The importance of sun protection cannot be overstated! The reason sunscreen is important is that the number one cause of skin aging and damage is sun exposure. Sun protection is the most important skin care product that you can use every day and multiple times throughout the day. Sun exposure causes wrinkles and uneven pigmentation by damaging the dermis of the skin and is also blamed for skin and lip cancers.
The first and most important defense against wrinkles is the daily use of sunscreen with SPF 15 or higher. It can be in your foundation or moisturizer and will help prevent new wrinkles from developing and existing ones from deepening. In general, people do not understand the importance of sun protection throughout the year, not just on sunny or bright days. Sun protection is not just for the summer months! To prevent aging caused by UV rays, sunscreen should be worn every day of the year, even if it’s a cloudy day or you don’t even plan to go outside. Sunscreens and sunblocks, although the names are used frequently, there is a difference. They use different chemicals, and those chemicals work in different ways, so different terms are used.
Most people don’t apply enough sunscreen: A dermatological study found that sunscreen users only applied 50 percent of the recommended amount, thus receiving only 50 percent of SPF protection. Sunscreen should be the last product applied to the skin. Layering other skincare products on top of sunscreen will dilute its effectiveness. If you use a non-SPF foundation over your SPF, make sure you don’t rub it in too much, or you’ll also decrease sun protection. If your foundation is your SPF, it should be applied liberally. The importance of sunscreen is throughout the year, every day.
