Why Is Sunscreen Super Essential?
Every dermatologist will advise on sunscreen application. Using a sunblock or sunscreen is the foundation of your skincare routine. Amongst many reasons why these creams are so important, here are some of you would want to know:
Lowers Risk Of Skin Cancer
Daily sunscreen use significantly lowers the risk of skin cancer. Periodic sunscreen users have less chance of invasive melanomas as compared to people who do not use sunscreen
Prevents Signs Of Ageing
Ultraviolet rays can cause photoageing, leading to fine lines, and discoloration. Sunscreen is the best way to fight these signs of ageing.
Combats Collagen Breakdown
Sunscreen is essential to protect against the effects of other anti-aging products as well as all skin care products that may help to enhance collagen production and increase elasticity, both vital for delaying ageing.
Reduces Sun Damage
Sunspots and skin discolorations are largely caused by sun exposure. Using sunscreen is crucial especially when using other products like retinol for anti-aging benefits.
Saves Skin From Sun Burns
Skin care products with alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) can increase skin sensitivity to UV light. Sunscreen protects exfoliated skin, especially if you use these products during the day or even at night.
