Shiseido Reveals Impact of Digital Fatigue on the Skin

20 April 2021

Shiseido Company, Limited (“Shiseido”) has revealed that digital fatigue*1 not only increases physical and mental fatigue but also changes skin conditions such as deterioration of skin barrier function, irregularity in corneocytes, and increased oxidative damage factor.
