MAINTAIN HEALTHY, PROTECTED SKIN WITH FRÉ’S ANTIOXIDANT PATENT

FRÉ’s line of suncare and skincare is powered by proprietary Argania Active Complex™, an anti-aging complex that combines argan oil with the stem cells and leaf water of the resilient desert argan tree. These three argan elements work together to form an antioxidant powerhouse that fights free radical aggressors and synergistically minimizes the damaging effects of sun on the skin.

The complex slows the oxidative process to fight UV damage, helping to minimize the signs of photoaging like fine lines, wrinkles, and leathery texture. All FRÉ’s mineral SPFs contain Argania Active Complex™ for naturally boosted sun protection. 

Fighting Photoaging

Photoaging is a process that starts in childhood when skin is overexposed to sunlight. Sunlight contains UVA and UVB rays that penetrate the skin and trigger free radicals (unstable atoms). These free radicals, in turn, damage skin cell DNA and collagen fibers. Since the damage happens in the deeper layers of the skin, you do not see signs of damage right away. But as you age, UV damage accumulates and becomes visible, appearing on the skin as wrinkles, lines, dark spots, sagging skin, etc. We refer to these changes as “signs of aging,” but 90% of visible changes to the skin are caused by UV rays, not your numerical age. 

Using FRÉ’s Argania Active Complex™ suncare and skincare, effectively protects skin and prevents the long term effects of UV damage (wrinkles, fine lines, dark spots, hyperpigmentation, loss of elasticity). Let’s dive into each of the three ingredients and what makes them remarkable.

Argan oil contains powerful antioxidants

Argan Oil is a powerhouse of antioxidants, including vitamins A and E. Antioxidants neutralize free radicals and prevent them from causing damage to the skin cells. They boost the skin photoprotection effect, even in skincare products that do not contain SPF. Antioxidants in argan oil also have an anti-inflammatory effect, soothing irritated and red skin. Additionally, antioxidants stabilize formulations and UV filters in sunscreens.

In addition to antioxidants, argan oil is also rich in omega-6 fatty acids and linoleic acid, which deeply nourish and hydrate skin. Also, the combination of vitamin E and ferulic acid in argan oil maintain skin elasticity.

Argan stem cells repair skin

Argan stem cells are derived from the argan tree, scientifically known as Argania Spinosa. Scientific research has shown that argan stem cells are the first active ingredients to demonstrate a proven effect protecting and revitalizing dermal stem cells. They reduce wrinkles, tighten and tone skin tissue, increase skin firmness and density, and foster deep-seated rejuvenation of the skin.

In addition, the combination of argan stem cells and argan oil is more effective in treating skin inflammation than steroids, leaving skin clear and soothed. 

Argan leaf-water extract boosts collagen

Argan leaf-water extract is rich in phenolic compounds that are known to act as skin protectors and foster collagen regeneration. Ferulic acid, one of the specific phenolic compounds found in argan leaf-water extract, helps protect the skin from UV radiation and free radical activity. These compounds leave skin looking younger.

Argania Active Complex™ boosts sun protection 

Unique to FRÉ’s skincare line, Argania Active Complex™ is a naturally powerful combination of argan oil, argan stem cells, and argan leaf-water extract that synergistically protects the skin from UV damage. Argania Active Complex™ boosts sun protection and protects skin from UV damage.
