THE TRUTH ABOUT SPF IN COSMETICS

THE TRUTH ABOUT SPF IN COSMETICS

March 06, 2017 | 9941 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.

Are you trying to conceive, worry no more. It all happens as a miracle with the help of Dr Ilekhojie who my friend introduced me to when i was in pains, suffering from several miscarriages issues trying to conceive, he examined me by asking me some few questions on how to know what is causing my infertility and then told me what to do, of which i purchased his pregnancy herbal herbs he sent to me through delivery service. To my greatest surprise i got pregnant in less than 40 days of using the herbal herbs, as instructed by him. Dr Ilekhiojie has finally made me a mom after so many years of trying with wasted efforts.

My name is Amanda Dawson, and I want to share my story of how I lost and miraculously recovered—a huge sum of money in cryptocurrency. It all started when I decided to invest $85,000 worth of USDT into what I believed was a promising high-yield investment program. The platform had glowing testimonials, a professional-looking website, and even a financial advisor who convinced me that my money would double in just three months. I transferred my USDT, confident that I had made a smart move. But weeks later, when I tried to withdraw my profits, the website suddenly went offline. The advisor stopped responding, and my heart sank. I had been scammed. For months, I struggled with regret and anger. I reached out to law enforcement, but crypto scams are notoriously hard to trace. I almost gave up hope until a friend mentioned Washington Recovery Pro, a firm specializing in recovering lost cryptocurrency. I contacted them. Their team was professional and transparent—they explained their process and didn’t make false promises. They analyzed my case, tracked the blockchain transactions, and used their expertise in cyber forensics to trace the stolen funds. After weeks of investigation, they identified the scammers’ wallets and worked with legal authorities to freeze and recover the assets. To my amazement, Washington Recovery Pro successfully retrieved my $85,000 USDT and returned it to my wallet. I couldn’t believe it I had gotten my life savings back! Thanks to Washington Recovery Pro, I learned a hard lesson about crypto investments but also discovered that not all hope is lost when scams happen. If you’ve been a victim of a crypto scam, don’t lose hope. Reach out to Washington Recovery Pro they might just be your lifeline to recovery…
