5 min read

Photoprotection is the highest-leverage daily habit in skin longevity — and the one most often applied inconsistently.

Practical adherence beats theoretical optimality: the formulation you actually apply every morning outperforms the higher-rated one you skip.

Aicona Labs recommendations weight adherence heavily, because a routine you sustain for years is what produces measurable change.
