It doesn’t matter what the weather is; it could be cold, non-sunny, or hot with strong sun rays. It will stiff damage your skin, especially for oily skin, by generating more and more oil content on the face.

Using sunscreen for oily skin and non-oily, all skin types is INDEED important. As it create a shield on your face against UVA and UVB rays. Also, some SUNSCREEN SPF 50 offers non sticky / non oily feel by controlling the discharge of oily content from your skin pores. There is many more reason of wearing sunscreen:

THE IRREVERSIBLE EFFECTS OF THE SUN ON YOUR SKIN

Among all the beauty products that you can buy, sunscreen is arguably the best.

It is both a health product and cosmetic product as it helps prevent skin cancer and delays the onset of wrinkles.

And it is affordable!

What do you notice what you see in a 30-40-year-old person photo?

In the above photo, you can see that the right part of his face is completely wrinkled, while the left is much smoother.

So what did this man do to make one part of his face appear 20 years younger than the other?

For 31 years, he spent 6 hours a day with the left side of his face a few inches from a window… without ever putting on sun protection.

This photo confirms what science has shown: the sun accelerates skin aging.

  • It thickens your epidermis, causes skin dryness and loss of elasticity.
  • It promotes the formation of fine lines and wrinkles.
  • It is also the cause of dark spots, dilation of vessels, and reduction of collagen. You can increase collagen production in many ways like Hyaluronic acid and vitamin c serum.
APPEARANCES CAN BE DECEIVING

While many of you do put on sunscreen during the summer months, in reality, you should be wearing it every day of the year - rain or shine, sunny or non sunny.

Just as the sun's rays seem invisible when there are clouds, don't imagine that your skin is damaged by UV rays only if you have sunburned.

But with age, these spots will enlarge and turn brown, eventually resembling the infamous brown spots.

So why not take 15 seconds every morning to apply sunscreen. A good water resistant and broad spectrum Sunscreen for oily skin creates a full protection screen against UV rays.

DON'T TRUST CLOUD

We tend - wrongly - to think that if there are clouds, we cannot be touched by the sun's rays. It's wrong. It is a very common mistake, but it can have serious consequences.

First, you should know that clouds allow between 80 and 95% of ultraviolet rays to pass. Therefore, during the winter months, it is necessary to always protect yourself, even on days when the sky is clear, and the most send the sun is shining, and on days when there is little light in gray.

The worst hours to expose yourself

As in summer, we do not recommend exposing yourself too much to the sun between 12 noon and 2 p.m. These are also the times in winter when the sun is strongest and when it can cause the most damage.

RISK OF SUN EXPOSURE RISK 1 - Aging of the skin

If they make us tan, the sun's rays can also seriously damage our skin tone. They are starting with premature ageing of the epidermis. The skin will thicken and lose elasticity. Wrinkles can then deepen more quickly.

RISK 2 - Photosensitization

Some drug treatments are photosensitizing, meaning they can cause an allergy-like reaction to the sun.

In this case, if you follow this type of treatment and expose yourself to the sun without protection, your skin could react and develop, for example, patches or dark spots.

In this second case, they often do not go away completely. Photosynthesis treatment is generally prescribed in winter to limit the risk, so you need to continue to protect yourself.

RISK 3 - Skin cancers

Among the most serious skin cancers, melanoma accounts for about 15,000 cases. Therefore, it is essential to protect your skin from the sun, in particular moles that can develop into cancer.

HOW TO PROTECT YOUR SKIN?

Just like in summer, it is quite possible to protect your skin from the sun's aggressions in winter. However, there are a few good things to know that are easy to apply.

Protection index in town

For people moving into the city, an index of 15 will be sufficient. The buildings and trees that are often present provide enough shade and protection. In addition, an index of 15 stops about 92% of UVB rays, enough to prevent burns and sunburns.

There are many sun care and sun protection products that you can apply to your skin for protection.

Sunscreen for oily skin

Depending on the situation, Sunscreen for oily skin may be necessary, even in winter OR summer. It is because it blocks maximum UV rays, especially when in the mountains or with sensitive skin.

If you live in the city or go outdoors a little during the day, a moisturizer with UV protection SPF 50 or SPF 30 will be sufficient. In addition, there are tinted creams that will protect you while giving you a healthy glow.
