (reddening of the skin) on the side of their skin that had been treated with Advanced NanoShield Cream — as determined by a punch biopsy. Bottom line: It’s protecting your skin when you forget to.

3. Can kids use it?

It hasn’t been tested on children, but it’s a natural product, which is 100-percent free of harmful additives and was developed to be safe for everyone.
