Wrinkle Prevention
Defend is a brilliantly crafted and effective formula with high percentages of ingredients that help you face the daily onslaught of damaging UV, irritants and drying environmental factors. Recently updated, Defend now contains the collagen protecting peptide, Syn-Coll as well as the addition of a new favorite in antioxidant protection, Lipochroman-6.

Balances Oil & Shine
Shiny skin isn't too often a welcome sight. On the other hand, many anti-shine products go a bit far and either make your face look chalky and drab or coated and caked. Defend feels great and does a great job of absorbing excess oil throughout the day, keeping your skin balanced and natural-looking. An added benefit to the oil absorbers in Defend is diffusion of light which softens the look of fine lines.

Hydrates & Tones
Defend feels light and pleasant, keeping your skin hydrated and toned throughout the day. Defend also increases skin's elasticity, helping you further avoid new wrinkle formation.
