Protection – From the Sun!

It is ESSENTIAL my dears to protect our skin from UV rays. There are 2 types of UV Rays that we need to be aware of.

To put simply:

  • UVA Rays penetrate the skin deeply and accelerates skin ageing, increases sebum secretion and hyperpigmentation. These harmful rays are present even if it’s a cloudy day.
  • UVB Rays stimulate tanning and mainly responsible for sunburn.

Having understood this, it is therefore important to find a sunscreen that protects you from both – at least, that’s my criteria!

My favourite (and currently using) is the UV PRO SECURE SPF50 PA+++ PORCELAIN by VICHY.

Why I use it:

  • Well-balanced anti UVA+UVB filtering system
  • Has Vitamin E (helps to slow down the ageing process)
  • Comes in a porcelain version (tinted) which helps to even out skin tones
  • Paraben, oil and fragrance-free
  • Doesn’t clog my pores and is penetrates fast to a matt finish
  • Great as a makeup base!

P.s.: In case you want to know, it’s about $48 for a 30ml tube.

    Does this sunblock leave a white cast on the face?
