Epigenetics, the study of how lifestyle and environment can influence gene expression, is now being utilized in skincare by brands like Rationale. The brand's founder, Richard Parker, explains that understanding your skin's genetics and making proactive epigenetic changes can lead to healthy, glowing skin. He emphasizes the importance of sun protection, stating that 80% of skin aging is caused by the sun and recommends a personalized skincare regimen that includes immune boosters, antioxidants, sunscreen, and DNA repair enzymes to address skin weaknesses and protect from sun damage.
