Being outside, breathing in the fresh air, and relaxing in the midday sun isn't a healthful pastime, believe it or not. Those warm, rejuvenating rays can trigger accelerated ageing and lasting damage on a cellular level. This is only possible if you forget to apply sunscreen lotion.

This straightforward yet effective device keeps you secure so you can appreciate nature and live your most exciting life. If you don't include sunscreen in your regular beauty routine, you're probably doing something wrong. UV radiation is prevalent and can damage the skin on a hot summer day and when the temperature is cool or cloud cover.

Using sunscreen with a proper quantity of SPF is one of the most crucial aspects of any healthy skincare routine. Thus, using a sunscreen lotion should be a year-round preventive health measure.

Why You Should Always Wear Sunscreen

● Protect from UV Rays

The ozone layer's loss has raised our risk of sunburn from dangerous UV rays. Sunscreen blocks these photons, reducing the risk of sunburn significantly. Look for products with an SPF of 30), such as those from Yutika Naturals, and use them daily.

● Prevent Premature Skin Aging

Sun damage from UV rays causes photoaging of the skin, characterized by a thick, leathery look, discolouration, and a breakdown of collagen, which contributes to lines, sagging and wrinkles.

● Reduce the Signs of Aging

Make sunscreen your friend if you want to reduce the signs of ageing. Without protection, going out in the sun can harm your skin's collagen and connective fibres, causing it to lose suppleness and wrinkle.

● Limit the Appearance of Sunspots

Sunspots (also called "age spots" or "liver spots") are caused by exposure to the sun's UV radiation, and they contribute to the appearance of ageing.

● Prevent Sunburn

A painful burn can happen from too much sun exposure or exposure to UV rays (such as tanning beds) without protection, so it's essential to wear sunscreen every day, even on gloomy days.

● Reduce Your Risk of Skin Cancer

Sunscreen protects your skin and reduces your risk of developing skin cancer and skin pre-cancers. Applying SPF in conjunction with other sun protection behaviour reduces the harmful effects of sun exposure.

● Prevent Wrinkles & Fine Lines

Sunscreen is one of the most potent preventative formulas for wrinkles and fine lines. Long-term exposure to UVA radiation causes your skin to age prematurely, resulting in the loss of collagen and suppleness.

How To Choose The Right Sunscreen?

1. Consider SPF (Sun Protection Factor)

The SPF of sunscreen measures how much UVB light it can block. Most physicians advocate applying an SPF of at least 30 because it prevents roughly 97 per cent of UVB rays (SPF 15 may only block 93 per cent).

2. Sunscreen Formulation

The delivery format of a sunscreen impacts how it feels and appears on a person's skin, referred to as sunscreen formulation. There are three typical sunscreen formulas on the market: sprays, lotions, and sticks.

3. Consider Your Level Of Sun Exposure

Another important consideration when selecting sunscreen is your level of exposure to the sun. For example, you must evaluate how long you will be exposed to the sun, how powerful it will be, and what activities you will be doing while in the sun.

Yutika Naturals Suncare Lotion is designed to be a non-sticky broad-spectrum sunscreen that works to defend your skin against the sun’s harmful effects while hydrating skin and preventing pigmentation.

Key Ingredients

• Grapefruit Oil

For years, this extract has been used for its therapeutic benefits. Its antioxidant content aids in the prevention of skin damage caused by free radicals, such as sun exposure.

• Plum

Plum is thought to hasten the healing process of skin cells, reducing blemishes and fighting indications of premature ageing. It gives the skin a moisture boost and aids in restoring skin cells and preventing dry skin.

FAQ:

What does the SPF number of sunscreen lotions mean?

SPF refers to a sunscreen's capacity to block UVB rays, which can cause sunburns and UVA rays, which can cause more severe skin damage. The greater the SPF number, the more protection it provides.

• Can sunscreen be applied after moisturizer?

Apply sunscreen after you've completed your skincare routine, as applying serums or moisturisers over your sunscreen will reduce the amount of protection it gives.

• How long does sunscreen last once applied?

Depending on the SPF, it can last two to three hours. Sunscreen should ideally be administered 30 minutes before skin is exposed to the sun, and this helps the chemicals properly bond to the skin. Every two hours, reapply it.

CONCLUSION:

Remember that while the sun feels amazing on your skin when you first go out, there are risks associated with it beyond the odd sunburn.

Keep yourself safe, and you'll thank yourself afterwards!
