Protects Skin Against Harmful UV Rays
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are well-known for their involvement in the innate immune system. Melanocytes express functional TLR-2 & TLR-3, emphasizing that UV-induced skin pigmentation is a natural defensive reaction.
TLR-2 and TLR-3 enhance melanogenesis by controlling both the transport of melanin in melanocytes and its transfer to keratinocytes.
By acting on Tlr-2 And Tlr-3 in addition to biological markers of melanogenesis, EPSILINE® potentiates skin pigmentation with and without UV exposure, while
protecting skin cells against harmful sun rays.
Thus, EPSILINE® allows a double effect: nice tanning and skin protection.
