If you want younger-looking skin that's hydrated and healthy, you need to protect your skin from pollution. When exposed to environmental stressors, mineral depletion in the skin occurs, leading to premature aging, weakened skin, dullness, dehydration and sensitivity. Learn why you need mineral skin care and how to protect skin below.

Why you need mineral skin care

Pollution, exhaust fumes, industrial smoke, ozone, extreme weather and free radicals all rob the skin of needed minerals, moisture, and other crucial elements, thus weakening the skin. In fact, recent dermatological studies directly connect pollution with increased dark spots*, nasolabial folds* (smile lines), and significant loss of hydration**.

How to protect skin from pollution: Remineralist Daily Moisture

Remineralist Daily Moisture's oceanic formula replenishes skin's depleted minerals to achieve the elemental equilibrium of young skin. Its' advanced formula also defends against stressors that cause lines, dehydration and irritation.

• Increases skin's moisture content up to 70%* in just 15 minutes (1)
• Red algae increases skin's natural hyaluronic acid by 211% and ceramides by 56% (2)
• Copper-rich malachite acts as a pollution magnet and inhibits pollution-induced superoxide anions within the cell at a rate of more than 98% (3)

Here's how Remineralist works:

Sea salt: a mineral-loaded cocktail (iron, manganese, selenium + zinc) that replenishes what pollution depletes. This blend helps rebalance the skin for proper function and growth, encourages vibrancy, stabilizes hydration levels and helps skin absorb more minerals and nutrients.

Red algae: harvested from the Baltic Sea, this ingredient protects against dryness and irritation caused by pollution. It does so by replenishing and maintaining skin's Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF) and works deeper by stimulating the skin's own natural production of moisturizing hyaluronic acid.

Malachite: a copper-rich pollution magnet and heavy metal scavenger that helps support the cellular damage protection system and neutralize everyday skin-aging and oxidative stress.
