Despite a rigorous commitment to SPF, seeking-out shade or your favourite hat, sometimes sun exposure [accidental or otherwise] can wreak havoc on the skin. The result? Dryness, pigmentation or red, inflamed skin.

So, what exactly is in-vitro testing?

Translated from Latin, the term in-vitro means "in glass" — in-vitro testing is carried out in a lab; as opposed to clinical trials which take place on a living human subject. Although both forms of testing are valuable, the scientific nature of in-vitro testing in a lab environment removes human bias and provides objective results on efficacy.

And why is Type I collagen important?

Although there's 5 key types of collagen found in the body, 90% of your body’s collagen is made up of Type I. Providing structure to your skin [along with bones, tendons and ligaments], Type I collagen is densely packed and declines naturally as we age. UV exposure also causes collagen to break down more rapidly.
