Your New Skincare Must-Have: SPF Formal tone SPF, or Sun Protection Factor, is an essential addition to your skincare routine. Remember lathering up with tanning oil that had little to no SPF in hopes of achieving the perfect tan? Well, those days are over. Let me reintroduce you to your new best friend: SPF.
A must-have that you can easily sneak into your daily skincare routine. Many think that SPF is only
necessary during the summer or on sunny days, but SPF should be used every day. UV rays can penetrate through clouds, making sun protection necessary year-round.
Why Should I Apply Every Day?
Sunscreen has many benefits including:
· Protecting your skin from harmful UV rays
· Preventing signs of aging
· Creating an even skin tone
· Reducing the risk of skin cancer
UV rays can cause skin cancer, wrinkles, uneven skin tone and more. Using a zinc-based sunscreen SPF 50 or higher will help protect your skin from harmful rays and keep your complexion youthful and radiant.
Will Using Sunscreen Daily Affect the Performance of My Other Products?
Sunscreen can be easily incorporated into your daily skincare routine. If anything, sunscreen enhances the performance of other products by offering protection from the sun.
Many people also incorporate retinoids into their skincare routines. When using retinoids, your skin can become even more sensitive to the sun. Using sunscreen and reapplying often is crucial.
This Sounds Great, but I Hate the Feeling of Greasy Sunscreen
You’re in luck! Sunscreen is no longer just white, thick goop your mom used to chase you with at the beach. Sunscreen now comes in many non-greasy varieties.
