why a sun protection product is important in a skin care regime ?!


Question:

Answers:
Sun exposure is the skin's most dangerous enemy. If you're not convinced, compare the color and texture of the skin where it has been exposed to the sun with an area that has been protected, such as the abdomen. Notice how the sun-protected skin is smooth and evenly colored, whereas the exposed skin may be coarse and discolored. Sun exposure accumulated over a lifetime causes most of the changes to the skin associated with aging such as wrinkling, brown spots, broken blood vessels, sallowness, roughness, and cancer.
To prevent your skin from appearing old and unhealthy, simply protect yourself and your family from the sun:
- Stay out of the sun between 10 AM and 3 PM
- Apply sunscreen on a daily basis
- Cover exposed skin: wear a broad-brimmed hat or carry an umbrella
- Always seek the shade

Selecting a sunscreen that provides both UVA and UVB radiation protection is essential. UVA and UVB radiation have different wavelengths and are thought to have different effects on the skin. Although window glass stops UVB radiation, UVA radiation can damage your skin even when you're inside your home, office building, or car.

UVA causes the skin to tan and age prematurely; UVB causes sunburn. Sunscreens currently contain an SPF (sun protection factor) that numerically rates the sunscreen's ability to protect from sunburn. This number, however, says nothing about preventing aging of the skin. For best protection, use a broad-spectrum sunscreen containing active ingredients such as microfine zinc oxide that protects against both UVA and UVB radiation. Remember to apply sunscreen as part of your morning routine.

Good luck!
