THE TRUTH ABOUT SPF IN COSMETICS

THE TRUTH ABOUT SPF IN COSMETICS

March 06, 2017 | 9902 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.

From a young age, football was my passion, and this love for the sport led me to pursue a career as a professional footballer in England. While it was a dream come true, the financial rewards weren’t as substantial as I had hoped. Realizing the need for financial security beyond my football career, I began exploring alternative investment opportunities. At the time, Bitcoin was a hot topic among my colleagues, and their enthusiasm sparked my interest. With growing curiosity, I decided to invest £8,000 in Bitcoin, and over time, my investment grew to an impressive £50,000. This financial success gave me the confidence to expand my business ventures and take on larger projects. However, my excitement was short-lived when I fell victim to a sophisticated phishing scam. One day, I encountered a website that looked identical to my trusted trading platform. Believing it was legitimate, I entered my login details without hesitation. Shortly after, I discovered that my Bitcoin wallet had been emptied. Years of hard work and financial growth vanished in an instant. I was devastated and felt completely helpless.

I had lost access to my Bitcoin wallet after a catastrophic hard drive failure, and I was completely distraught. My attempts at recovery on my own were futile, and I was afraid my investment was gone for good. Dexdert Net Pro Recovery came highly recommended, so I decided to give them a try. What set them apart from other firms was their transparency. They didn’t give me false hope but instead took the time to explain all the potential recovery methods, the risks involved, and the timeline. Within a few weeks, my Bitcoin was fully recovered, and I was kept updated every step of the way. Their dedication to client satisfaction and the level of care they showed throughout the recovery process were truly exceptional. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my Bitcoin recovery needs.

Having retired after a fulfilling career as a lecturer, I never imagined that I would become the target of a cryptocurrency scam. Yet, life often takes unexpected turns, and this experience became a painful but unforgettable lesson in the dangers of the digital world. contact with WhatsApp: +1 (443) 859 – 2886
Email @ digitaltechguard.com Telegram: digitaltechguardrecovery.com I had invested in a cryptocurrency trading platform that promised extraordinarily high returns. At first, everything seemed legitimate. The platform was easy to navigate, and customer support was responsive and professional. The allure of rapid profits clouded my judgment, and I overlooked some initial warning signs. As time went on, however, I began to notice troubling issues. The platform’s fees were disproportionately high, and the process for withdrawing funds became increasingly complicated and opaque. Despite these red flags, I chose to trust the system, convinced that the investment would eventually pay off. That trust was shattered when I attempted to transfer my funds, only to discover that the platform had disappeared, taking my money with it. The realization that I had been scammed was devastating. A significant portion of my retirement savings was gone, and I felt as though I had failed not only myself but also my family, who relied on me for financial security. Though heartbroken and shaken, I refused to give up. I turned to online research, determined to find a way to recover my lost funds. I spent countless hours reading about others who had fallen victim to similar scams and seeking any advice or solutions that might help. It was during this search that I came across Digital Tech Guard Recovery, a service that specializes in assisting victims of online fraud. Desperate but hopeful, I decided to reach out, unsure of what to expect. Working with Digital Tech Guard Recovery has been a long and challenging process, but it has also been a crucial step toward regaining control over my situation. While I know I can never fully undo the loss, the experience has taught me valuable lessons about the importance of vigilance in the digital age. I’ve learned to be far more cautious with my investments and to question offers that seem too good to be true. Most importantly, I’ve learned that even in the face of hardship, there is always an opportunity to learn, adapt, and seek help when needed.
