AGR+E PMLE Relief, Sized for Your Carry-On
If your skin reacts with itchy red bumps or rashes after sun exposure, even with sunscreen on, a sunny trip can feel like something to get through rather than enjoy. AGR+E Travel Kits bring your routine along, with or without the Overnight, in bottles that fit the 100 mL (3.4 fl oz) carry-on liquid limit in Canada and the US.
A lost or delayed suitcase is an inconvenience for most travellers. For sun-sensitive skin, it can mean the first days of a long-awaited vacation spent hiding from the sun. Many Shirudo customers have shared that they used to decant AGR+E into small travel bottles, just to make sure it never left their side. This kit takes care of that. Each bottle fits the 100 mL (3.4 fl oz) carry-on liquid limit, so Daily can stay in your carry-on from takeoff to arrival. If your luggage goes missing, your routine doesn’t.

Who Is This For?
Shirudo AGR+E PMLE Relief Lotion is designed for anyone who experiences:
✓ Polymorphous light eruption (PMLE) or polymorphic light eruption
✓ Sun allergy, sun poisoning, or sun rash symptoms

✓ Spring and early summer skin sensitivity to UV
✓ UV-triggered inflammation despite using sunscreen
✓ Sun-sensitive skin that needs daily support
How Alpha-Glucosylrutin Works
PMLE is not caused by sunburn—it's a delayed immune reaction to UV exposure, primarily UVA rays. When UV light penetrates the skin, it creates oxidative stress that can trigger an inflammatory immune response in PMLE-prone individuals.
Alpha-glucosylrutin (AGR) is a stabilized form of rutin, a flavonoid antioxidant derived from plants. Research shows that AGR helps reduce UV-induced oxidative stress and supports the skin's natural response to sun exposure. Vitamin E provides complementary antioxidant support to help protect skin cells from UV-induced damage.
Unlike supplements that require weeks of daily use or phototherapy protocols that demand extensive time commitments, this topical formula can be applied just 15 minutes before sun exposure.

Shirudo AGR+E is among the most effective and practical PMLE solutions available
especially compared with strategies that require weeks of preparation or lifestyle changes that many people simply can’t maintain. For many PMLE sufferers, Shirudo AGR+E is the difference between managing PMLE in theory vs actually living normally in the sun.

FAQs
What is polymorphous light eruption (PMLE)?
Polymorphous light eruption (PMLE) is a delayed immune reaction of the skin to ultraviolet exposure, often appearing as an itchy rash after sun exposure.
How does alpha-glucosylrutin support sun-sensitive skin?
Alpha-glucosylrutin is an antioxidant flavonoid that helps reduce UV-induced oxidative stress and supports the skin’s response to sun exposure.
Do I need to start using this weeks before sun exposure?
No. This topical formula is designed for daily use and can be applied during periods of sun exposure without requiring long pre-treatment.
Is this set suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes. The AGR+E Day & Night Set is formulated for sensitive and reactive skin and is non-photosensitizing.
Is this product available in the USA and Canada?
Yes. The AGR+E Day & Night Set is available for purchase and shipping within the United States and Canada.
Clinical Evidence behind AGR+E
Why Alpha-Glucosylrutin & Vitamin E for PMLE?
Multiple peer-reviewed studies published in dermatology journals demonstrate that topical alpha-glucosylrutin combined with vitamin E significantly outperforms sunscreen alone in supporting PMLE-prone skin.
In randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies:
- Only 1 patient out of 30 (3.3%) developed PMLE when using AGR + vitamin E formulation
- 62.1% developed PMLE with placebo
- 41.3% developed PMLE with sunscreen alone
This research demonstrates that alpha-glucosylrutin provides benefits beyond standard sun protection by targeting the oxidative mechanisms that trigger PMLE reactions.
Clinical evidence under real solar exposure
Studies by Jeanmougin et Al on PMLE sufferers under real solar exposure condition (Spring and Summer) reveal global efficacy of 80%. PMLE sufferers applied this formulation every 2 hours of sun exposure.
Here is what the study revealed:
- 67.3% experienced no eruptions at all
- 19.2% had only minor eruptions
- 13.5% had severe eruptions
A combination of Alpha-glucosylrutin , Vitamin E and a broad-spectrum sunscreen is, by far, the best natural approach when dealing with Polymorphous Light Eruption or PMLE.
