Why Wear Face Sunscreen Daily?

Wondering why you should consider wearing a face sunscreen daily? You’re at risk every single day, even when the UV is under 3. Also, news flash- the sun’s rays can penetrate windows! The most important reasons to wear an SPF 50 or SPF 30 sunscreen include:

1.    Protect skin from UVB rays

We’re sure you’re across this, but the main reason people wear sunscreen is to prevent the real nasty Ultraviolet b (UVB) rays from damaging the skin. UVB is responsible for sunburn and damage to the DNA in skin cells, which can lead to skin cancer. Of course sunscreen is only one part of overall sun safety, but it is a compelling one.

2.    Prevent fine lines and wrinkles

The sun is the single biggest cause of premature ageing! Wearing a sunscreen daily can help to prevent Ultraviolet A (UVA), the rays responsible for premature ageing like wrinkles, sunspots, fine lines and freckles, from developing.

3.    Enable skincare to work harder

Did you know that sunscreens can actually help your current skincare to work better? Ultra Violette make some of the best sunscreen on the market that actually help several actives like vitamin c, retinol and acids to become more effective when combined.

4.    Protect against blue light

Spending your day in front of the computer? Wearing an SPF is another way you can protect your skin from the harmful effects of blue light rays. It’s important to double check which kind of sunscreen you’re using however, as not all protect from these rays. Look out for formulas made using iron oxide.

When to add sunscreen to your routine?

Okay, so now you know you need to wear an SPF daily you might be wondering when to apply it? Here’s how you can slot it in easily.

1.    Cleanse

The basis of all good skincare routines; clean skin. Begin with your preferred cleanser from a gentle milk cleanser, a foaming cleanser, or an oil-based one, make sure to wash your skin morning and evening before applying your skincare products.

2.    Moisturiser
