Sun Safety 101: Wear Sunscreen Daily
As we enter Spring in full swing and approach Summer, it’s that time again to talk about sun safety. While we recommend daily sunscreen use year round, we especially want to emphasize it in the warmer months when exposure levels are higher. Warm weather equals more fun in the sun – but don’t forget to protect your skin. Your future self will thank you if you wear sunscreen daily.
Sun Damage Is The #1 Cause Of Premature Aging
Did you know that over exposing your skin to the sun year after year is actually the main contributor to an aging appearance? Even with the best skincare products and treatments, if you’re going without sunscreen, you’re just wasting time and money. It’s true that we lose collagen and elastin as we age, but protecting your skin from the sun can make the difference between looking great for your age and 10+ years older.
Wear Sunscreen To Protect Your Health
If vanity isn’t enough of a reason to wear sunscreen, how about your health? Skin cancer is the most common cancer among Americans, and it’s one of the most preventable. The tricky thing about sun damage is that it affects the deeper skin tissue first, slowly working its way to the surface. That means that the damage you did in the past 5-10 years may only be showing up now. What’s more, it could be cancerous. Be sure to have annual checks at your dermatologist and start wearing sunscreen daily now to prevent future damage.
