Yon-Ka Vital Defense - 50ml

Living or working in the city means your skin faces fine particles, smoke and dust every single day. These pollutants settle on the skin's surface and trigger oxidative stress, leaving your complexion dull and tired. Yon-Ka Vital Defense is the anti-pollution day cream from the Age Defense line, developed specifically for modern city life: it forms a protective barrier, hydrates intensely and helps your skin preserve its youthful, radiant appearance. Suitable for all skin types.

How it works

The cream combines a cocktail of antioxidants: vitamin A (retinyl palmitate), a stable form of vitamin C (ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate) and vitamin E (tocopheryl acetate and tocopherol), completed by ubiquinone. Together they help counter oxidative stress caused by free radicals. Organic myrtle (Myrtus communis) and moringa peptides strengthen the skin's natural defences against pollutants and help keep the surface clean and resilient. Glycerin, urea and squalane provide comfortable, long-lasting hydration and suppleness.

Texture and how to use it in your routine

The melting texture absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy film, which makes it an excellent base under make-up. Its 100% natural scent of sweet orange, mandarin and magnolia turns your morning ritual into a moment for yourself. Apply Vital Defense in the morning after cleansing with Lait Nettoyant or Gel Nettoyant and after Lotion Yon-Ka PS or PNG. For a more tailored routine, mix 1-2 pumps of a booster into the cream: Hydra+ for hydration, Nutri+ for nourishment, Lift+ for firmness or Défense+ for extra protection. Finish with Phyto-Contour around the eyes.

Frequently asked questions

Which skin type is Vital Defense for?

All skin types. It is especially designed for anyone exposed daily to city air, traffic, smoke and air conditioning.

How do I combine Vital Defense with the Lotion?

Cleanse first, then mist on Lotion Yon-Ka PS (dry skin) or PNG (normal to oily skin) and apply Vital Defense to skin that is still slightly damp.

Can I use the cream in the evening too?

Vital Defense is designed as a day cream for daytime protection. In the evening, a nourishing night formula from the Yon-Ka lines is the better choice.

Vital Defense forms a protective film that helps prevent fine particles, smoke and dust from settling on the skin. Antioxidants such as vitamin A (retinyl palmitate), vitamin C (ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate), vitamin E and ubiquinone help counter oxidative stress caused by free radicals, so the skin preserves its youthful appearance. Organic myrtle and moringa peptides strengthen the skin's natural defences against pollutants. Meanwhile glycerin, urea and squalane deliver intense hydration, comfort and suppleness, leaving the complexion visibly fresher and more alive.

In the morning, after cleansing and after Lotion Yon-Ka PS or PNG, apply a thin layer of Vital Defense to face and neck using light upward strokes. A pea-sized amount is enough. For extra care, mix 1-2 pumps of a booster into the cream: Hydra+, Nutri+, Lift+ or Défense+. Daily use gives optimal protection.

Skin feels comfortable, soft and well hydrated straight away, without a greasy finish. With daily use the complexion looks fresher and more even, and the skin better maintains its natural radiance and vitality, even after a long day in the city.
