In his Metamorphoses (around 8 AD, Book 1, verses 89–112), Ovid describes the Golden Age: a world in perfect balance, where nature and humanity live in harmony, abundance reigns without excess, and beauty knows no decay. Everything that can thrive does so effortlessly, protected from want and destruction by a natural equilibrium.
This ideal of natural balance and protective power is embraced by the 08 360° All Day Protection Cream. In line with the WHO's "Decade of Healthy Ageing" initiative, RU21 pursues this ideal in a modern form: Healthspan Optimization, meaning the maintenance of healthy skin functions throughout all phases of life. Inspired by our clinical and scientific experience, our formulations are based on the principle of Preventive Longevity. They not only address visible signs of aging but also act preventively against molecular stressors that can contribute to structural skin changes in the long term.
Modern Skin Longevity: Protection, Balance and Prevention
The WHO's focus on "Healthy Ageing" centers on lifestyle, environmental factors, and prevention. This is where the 08 360° All Day Protection Cream comes in: it combines active ingredient technology with a scientifically sound, non-invasive skincare approach. The multifunctional formulation of the 08 360° All Day Protection Cream supports the skin in counteracting oxidative stress, regulating silent inflammatory processes, stabilizing moisture levels, and maintaining the extracellular structure. This strengthens the skin's natural function and prevents age-related and environmentally induced changes.
The 08 360° All Day Protection Cream combines skin-soothing, moisturizing, structure-strengthening, and antioxidant active ingredients in a medically and scientifically developed day cream. The formula stabilizes the skin's environment and strengthens its resistance to environmental stressors. It helps maintain a balance reminiscent of the equilibrium described in Ovid's Metamorphoses.
