Sun Protection

The best beauty tip anyone can ever give you is to wear an SPF sunscreen every day, even when it is grey and cloudy outside as the damaging UVA and UVB rays can penetrate cloud and glass. If you do nothing else in your skincare regime, wearing sun protection will have a dramatic effect on how you age, but more importantly can protect you from skin cancer. If you are confused about what factor you should be wearing, how much to apply and how often to apply it, you are not alone. Experts advise wearing an SPF of at least 15 every day to protect yourself from the harmful UVA and UVB rays. It is important to choose a sunscreen that protects against both as they can both damage your skin. There are many different types of sunscreen out there. A skincare specialist will be able to advise you on what are the best products to use. Buying a good sunscreen does not have to cost the earth, SPFs can cost anywhere between £5 and £50.
