With the rapid changes in the climate due to global warming, there really is no wrong or too early prescription for anti-aging skin care and sun protection products.
Countless studies and research have proven the ill effects of the sun’s ultraviolet radiation. Results of these studies show that these harmful rays not only accelerate the aging process with the early onset of wrinkles and age spots, but it has also been proven to cause skin cancer; highlighted by the drastic rise in the number of patients afflicted with this particular cancer in recent years.
The breakdown of collagen in our skin has been traced back to the sun’s UV rays. That is why skin care professionals are adamant in increasing public awareness about the timely and proper utilization of sun protection gears, especially when a trip to the beach is in your weekend itinerary.
The most recommended and most effective anti-aging skin care routine, though, is staying away from the sun. But if you really have to, do use all means of sun protection, like cosmetics with built-in sunscreen protection formula (SPF) of at least 15. The higher the SPF numbers though, the better protection it will provide, like the protection Kinerase Daily Defense Cream with SPF 30 offers. It’s a moisturizing, anti-aging treatment with SPF 30 formula that helps fade fine lines, hydrates the skin, and protect it from the sun’s harmful UV rays all at the same time. With it, also use wide-brimmed hat or umbrella, tightly-knitted clothes that cover both the arms and legs, and a dark pair of sunglasses when going out into the sun, especially between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when the heat is most intense.
More than anytime, use of sun protection is being promoted and encouraged. Even clothing companies have started making UPF certified clothes: clothes that ensure maximum sun protection but are breathable and easy-to-wear especially during the hot summer months.
In light of this topic, the less skin you bare to the sun, the better and safer it is for your skin. So think twice before baring yourself out in the open.
