Ladies, most of you would kill to have fair, radiant skin like Song Hye Kyo, right?
But you think it’s practically impossible. At least not here.
After all, we live in Singapore where the weather’s either sunny or rainy. Sometimes, the sun is out even when it’s raining. All. Year. Round.
There’s no escaping the hot sun, whether it be going out for lunch from the office or just walking to your destination. So unless you’re willing to be like that auntie who brings a tong gat umbrella wherever she goes, you’re resigned to your fate.
But you’ve already applied sunblock, you’d say.
It could be part of your makeup, or you could’ve been banana boating wherever you go. But is it enough?
What if I was to tell you that there’s a sunblock in Singapore that’s edible.
Yes, you eat it and it provides protection for your skin.
It was even featured on Women’s Weekly as one of the five skincare items to add to your daily routine for beautiful skin.
Of course, there’s a limit to its protection and topical sunblock is still necessary for high UV exposure. For example, sun-tanning on the beach.
How does it work?
If you are someone who loves or have no choice but to get out in the sun and is looking for a fuss-free way to let your skin stay healthy, you and Heliocare oral is a match made in heaven. Time to go BTO liao.
Okay, kidding, but seriously, here’s the magic ingredient that makes the oral sunblock work.
Heliocare oral contain an ingredient called Fernblock® – an extract obtained from ferns originating from Central America that developed a natural mechanism to protect itself from sun radiation.
It can act as an antioxidant to prevent reduce free radicals by 50% which prevent the formation of hyperpigmentation caused by UV rays. It helps to protect against sunburns and slow down skin ageing.
That was a mouthful.
Here’s the entire spiel in layman’s term: It can keep your skin fair, radiant and young.
Is it really safe? Sounds too good to be true.
I’m sure many people might be wondering: Huh, real or not? Is it really safe for consumption and what are the possible side effects of eating this?
Fernblock® has been used safely in the market for over 30 years in Europe without any reported side effects or weight gain. It is also non-toxic and does not contain iodine, chemicals, cholesterol, or hormones. Also, it’s patented by IFC group.
This product contains 100% fern extract, no chemicals added and has been extensively researched for its safety and effectiveness in Harvard Medical School for more than 12 years.
In fact, it comes highly recommended by skin doctors, doctors and plastic surgeons.
How many capsules do I need to take, and when do I take them?
All you’ve to do is to consume it 30 minutes before sun exposure. Take 2 capsules a day for daily sun exposure – 1 in the morning, 1 in the midday (i.e. 30 minutes before lunch). Take 4 capsules a day for intense sun exposure – 2 in the morning, 2 in the midday (3 hours after the first dose).
And yes, it’s perfectly safe for the consumption of children above the age of 6 too!
And well, if you’re wondering if you still need to apply sunblock after taking the capsules, you’re strongly recommended to!
