SUN PROTECTION FOR SUMMER

sun-protection-199x300THIS MAN’S FACE IS POSSIBLY THE MOST COMPELLING ARGUMENT FOR PROTECTING YOUR SKIN AND WEARING SUNSCREEN.

This is Bill. He is 69 years young and he has never worn sunscreen!!! As a truck driver, he spent 28 years with the left hand side of his face exposed to the sun.

Sun exposure is the main cause of premature aging. Using a sunscreen creates a barrier between your skin and harmful UVA & UVB sun rays which can even reach you through glass and clouds. It helps to prevent premature wrinkles, painful sunburns, melanomas and pigmentation.

Ultraceuticals Protective Daily Moisturisers in SPF30+ and 50+, as well as the SunActive SPF 50+ Range will well and truly have you covered. Visit your Blush Beauty and Skin Salon and keep your skin covered this summer.

There is no denying the fierceness of the Australian sun. We have a very high skin cancer and melanoma rate, being the highest in the world. As well as the very scary adverse sun effects, sun damage takes a toll on Aussie skins, causing a huge rate of premature ageing. Most Aussies would know by now to ‘Slip Slop Slap‘ to protect their precious skin from our harsh rays. Now, with the introduction of a new standard of Sun Protection Factor, SPF 50+, does the whole protection routine become a little easier?

UVB rays are the ‘burning’ rays, which is the major cause of skin cancer. They cause sunburn, cataracts and immune system damage. UVA rays are the most common and are the ‘ageing’ rays – which contribute to some skin cancer, but mainly cause premature ageing and wrinkling. The Cancer Council is recommending that 50+ sunscreen is still used in the same manner as any sunscreen, which means applied liberally, frequently and in conjunction with sun protective wear.

In Summer, we HIGHLY recommend Ultraceuticals SunActive SPF 50+ available in Face Cream 60ml $49 and Body Lotion 250ml $79.

For regular daily use any other time we recommend Ultraceticals Protective Daily Moisturisers available in SPF 30+ – Hydrating, Mattifying and Sheer Tint and also available in Protective Daily Moisturiser SPF 50+. All 100ml $69
