THE TRUTH ABOUT SPF IN COSMETICS

THE TRUTH ABOUT SPF IN COSMETICS

March 06, 2017 | 9903 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.

How Cloudstrike Helped Me Recover $205,000 Worth of Ethereum

After 25 years of hard work in public service, I thought I was finally financially secure. That changed when I fell for a fake online investment platform that promised high returns. It all looked legitimate — from the website to the “broker” who guided me through everything.

Over time, I invested $205,000 worth of Ethereum, trusting I was building my future. But when I tried to withdraw my funds, everything disappeared. The platform went silent. My entire life savings — gone. I was devastated.

Then I found Cloudstrike Cybersecurity Company. At first, I was skeptical — I had just been scammed, after all. But reaching out to them at [Clodstrikecyber@gmail.com ] turned out to be the best decision I could’ve made.

They listened without judgment, explained the recovery process clearly, and immediately got to work. Their team was professional, responsive, and incredibly thorough. Within weeks, they managed to recover a large portion of my stolen ETH.

I can’t thank Cloudstrike enough. They didn’t just recover my funds — they gave me back hope, peace, and a second chance. If you’ve been scammed, don’t give up. Contact Cloudstrike — they truly deliver.

I fell victim to a highly sophisticated crypto phishing scam that completely drained my Bitcoin wallet. The experience was devastating I had invested years of savings, and in just a few moments, everything was gone. At first, I thought there was no hope of recovery, especially since most people warned me that crypto losses were irreversible. But then I discovered Astraweb, and reaching out to them was the best decision I made. From the first consultation, they were professional, transparent, and clear about the recovery process. Their team used advanced blockchain forensic tools to track the movement of my stolen funds across multiple anonymous wallets and mixing services. To my surprise, Astraweb managed to trace and recover a significant portion of my lost Bitcoin within days. They kept me updated at every stage, provided me with evidence of progress, and handled my case with absolute confidentiality. Thanks to Astraweb, I recovered what I had assumed was lost forever. If you’ve been scammed or had your crypto stolen, I strongly recommend contacting them their expertise is unmatched in the recovery space.

Losing $400,000 wasn’t what I had planned for the beginning of 2025. I was contacted by an FX trader offering me a business deal that could transform my life. As a divorced mother of two, I need to find something that can earn me more money to care for and provide for my children. My only mistake was trusting a total stranger on the internet, and also loving my kids too much that I could do anything for them. I fell for this con artist and his schemes. Within the first quarter of the year, I have inadvertently invested $400,000 sent to multiple wallets, and for various reasons, I am unable to access my invested funds. Anytime I wanted to make a withdrawal, I was hit with a fee to pay. Exactly April 16th, an unforgettable day of my life, I came in contact with my messiah, DUNE NECTAR WEB EXPERT. I was looking to be rescued from these con artists and, if possible, recover all the crypto I had lost. I filed a complaint with Dune Nectar’s, laid out my problem, provided them with essential information about my experience, and also proof of transactions I had sent. All data required was furnished to them. Within the next few days, dealing with Dune Nectar’s team, I saw and learned a lot and the endless possibilities the internet could offer, both bad and good. Fortunately for my family, Dune Nectar Web Expert made good use of it by successfully recovering my lost crypto asset from a con artist. Every minute and effort spent recovering my lost crypto assets was worth it because I learned while dealing with DUNENECTAR WEB EXPERT. I highly recommend their expertise. Consult them to check out their other services they offer.
