Sunscreens

IF there’s one product that you should be in your skincare regimen, and is often the most overlooked, it’s sunscreen. This is a shame since it is one of the best ways to protect your skin from environmental damages, namely, from the sun. Plus, it’s one product that takes the least amount of effort; you just have to smear some on and you’re good to go. 

When it comes to sunscreen, there’s a common thought that you only need to where it when it’s sunny out, summer, or if you’re outside for long periods of time. This is part of the reasoning why many of us skip over it. The thing is though, that’s not at all true. The two main types of ultraviolet rays -- those pesky rays that come from the sun -- don’t turn off just because there are some clouds or chills here on earth. Actually, they’re strong all year long, and you need to be covered.

Not sure what UVA and UVB rays are and why you should protect yourself from them? Allow us to quickly break them down for you. 

UVA rays are the most dangerous. These rays penetrate the skin more deeply than UVB rays and are responsible for wrinkles from photodamage as well as most types of skin cancers. Not only can they cause more damage, there are far more of them than their counterpart. Which means you should look for a sunscreen that protects against not only UVB but UVA too. 

UVB rays, on the other hand, are known for their more superficial level of damage. These are the rays that cause nasty sunburns. Which is still a serious manner for your skin’s complexion, so it’s important to protect against these rays too.
