Spring Skin Sun Protection
Spring has finally sprung. People are itching to get out into the yard. We’ll review some sun protection tips today so you’ll look fabulous for your age tomorrow.
Take shade breaks. I’m not suggesting you live in the basement. Do, however, take short breaks from your face, neck and upper chest being in full sunlight – even if you’re wearing sunscreen. Your collagen will thank you down the road.
Use vitamin C. Eat it. Wear it in a skincare product at bed time. Vitamin C promotes collagen production and undoes sun damage.
Check your skincare products for glycolic acid or alpha hydroxy acids. If you suspect any of your products have this potent exfoliator, cut back on them. Thinning the skin can cause rebound pigmentation problems.
