- Fumaric Acid : Fumaric acid or trans-butenedioic acid is a food additive commonly found in candy. In addition to being an antioxidant, European and Asian studies have shown that psoriasis is due to a metabolic error in the metabolism of fumaric acid. Fumaric acid is normally present in all cells of the body as a component of the citric acid cycle, which is responsible for cellular energy production. In healthy individuals, fumaric acid forms on the skin when exposed to sunlight. Patients suffering from psoriasis cannot produce enough fumaric acid and therefore cell division becomes abnormal. When fumaric acid is supplemented orally and applied topically, most patients improve dramatically.

Daywear Advanced Multi-Protection Anti-Oxidant Creme SPF15 Review Summary by Estee Lauder
It is a light moisturizer with a broad spectrum SPF 15 sun protection. Yes, this factor is not enough to protect the skin throughout the day. However, this is not intended to be a sunscreen.
It’s supposed to be a moisturizer with the added benefit of a little sun protection, which is always welcome.
It is a formula rich in antioxidants, although this is not reflected in the first positions, which are used by emollients and silicones to create a very pleasant texture. The hydrating effect lasts all day and does not make the skin greasy.
Protective effects begin with guava, gentian, and fallopia japonica extract, botanical antioxidants that protect skin from oxidative stress and collagen-damaging free radical damage .
Antioxidants are supplemented by rosemary extract, and grape extract, since the others (such as squalene, vitamin C, E and others) are in too low a concentration to show any benefit.
The formula is completed with soothing, anti-inflammatory ingredients and hyaluronic acid. Although again, most of them are in very low proportions.
Throughout the list we can also see irritant ingredients, perfume, coloring and some preservatives harmful to the skin distributed. What makes you consider the supposed benefit of this product.
The consistency of Estee Lauder Daywear Cream is light and absorbs quickly into the skin, leaving no residue on the surface of the skin or on the hands.
The cream has a light green color but is still transparent. Just because it has a light green tint does not mean it offers any color correction.
The product is scented. Therefore, if you are sensitive to fragrances, please avoid this product! As for the rest of the people, its lovely fragrance smells like fresh cut grass or something similar, and it does not last long on the skin.
As a moisturizer it is fine (although it is not the best we have tried). It is not a cream with many anti-aging or treatment properties. It’s pretty basic with a little sun protection and a ton of antioxidants.
This works to restore radiance and even skin tone, even if you don’t expect too much of an effect on pigmentation or fine lines.
However, although the cream works, its effect begins to diminish over time. That is, the last third of the container will not give you the same results that the rest of the product has provided.
This is because it is packaged in a jar with a lid . With the constant opening and closing of the jar throughout the month, the antioxidants present in the cream break down, reducing its effectiveness over time.
Air and sunlight also degrade functional assets, rendering them useless in a short time. This undermines any benefits that can be achieved, so it is not a cream that I would recommend.
Alternative
The cream that we do recommend is the Nezeni Cosmetics option, a cosmetic that will do much more for your skin, and with a much more adjusted price.
It has a combination of antioxidants, peptides, and moisturizers that works great for treating fine lines and wrinkles, as well as hydrating and replenishing dehydrated skin.
Its packaging is much more protective than the jar, and we are sure that its assets will continue to offer results until the end. Finally, avoid any irritant, and limit preservatives as much as possible.
