Sunscreen is vital to keeping your skin healthy. Sunscreen protects your skin from harmful UV rays, which can get up to a UV Index of 6 during Toronto summer. Because it protects your skin from UV rays, it lowers your risk of getting skin cancer. It also helps your skin avoid premature aging and helps you keep that young, healthy glow. The lack of burning also means that sunscreen helps you achieve and maintain an even skin tone.

Applying sunscreen is very important. Sunscreen should be worn by everyone, regardless of skin tone, time of year, or weather conditioners. It should also be applied year-round and not just during the summer months because, well, the sun is out all year long. Choosing not to wear sunscreen will lead to many short-term and long-term consequences. Some problems you may experience if you do not wear sunscreen include:

• Sunburn
• Sunspots
• Broken blood vessels
• Dark spots
• Fine lines
• Wrinkles
• Skin cancer

While there are several kinds of sunscreen, mineral sunscreen is your best option. Mineral sunscreen uses two main ingredients, titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, to create a physical barrier between your skin and the sun. It sits on top of your skin to reflect UV rays instead of penetrating your skin like chemical sunscreens. Because of this. mineral sunscreen is great for children or those with sensitive skin. If your skin is already damaged, visit us at Nulook Medspa in Toronto for sun damage treatment.

Sunscreen should be worn daily. Even if you are wearing makeup, always make sure to apply sunscreen first. Also consider investing in a tinted mineral sunscreen, which will provide coverage and protection.
