Step 4: Apply like a pro.

Most of us don’t follow these pro tips. But does that even matter?

☝🏼Actually, yes! We’re not actually getting the amount of SPF that the label indicates. Sunscreen testing is done following the above protocols, so if we under-apply, more UV is reaching the skin than tested. Oof.

So what if we can’t adhere to those protocols?

💡 Choose a higher SPF! You won’t need the full amount of that higher SPF sunscreen either, but at least you’ll get closer to the original SPF you were intending on!

Step 3: Choose your formulation.

Have you ever gotten that grey or white cast after applying sunscreen? What about stingy watering eyes after sunscreen + sweat? Or worse yet, that greasy finish you can’t wipe off? 🤦🏻‍♀️

It’s impressive how diverse & sophisticated sunscreen formulations have become now, so you never need to experience those unfortunate sunscreen cringe moments anymore!

tinted primer | tinted built in powder brushes | pigmented lip balm | tinted powder compacts | non-comedogenic | +Vit C, B3, E | +AHA/BHA | +HA

Eliminate your sunscreen rate limiting step & try a formulation that suits your lifestyle!👷🏻‍♀️👩🏻‍🌾👨🏿‍🏭👨🏻‍🚒

Step 2: Choose SPF level.

SPF = sun protection factor, ie. how much more protection you’re getting using that sunscreen compared with no sunscreen at all.

Health Canada recommends using SPF 30 or higher.

Step 1: Choose your type.

🥊 Stop allowing UV to beat up on your skin & allowing your skin’s melanin (pigment cells) to absorb UV oxidation.

🏋🏻‍♀️ Let sunscreen do the heavy lifting.

Two types of sunscreen exist: Physical & Chemical

🙅🏻‍♀️ Physical sunscreens literally block & reflect sunscreen from penetrating the skin.

🧽 Chemical sunscreens act as a substitute for melanin & absorb UV oxidation.

Read the sunscreen label for the ingredients to check if it’s physical, chemical or both.

🗯 We’ll be discussing pros & cons of each & how to choose the sunscreen suitable for you during our virtual Skin Science Talk on Sept 27 - link in bio to register!

✔️ What else should we be looking for on sunscreen labels? Find out tomorrow!

👩🏻‍⚕️: Did you know melanin (pigment) is our skin’s natural sunscreen?

🙋🏽‍♂️: So why bother with sunscreen then?

👩🏻‍🏫: Why allow your skin’s melanin to absorb UV & the resulting oxidation (damage) when sunscreen can do or prevent that?

Absorbing UV causes:
☝🏼Damage to DNA (skin cancer)
✌🏼Collagen (wrinkles)
🤟🏼Stimulates more melanin production (sun spots & melasma)

🖐🏼 Stop allowing UV to beat up on your skin.

👈🏼 Can you guess if it’s chemical vs. physical sunscreen that absorbs vs. deflects UV rays?

👉🏼 Find out which does which & how tomorrow.
