Why UV protection is important for the face?

Ultraviolet rays (UV) emitted from the sun can damage your unprotected skin, triggering hyperpigmentation and premature ageing. Regardless of your age, sun protection is your best bet to prevent UV rays from harming your skin cells. If you haven’t been consistent with using a face sunblock, it’s never too late to start.

UV Protection skincare is crucial to prevent sun damage, which can cause issues like hyperpigmentation, dark spots, wrinkles and freckles. Include sunscreens in your daily skincare regime to minimise the damage caused by UV rays and reduce the risks of developing Melanoma, a condition caused by overexposure to the sun.

That’s why it’s really important to use a sunblock with both UVA and UVB protection.

When and how to use sun protection skincare?

If you’re looking for a non-greasy sunscreen face lotion with SPF, try our UV Plus [5P] Anti-Pollution, which is also available in rose & lavender. This sunscreen is packed with a revolutionary [5P] defense technology for 5 dimensional protection and potent plant extracts like Mango Leaf to boost your skin’s natural defense when faced with environmental stressors while combating the harmful effects of free radicals. It shields your complexion from the sun’s damaging rays, leaving behind a transparent finish without any oiliness or stickiness. Customers love that it’s lightweight and non-comedogenic. Unlike other traditional sunscreens, this one doesn’t clog pores.

Squeeze a bit of the product into your palm. Rub your palms together to warm the liquid before smoothing it over your face, starting from the centre and working outwards to the corners of your face to stimulate circulation and provide an instant radiance boost.

Don’t forget to apply sunscreen daily even if you’re indoors because UV rays can penetrate through glass. You should always use it as the final step of your skincare routine after moisturising, before applying your make-up. Alternatively, you can use a BB cream that comes with SPF for a quick do.
