Journal ArticleDOI

Cutaneous photodamage, oxidative stress, and topical antioxidant protection

TL;DR: This scientific review summarizes what is known about how photodamage occurs; why sunscreens--the current gold standard of photoprotection--are inadequate; and how topical AOs help protect against skin cancer and photoaging changes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Topical vitamin C protects porcine skin from ultraviolet radiation‐induced damage

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that the vitamin C levels of the skin can be severely depleted after UV irradiation, which would lower this organ's innate protective mechanism as well as leaving it at risk of impaired healing after photoinduced damage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ferulic acid stabilizes a solution of vitamins C and E and doubles its photoprotection of skin

TL;DR: This combination of pure natural low molecular weight antioxidants provides meaningful synergistic protection against oxidative stress in skin and should be useful for protection against photoaging and skin cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

UV photoprotection by combination topical antioxidants vitamin C and vitamin E

TL;DR: Appreciable photoprotection can be obtained from the combination of topical vitamins C and E and it is suggested that these natural products may protect against skin cancer and photoaging.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence supporting zinc as an important antioxidant for skin

TL;DR: The evidence supporting zinc's antioxidant role in protecting against free radical‐induced oxidative damage is reviewed, and zinc protects against UV radiation, enhances wound healing, contributes to immune and neuropsychiatric functions, and decreases the relative risk of cancer and cardiovascular disease.
