Anti-Aging Benefits

With the golden glow of a tan, either acquired naturally or in a tanning bed, comes the damage that pre-maturely ages skin. Wrinkles, sagging and age spots are the most common signs of sun damage.A 2013 study in Australia found that subjects who applied sunscreen everyday had noticeably smoother and more resilient skin.

Smooth Canvas

A nice base coat of sunscreen can work as a smoothing primer before makeup application. In addition to keeping the skin visibly healthier in the present moment, it can work with your makeup to help create a flawless look.

Day-to-Day Skin Health

While it is important to prevent damage for the sake of your future skin, the health of your skin at the present moment is also of utmost importance. Sunburn can cause redness, itchiness, pain, irritability and peeling; all of which can interfere with your ability to pull of a flawless look.

More Value from Treatments

Skin health routines that involve facials, exfoliation, lasers or other treatments are wonderful and beneficial ways to maintain the health of your skin but these treatments are fighting an uphill battle if the skin is continuously being damaged by sun exposure. To get more bang for your buck and return on your treatments, protect your skin! Many treatments can cause sensitivity to sun after, meaning that you could undo all of the good work you?ve just done for your skin by exposing it to ultraviolet rays.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
