If you wish to dramatically slow down ageing, Heliocare 360 º sunscreen is one of the best creams on the market you can gift your future skin. It has exceptional UVA and UVB protection with an SPF 50, it is remarkably high in antioxidant properties; including Vitamin C, E and green tea to help neutralise free radicals and block out photo-ageing that damages skin every day even in winter. And it features a revolutionary age-fighting ingredient Fernblock®, found in the amazon rainforest and scientifically proven to protect skin structure, immune response and provides daily defence against environmental and UV ageing processes – this unique anti-oxidant helps the skin stay younger for longer.
Many UV protectant creams only protect against UVB and provide little or no UVA protection from the sun’s powerful rays, UVB causes surface skin burning and UVA causes deeper skin damage such as lines, wrinkles and sagging skin.
Heliocare Cream 360 provides the ultimate protection for both. Wear it daily all year round, under makeup instead of a regular day moisturiser. Alternatively, you can wear it over your day moisturiser if you already have a favourite one.
Heliocare Cream 360 offers the softness of a cream with the finish of a gel that melts into the skin.
Heliocare 360 features a delicate nude tone that helps skin look less red and more toned upon first application, simply wait 3 minutes for the cream to adjust to your skin tone and watch it make your skin look youthful and more even toned.

Dermapen microneedling increasingly has proved to be a powerful tool in refining acne scarring and stretch marks. Ideally, 3 – 5 treatments at 2- to 4-week intervals have produced improvements of between 50 – 70 percent. An added advantage is that isolated areas of scarring can be treated without creating demarcation lines between treated and non-treated areas. Stimulating the skin’s collagen and elastin production, microneedling also promotes better nutrient penetration.

Dermapen microneedling is gaining popularity for reducing the appearance acne scars and stretch marks. “The minimally invasive microneedling technique involves a series of tiny, very fine needles that are passed over the skin, creating micro-injuries which trigger new collagen and elastin synthesis as the skin begins to naturally repair itself,” said Lasermed manager Penny Jenkinson. These micro-injuries stimulate the growth of collagen, the scaffolding under the skin, which then improves the appearance of some scars and wrinkles. It also creates channels that allow serums or your own plasma to penetrate deeper into the skin resulting in better product efficacy. Image: stylecraze.com
It’s safe to slap on the sunscreen this summer — in repeated doses — despite what you’ve read about the potential toxicity of sunscreens.
A new study led by the University of Queensland (UQ) and University of South Australia (UniSA) provides the first direct evidence that zinc oxide nanoparticles used in sunscreen neither penetrate the skin nor cause cellular toxicity after repeated applications.
UQ and UniSA lead investigator, Professor Michael Roberts, says the myth about sunscreen toxicity took hold after previous animal studies found much higher skin absorption of zinc-containing sunscreens than in human studies.
“There were concerns that these zinc oxide nanoparticles could be absorbed into the epidermis, with toxic consequences, including DNA damage,” Professor Roberts says. The toxicity link was picked up by consumers, sparking fears that people could reduce their sunscreen use.
Professor Roberts and his co-researchers in Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth and Germany studied the safety of repeated applications of zinc oxide nanoparticles applied to five volunteers aged 20-30 years.
Volunteers applied the ZnO nanoparticles every hour for six hours on five consecutive days.
“Using superior imaging methods, we established that the nanoparticles remained within the superficial layers of the skin and did not cause any cellular damage,” Professor Roberts says.
“We hope that these findings help improve consumer confidence in these products and in turn lead to better sun protection. The terrible consequences of skin cancer and skin damage caused by prolonged sun exposure are much greater than any toxicity posed by approved sunscreens.”

The results from Dermapen microneedling can last for months after each treatment. Results can be seen from one to eight weeks later. Typically you’ll see results after your first treatment. Lasting and more significant results will occur after 4 – 6 treatments when spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. The results in the accompanying photo speak loud and clear.
Good news is that we’ve extended our Dermapen special to include March as well (thanks to overwhelming interest).
