Antioxidant protection

Mila d’Opiz skincare for antioxidant protection

UV radiation, air pollution and other daily environmental influences can produce free radicals in the skin. These unstable molecules may contribute to dullness, an uneven-looking complexion and the premature appearance of fine lines and other signs of skin ageing.

Antioxidants help neutralise free radicals and support the skin against oxidative stress. Mila d’Opiz offers serums, concentrates and creams containing vitamin C, vitamin B3 and antioxidant botanical extracts.

Antioxidant skincare is a valuable addition to daily sun protection, but it never replaces a broad-spectrum sunscreen.

Which Mila d’Opiz products support antioxidant protection?

Vitamin C Concentrate

A concentrated treatment for dull, tired or uneven-looking skin. Vitamin C works as an antioxidant and helps the complexion appear fresher, brighter and more even.

The concentrate is particularly suitable for routines addressing dullness, early signs of ageing and visible pigmentation differences. Always apply separate sunscreen during the day.

Vitamin B3 Concentrate

A concentrate containing niacinamide to support the skin barrier and help the skin retain moisture. It is suitable for sensitive, blemish-prone, dull or uneven-looking skin.

Niacinamide can also help visible redness, enlarged-looking pores and pigmentation differences appear less noticeable.

Beauty Detox Concentrate

An intensive treatment for dull, tired skin or skin exposed to environmental stress. The concentrate supports skin renewal and helps the complexion appear smoother and fresher.

Because the formula contains a vitamin A derivative, introduce it gradually. Do not combine it in the same routine with strong peels, exfoliating acids or other retinol products.

Vegan Green Caviar Concentrate

A hydrating concentrate featuring green caviar extracts. It supports the skin against moisture loss and daily environmental influences while helping tired skin look smoother and more revitalised.

White Shade Vision Serum

A skincare serum for dark spots and an uneven-looking complexion. Its formula helps existing discolouration appear less noticeable and protects against visible harmful effects associated with daily UV exposure.

Its integrated UV system does not replace a separate broad-spectrum sunscreen.

Royal Black Pearl Divine Serum

A luxurious anti-ageing serum for mature or tired-looking skin. It provides intensive care and supports a smoother, firmer and more radiant appearance.

SUN SUN Drops SPF 50 & Bluelight

High daily protection against UVA and UVB radiation and blue light. The drops can be applied directly to the skin or mixed with a day cream according to the product directions.

Use a sufficient amount and reapply during prolonged exposure, especially after swimming, perspiring or towel-drying.

Antioxidant skincare is suitable for:

• Dull or tired-looking skin.
• Skin frequently exposed to sunlight or air pollution.

Morning routine

1. Cleanse with a gentle facial cleanser.

2. Apply Microbiome Daily Balancing Tonic if desired.

3. Use Vitamin C Concentrate, Vitamin B3 Concentrate or White Shade Vision Serum.

4. Apply eye care.

5. Follow with a suitable day cream.

6. Finish with a generous amount of broad-spectrum SPF 30 or SPF 50.

1. Remove makeup and sunscreen.

2. Cleanse the skin thoroughly.

3. Apply toner if desired.

4. Use an antioxidant concentrate or serum.

5. Apply a suitable eye cream.

6. Finish with a hydrating or nourishing night cream.

Use Beauty Detox Concentrate preferably in the evening and introduce it gradually. Always follow the directions provided for the individual product.

Which products combine well?

• Vitamin C Concentrate with a hydrating moisturiser.
• Vitamin B3 Concentrate with Hyaluronic⁷ Serum.
• Vegan Green Caviar Concentrate with Vegan Green Caviar Hydration Mask.
• White Shade Vision Serum with White Shade Vision Cream.
• An antioxidant serum with Hyaluronic⁷ Light or Rich Cream.
• Antioxidant skincare with daily broad-spectrum sunscreen.

Which combinations require additional care?

• Do not use Beauty Detox Concentrate directly with a strong retinol product.
• Do not combine Beauty Detox Concentrate with a powerful peel or high-strength exfoliating acids in the same routine.
• Do not introduce several active concentrates simultaneously if your skin is sensitive.
• Reduce use if redness, flaking or a burning sensation develops.
• Do not apply facial serums directly to the moving eyelids.
• Always combine antioxidant skincare with daily sun protection.

Vitamin C and niacinamide can generally be used together. Sensitive skin may benefit from using them at different times initially, such as vitamin C in the morning and niacinamide in the evening.

Antioxidants and sun protection

Antioxidants support the skin against the effects of free radicals, but they do not automatically filter UV radiation. Only a product displaying an SPF provides controlled protection against sunlight.

Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen as the final step of every morning routine. Reapply during prolonged outdoor exposure and after swimming, heavy perspiration or towel-drying.

What can you expect?

With consistent use, antioxidant skincare can help the complexion appear fresher, smoother and more even. Dullness, fine lines and pigmentation differences may gradually become less noticeable.

Antioxidant cosmetics cannot completely reverse existing skin damage or prevent every sign of ageing. Daily sunscreen, gentle cleansing and sufficient hydration remain essential.
