The sun is one of our most powerful resources, yet...protecting your skin from the sun's ultraviolet (UV) radiation is important for the health of our skin. | I love sharing hair care advice as well as make-up and lashes but I’m an educator for the woman who desires head-to-toe health and that includes the skin she’s in! So connect with me on this very important topic. The weather is changing and we’ve had a long hard winter. Most of us can’t wait to feel the sun on our bodies …..but before you lift your face to the sky and start soaking up the rays, please take my recommendation and remember to apply sun screen! |
The relationship between exposure to the sun and skin cancer, premature skin aging and eye damage has been well documented, but did you know that without sun screen, existing scars and blemishes can appear darker and more pronounced?
When you have questions about the best sun screen product for your individual skin type I’m standing by to give you a complimentary consultation. We can have a discussion about some of the many levels of sunscreen products because all products are not for all skin types.
My advice in general is to seek out sunscreen products with a SPH of 15. Depending on the length of time you expect to be exposed to direct sunlight. For example, SPF 15 will provide me with approximately 150 minutes in the sun without burning.
I have more info about deciding how to choose the correct SPH level for your lifestyle. We can also talk about the many products that can give you protection, including lotions , creams, and sprays….we’ll also explore the water proof formulas which are excellent for swimmers and beach goers and amusement park lovers! We can also talk about the best choices for kids!
