Leading a positive, active lifestyle can be very demanding on your skin. PAR Skincare talks about balancing peak performance and active skincare.
Spending time outdoors, your skin can suffer from the elements, such as UV light, free radicals, polluted air and dry climate. Leading a positive, active lifestyle - such as playing Golf - can therefore be very demanding on your skin, making it prone to drying out and causing premature ageing, such as sunspots and wrinkles.
PAR Skincare has been specially created using stem cell technology to repair the damage and protect your skin whilst being active outdoors. The product allows you to balance peak performance and active skincare at the same time. The skin absorbs it quickly; it’ s non-sticky and doesn’t leave any residue - the perfect solution for
golfers!
PAR Skincare is based on the Edelweiss flower. Known for its hardiness and resilience to UV light in extreme environments, the flower contains powerful cellular ingredients with anti-ageing and anti oxidant properties. The enzymes that cause collagen degradation in your skin are restrained by power peptides that also activate collagen production to result in significant wrinkle reduction.
The creator of the product, Dr. Rolf Schäfer, has an extensive 30+ years working in the skincare and pharmaceutical industry. Being active in the Swiss Alps,
he was inspired to merge his passion f or an active lifestyle and skincare:
“My goal was to deliver anti-ageing in the most effective way possible, to support a lifestyle that is as uncompromising as mine. I want to focus on my outdoor activities, and not to worry about my skin; to enjoy myself outside, and look good doing it. ”
As the official skincare supplier of the European Senior Tour PAR Skincare has been used by a number of golf legends. Having spent most of their life on a golf course, they know what skincare means to an outdoor professional. The message about PAR Skincare is clear: the product works, it is easily applied and does not interfere with the sport. The result: significant Protection, Anti-ageing & Rejuvenation for firmer, smoother skin.
The PAR Skincare team has the following winter skincare tips:
1. PROTECT YOUR SKIN OUTDOORS
UV protection is also important in winter sun, and not just when you are in the snowy Alps! Apply a product 30 minutes before going outside to protect skin from the sun
and cold. Reapply frequently if you remain outside for a long period. Keep skin covered to avoid windburn. Wear a scarf to protect your neck and chin and a hat to protect your ears.
2. DON’T LET YOUR SKIN DRY OUT
During winter months apply moisturiser more frequently as the air around can be dry. Do not use any alcohol-based products. Take care of lips by using a lip balm. Central heating systems create hot and dry air in the home and office; however, humidifiers release moisture in the air and this helps to prevent skin from drying out. Also, when taking showers or a bath, remember that long exposure to hot water, more than 10 minutes, strips moisture from skin.
3. EAT HEALTHY
Skin health is supported by food intake. Eat healthy monounsaturated fats and omega-3 fatty acids, such as fish, nuts, olive oil and avocados. Foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids help reduce the body’s inflamatory processes found in the skin. While drinking water is healthy and often recommended, it does little to help dry skin. Increase the intake of Vitamin C as it stimulates collagen formation in your skin fibroblasts.
