Skin irritation test / Skin tolerability test is a dermatological test for assessing the skin's tolerance for the product. Independent dermatologists examine the test subjects' skin for signs of irritation after application of the product. Dermatologists look for signs of irritation such as redness, swelling, bumps, blisters and skin damage. Based on the results, the product is classified as either non-irritating, slightly irritating, moderately irritating and highly irritating. All products from Dr.Ankerstjerne are classified as non-irritating.

The skin moisture study is a dermatological test to assess the moisturizing effect the product has on the skin. The skin's moisture level is measured using an instrument (Corneometer® CM 825) on a standardized area of ​​the skin that is the same for all test participants. The skin's moisture level is measured before application of the test product, and then 1, 3 and 5 hours after application of the test product. The effect is assessed by comparing the moisture level in the skin before application of the test product with the moisture level after 1, 3 and 5 hours. To get the most correct results possible, the test subjects must have clean skin, without skin care. Temperature and humidity in the surroundings are standardized during the test period. Corresponding moisture measurements are carried out on the opposite side of the test subject's body without the test product being applied, to ensure that factors other than the test product do not influence the effect being measured.

THE ANTI AGE KIT is suitable for all skin types and for all skin conditions, and is particularly well suited for normal, dry, combination and mature skin with visible signs of ageing, as well as for pigment spots, large pores, uneven skin surface and skin irritation conditions.

THE ANTI AGE KIT contains Superfood serum that contains vitamin A in the form of Retinyl Palmitate. Superfoods should not be used during pregnancy based on the precautionary principle.

THE SUN SET constitutes a complete skin care routine. In the morning, apply Superfood serum to cleansed skin, followed by Urban Protection daycream .

In the evening, clean your skin with Wash the day off facial cleanser . Wash is easily lathered on moistened skin. Rinse off with water. Finish with Anti-age night cream rich.

SUPERFOOD vitamin face gel is a multifunctional gel that can be used both as a serum and gel on the cheekbones and around the eyes. You use a small amount of product. The gel absorbs quickly into the skin and is light in consistency. If you need a richer product in the eye area, we do not have a specific eye cream, but all our face creams can be used over Superfood.

Whether you use Superfood or another eye cream, remember that the skin in the eye area is thinner than the skin on the rest of the face. An eye cream or gel should be applied in small amounts, and applied along the brow bone around the eye and not on the eyelid itself. The skin attracts the product (a bit like a sponge). When you apply the cream along the brow bone, you will avoid irritating the eye skin and you will not get product in the eye.

Yes. We recommend that you use a day cream with sun protection all year round, also in winter. The reason is that the UVA rays are so to speak constant all year round, they penetrate the cloud cover and car windows. UVA protection is therefore something to think about all year round. We recommend that you use a day cream with broad-spectrum UV protection all year round.

Broad-spectrum UV protection means that the product protects against both UVA and UVB rays.

SPF is the same as sun factor, and indicates protection against UVB rays.

SPF is a measure of how long the skin can be exposed to UV rays without turning red, compared to if you had no UV protection.

SPF is a mathematical formula that is not linear. The number in SPF shows the strength of the sun protective effect. Slightly simplified, you can say that SPF15 filters away approx. 93% of UVB rays, SPF30 approx. against 97% of UVB rays, while SPF50 filters out approx. against 98% of UVB rays.

A high sun factor means that a product has a protective effect with either SPF30 or SPF50. The Swedish Cancer Society always recommends using factor 30 or higher.

The sun protective effect decreases over time. You must repeat the application approx. every 2 hours if you stay in the sun. Remember that you must use enough product to achieve the protection indicated on the product. For the face and neck, it is recommended to use cream corresponding to the length of 2 fingers.

UV rays are electromagnetic waves that travel from the sun towards the earth. UV waves are divided according to wavelength. The wavelength has something to say in relation to where in the skin the UV rays hit and therefore which structures in the skin are affected.

UVB rays are what make the skin brown and sunburned. These are strongest in summer and in cloudless weather. Protection against UVB rays is indicated with SPF.

UVA rays are mainly the cause of age-related changes in the skin. The UVA rays are so to speak constant all year round. They penetrate the cloud layer and windows.

UVA protection is indicated with the UVA mark - UVA with a circle around it or with the indication UVA-PF.

The requirements for labeling UV protection are the same for sunscreen and day cream with sun protection. That is is a product marked with SPF30, it must have passed the same tests, and satisfy the same requirements for UV protection, regardless of whether it is a sunscreen or a day cream with sun protection.

Remember that all products with UV protection (both sunscreens and day creams with sun protection) must be applied in sufficient quantity and frequently enough to have the specified UV protection.

Water and sweat reduce the sun protective effect. If you are going to the beach or working out in the sun, you should therefore use a sunscreen that is waterproof instead of a non-waterproof day cream with sun protection factor.

All the products in THE SUN SET have been examined in clinical studies and found to be well suited for people with sensitive skin.

THE SUN SET contains SUPERFOOD serum that contains vitamin A in the form of Retinyl Palmitate. If you are pregnant, you should avoid using SUPERFOOD. The remaining products are safe to use for pregnant women.

It is safe to use THE SUN SET when you are breastfeeding.
