Sun Protection Skin Care Products

Having fun in the sun is something that we can all enjoy, as long as we look after our skin. Sun protection is a vital part of any summertime skin routine; however, this can also apply in the wintertime, especially when skiing. Over the past decade, sun protection and awareness has been heightened due to the increase in the number of skin cancer cases. Developed knowledge of UVA and UVB rays, plus the damaging effects of free radicals on the skin, has also boosted the need for the incorporation of sun protection within our skin care routines.

UVA and UVB rays from the sun have a withering effect on facial skin. The creation of free radicals erodes and destroys skin cells. Normally hydrated skin will be drained of moisture due to sun damage and once skin is burnt by the sun, and it may never be the same again. Burnt skin ages quicker than facial skin that employs effective sun protection. Fine lines and wrinkles can appear prematurely and skin can become visually sallow. This is due the loss of collagen, which is a protein within the skin that maintains its elasticity and vitality.
