TL;DR: Blue light from screens can accelerate skin aging, weaken the skin barrier, and cause hyperpigmentation. Marine Glo is the only clinically tested collagen supplement that protects both skin and eyes from blue light damage while improving hydration, elasticity, and overall glow.
We all know the toll endless screen time can take on our eyes and energy levels — but what about our skin? According to a recent partner feature in The Cut, blue light exposure (the same light that comes from our phones, laptops, and TVs) is emerging as a major culprit behind premature aging, hyperpigmentation, and skin barrier damage.
THE BLUE LIGHT PROBLEM
Blue light makes up about one-third of all visible light, and while avoiding it completely is nearly impossible, its impact on skin health is significant:
- Premature Aging – Blue light can damage DNA inside skin cells, speeding up collagen breakdown and leading to wrinkles, fine lines, and loss of elasticity.
- Skin Barrier Damage – Exposure can make it harder for skin to retain hydration and fight oxidative stress, leaving it more vulnerable to environmental aggressors.
- Hyperpigmentation – Long-term blue light exposure can trigger melanin imbalances, resulting in dark spots, melasma, and uneven skin tone.
THE MARINE GLO SOLUTION
The Cut article highlights a new clinically tested innovation: Nature’s Sunshine Marine Glo. Unlike typical collagen supplements, Marine Glo is the first to offer dual benefits for both skin and eye health, helping to:
- Protect against blue light damage
- Support collagen and elasticity
- Reduce wrinkles and fine lines
- Improve skin hydration and barrier strength
- Promote even skin tone with antioxidant-rich lutein and vitamin C
At the heart of Marine Glo is FloraGLO® Lutein, a powerful plant-based carotenoid derived from marigold flowers. Backed by research, lutein helps filter blue light while supporting long-term skin resilience. Combined with collagen and other essential nutrients, Marine Glo helps your body fight back against the digital stress of modern life.
