THE TRUTH ABOUT SPF IN COSMETICS

THE TRUTH ABOUT SPF IN COSMETICS

March 06, 2017 | 9898 Comments Posted By: Eve Pearl

With all the information about the dangers of sun damage we should be more educated than ever on how to protect ourselves. Many of us think we’re doing all we can, but are we?

According to the American Cancer Society, in the last 40 years skin cancer is on the rise at over 200%. That’s more than breast, prostate, lung and colon cancer combined. Nearly 5 million people are treated for skin cancer each year. The American Cancer Society also advises an SPF15 or greater for protection and to apply it every 2 hours. Apply every 2 hours! Just want to make sure you didn’t miss that.

The Beauty Industry is overflowing with makeup products containing SPF (Sun Protection Factor) …up to 50 and even 70 in the US. SPF is featured in skincare, primers, foundations and powders promising to deliver sunscreen protection. Though, these makeup products have sunscreen ingredients, they do not have the proper amount of coverage or the capabilities to protect against UVA (aging) and UVB (burning) rays.

Most of us would need to reapply that SPF foundation at least 5-10 times a day to get the SPF coverage stated on that packaging. How many times do you apply and reapply your foundation? I apply my foundation and makeup once a day early in the morning…and it lasts all day long (thank goodness).

Do you think this might be creating a false sense of protection? Inadvertently misleading us to believe that those SPF cosmetics are protecting us from the harmful rays, when they are not?

Did you think applying cosmetic products with SPF and seeing the visible signs of makeup meant you were protected? When in reality you were NOT. Simply put, without the capabilities to protect against UVA and UVB rays, sunscreen makeup simply does not live up to the expectations.

It is time we took responsibility for our skin, with knowledge, choices and follow through. If you want to protect your skin from the sun you can apply actual sunscreen. A 30-50 SPF will give you protection up to 96%. Apply and reapply in summer and winter…as needed. There are also things like a hat, sunglasses, clothing and more. Let’s not forget, the most natural way to get vitamin D is by exposing your bare skin to sunlight. As with most things, everything in moderation!

Stay connected; there will be a follow up on how to use your favorite sunscreen in conjunction your favorite foundations and beauty products.

EFFECTIVE STEPS TO RECOVER FROM A CRYPTOCURRENCY SCAM DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY

When I began searching for a new apartment I never imagined how quickly excitement could turn into heartbreak. After weeks of looking I came across what seemed like the perfect listing on Facebook Marketplace. The apartment looked incredibly bright and modern with a balcony and a city view. Best of all the rent was far below what similar places in the area were going for. It felt like I had finally found my dream home. The supposed landlord told me he was overseas for work and could not meet in person. He promised to secure the property if I sent a $5,500 deposit in cryptocurrency. At first I hesitated. The request seemed unusual but the listing looked so legitimate and I did not want to miss out. After convincing myself it was safe I transferred the funds. That was the moment everything collapsed. The landlord vanished, no responses, no calls , nothing. My excitement quickly turned into dread. After doing some digging I learned the photos had been stolen directly from a real estate website and the entire listing was fake. I was devastated. Not only had I lost a significant amount of money but my moving plans were left in shambles. In desperation I contacted Digital Tech Guard Recovery. From the start they treated my case with professionalism and genuine concern. They explained how they could track cryptocurrency across the blockchain and reassured me that there was still hope. Unlike others I had spoken to, they did not make me feel foolish for falling into a scam. Instead they gave me confidence and clarity when I needed it most. Their team immediately went to work tracing the stolen funds. To my amazement they managed to follow the trail and successfully recover every single dollar. The relief I felt when the money was returned is beyond words. Without Digital Tech Guard Recovery I would have been left with nothing but regret and a very painful lesson. Thanks to them not only were my funds restored but my moving plans were saved as well. This experience taught me to be far more cautious when dealing with online listings especially on platforms like Facebook Marketplace. I am incredibly grateful to Digital Tech Guard Recovery for turning what could have been a disaster into a story of hope and recovery. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone who has fallen victim to an online scam. you can reach out to them on WhatsApp: +14438592886

I am open to share my experience with bitcoin investment and losing money to scammers. However, yes it is possible to recover your stolen bitcoins. I never believed in bitcoin recovery because I was made to understand that it was not possible. However, sometime in October I fell for a forex scam which promised overly high returns and I ended up losing close to $70,000. I searched for a month for help until I finally came across an article on reddit in regards to recovering stolen cryptocurrency so I reached out to him at [recoveryhacker101[at]gmail[dot]com I was so scared and skeptical because I have heard of bad experiences but I decided to give them a try and to my greatest surprise I was able to get all my stolen bitcoins recovered from the scammers within a very short time frame. I don’t know if I’m allowed to share the links on here but you can contact if you also need help.
