⏱️ The Real SPF Time

You apply SPF 30 or 50 every morning, but do you know how many minutes of protection you’re really getting?

Most people overestimate—and that can be dangerous.

It’s time to learn the SPF Math.

We break down the confusing science behind the Sun Protection Factor (SPF).

The number isn't a random rating; it's a multiplier. We show you the simple formula based on your unique skin type (how long your skin takes to burn naturally) to calculate your precise protection time. SPF 50 doesn't mean all day—it means X times your burn time!

Feel confident and truly safe in the sun by knowing your exact protection window.

Understand the simple factor that determines your skin's resilience, and learn why reapplication is non-negotiable (it’s those elements, not the timer!).

Protect yourself properly!

💔 The Pigment Leak

The "Melanin Factory" is Broken: Why UV Light Causes Uneven Brown Patches

Do you have frustrating brown patches or sunspots that won't disappear? It's not just surface damage—it’s a crisis inside your skin's pigment cells.

We reveal the microscopic truth: UV light damages the melanocyte (the pigment factory) and the surrounding keratinocytes. This damage literally punches holes in the cells, causing the pigment to "leak" into the surrounding tissue, leaving a visible "trail of paint" behind.

Stop fighting the symptoms and treat the source! Understand exactly how your skin is being damaged so you can use the right defense to prevent this pigment leakage and achieve the even, clear skin you deserve.

Don't let UV light destroy your skin's even tone!

💔 UV's Hidden Danger

Did you know UV light turns your skin into a battleground? The sun's rays aren't just tanning—they're creating tiny, unstable free radicals, the "little thieves."

We break down the science: UV light breaks the molecular bonds in your DNA. Free radicals then sn**ch essential components from healthy cells to stabilize themselves, destroying your skin's blueprint for creating vital proteins. This is the root of aging and damage.

Stop the invisible attack! Protect your DNA, preserve your skin's blueprint, and maintain the essential proteins that keep you healthy and youthful. Learn how to defeat the free radicals and safeguard your skin's future.

Don't let the sun steal your skin's health!

Unregulated Aesthetics Industry: Shocking Truths Uncovered

This industry is not regulated, which is bizarre. Absolutely bizarre. And you know what the really worrying thing is? Just yesterday, I was talking to somebody who is also in the medical profession. And do you know what he said? He said, 'Yeah, I'm thinking of doing aesthetics. I mean, I'm going to start with Botox, which is actually prescribed. So Botox, not everybody can do; it's prescribed because it's easy and there's less risks than filler.' Let that sink in. The one that is more regulated or has any regulation at all is the one that medics don't worry about. The one that has no regulation. I guarantee you every single medical professional who goes to the training, that's the one. Because it's not classified as a device, is that correct? The word is device. It's classified as a medical device, either medicines and health regulatory authority, MHRA. But it's the one that can do permanent damage. You know those things you see on social media where somebody has lost consciousness part of their An influencer doing Brazilian butt lifts. He killed a mother of five. That's crazy. How can you not have the regulations? That is appalling.

Making the most of the sun. So I wanted to sit out in the sun. Only, I've had a peel. But let that not stop me. I put on the hat and was outside anyway.

I am normally quite conscious about protecting my skin anyway, ever since having chemo in 2011. I have used SPF50 since and have a collection of sun hats. But, it's also good to catch a few rays for that Vit D. To be honest, I do have to have regular vitamin D injections, because what I make is not enough for what I need, and with my digestive system, I don't absorb enough to meet my needs.

But still, it feels good to warm those joints, and
the sun makes me feel happy - all that serotonin really does the job.

Enjoy the weather, and take benefit from it, in a safe manner 🌞

One of the commonest concerns of those wanting to transform their skin is about how long it will take and whether they can keep it up.

My advice is to make a start, and it will soon become a part of your routine. I don't think anyone could have been as wild as me when it came to not looking after your skin. So basically, up until I was right into my mid twenties, I would wash my face with whatever was available: that was normally handwash...

It took a drastic life change to get me on my first skincare product. The product was SPF50, and the change was actually getting super sun-sensitive as a complication of chemo.

Now, having a routine is totally ingrained in me, and it is an essential part of my routine. And it really doesn't take very long. The great thing is, you dont have to worry about making sure it lasts a certain time, like when you have to brush your teeth for a minimum of 2 mins.

With any routine, you have to make sure it fits your lifestyle and existing routine, and so flexibility is essential.

My only problem now is that I will sometimes do it on autopilot, so as I did today, I remember starting the routine, but I can not remember if I finished it! (Kind of like when you lose count during your prayers 😬)

How do you guys fare when it comes not going on autopilot with your routines, and how do you prevent forgetting what you have done?
