How to Protect Your Skin From Pollution

Your skin is an adaptive whole-body protection organ that is constantly fending off attacks from all angles.

This stress ages your skin in many ways, including increasing inflammation, slowing healing, and causing cancer.

Do air purifiers remove carbon dioxide?

No. They do not remove carbon dioxide (CO2). Almost all air purifiers are designed to capture some combination of particles and toxic gasses, but CO2 can’t be captured by the same filters that capture other gaseous air pollution. Only ventilation removes CO2.
