The one skincare product you can't live without!
While many of you wear it during the summer months, here’s the reality: you’ve got to wear sunscreen every day of the year, come rain or shine. With COVID-19 on our minds, it may be easy to forget about another potential danger: the sun. Though summer is coming to an end, outdoor activities abound as we enter Autumn that may include more time in the sun. It is important to note that, even in cooler months, it takes just 15 minutes for the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays to damage your skin, increasing your chances of wrinkles and age spots. The solution—wear sunscreen and protective clothing and seek shade—is something everyone has likely heard before. Still, it never hurts to be reminded of its importance, or to know a little more about it. Not sure exactly what to look out for when selecting a sunscreen? We’ve got you covered. Broad spectrum: Sunscreens should be labeled as broad spectrum, which means the product will shield the skin against UVA and UVB rays. Water resistant: This indicates that the product will protect the skin in water for a specified duration of time. Sun protection factor (SPF): This numerical factor provides information on the level of protection provided. A minimum of SPF 15 or 30 is recommended for everyday wear. When in the sun, it’s important to reapply sunscreen to exposed areas every 90 to 120 minutes, or as the product label indicates. Active ingredients: Note whether the active ingredients are chemical or physical sunscreens. Physical sunscreens most commonly contain titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, which provide a physical barrier on the skin that reflect dangerous UV rays. Chemical sunscreens contain chemicals, which protect the skin by interacting with and absorbing ultraviolet energy. Both are effective, but chemical sunscreens may have a higher chance of producing skin irritation or allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. Now that you know what to look for, below are 4 terrific sunscreen products available on Deluxe Shop which suit a range of skin types! Dr Grandel SP UV Perfection 50 Intelligent Sun Protection SPF 50 (high). Sun protection SPF 50 as a light serum. Protects against UVA and UVB radiation. RAD Mineral Sunscreen SPF 15 Environ RAD Shield Mineral Sunscreen SPF 15 is a lightweight, cosmetically elegant formulation that works hard with powerful physical sun reflectors, Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide, to protect the skin from harmful UV rays. QMS CELLULAR SUN SHIELD SPF 50+ PA++++ Sunscreen Lotion 30ml A powerful formulation with balanced UVA/UVB sun protection and an innovative DNA-repair complex. The lightweight texture of Cellular Sun Shield SPF50+ is designed to ensure easy absorption and protect against premature signs of skin aging caused by sun exposure.

What causes bags under the eyes? - Weak skin tissue around your eyes may result in water retention in the skin. - Sleeping on a pillow with your face downwards contributes to the issue. - Eczema and other seasonal allergies also cause dark and puffy eyes. Seasonal allergies cause the release of histamine that results in inflammation in blood vessels. - Those who overindulge in intake of alcohol, smoking and drugs, normally have puffy and saggy eyes. - Genetics are also a cause of eye bags and puffiness. - As we age our skin loses elasticity and thins, making veins more visible. - Those who stay up late in the night and sleep less, are more prone to dark circles.
