This is due to the emission of high energy visible light (HEV), more commonly known as short-wave blue light. While the radiation from our technology is low, the increase in the number of devices in use and the frequency in which they’re used has meant that our skin, which has never previously been exposed to this degree, needs to be protected. The best protection against HEV are natural carotenoids and antioxidants, so why wouldn’t you expect them to be found in the products used in your everyday make-up routine? The KIND Collective has developed two revolutionary products that contain blue light protection to support your skin so that it looks and feels its best. Utilising a supercharged blend of oils and extracts, including Crambe Abyssinica seed oil, beta-carotene, vitamin E, sunflower seed oil, and rosemary leaf extract. These ingredients are formulated to mimic the natural production of carotenoids that freshwater algae generate to protect itself from UV stress. Be sure to check out their Blur Perfecting Primer or Mineral Powder.
