THE TRUTH ABOUT SPF IN COSMETICS

THE TRUTH ABOUT SPF IN COSMETICS

March 06, 2017 | 9916 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.

SUPPORT GROUP FOR CYPTO FRAUD VICTIMS – FUNDS RETRIEVER ENGINEER

Cryptocurrency has revolutionized finance, drawing both eager investors and cunning scammers. I encountered one such scam through a fraudulent website, Coexus Pro, which epitomized the darker side of this digital landscape. The site promised lucrative daily returns through an “arbitrage trading crypto bot” and cleverly mimicked the branding of a trusted cryptocurrency exchange, fostering a false sense of security. Enticed by the prospect of a consistent 1% daily return, I invested a substantial amount, hoping to capitalize on this seemingly golden opportunity. Initially, the platform performed as promised: returns appeared in my account, and I successfully withdrew funds without issues. This early success bolstered my confidence, convincing me I had made a savvy investment. However, my optimism was short-lived. When I attempted another withdrawal, I was informed that my account balance had fallen below a supposed “liquidity requirement,” necessitating an additional deposit. Trusting their explanation, I complied, believing it was a minor setback. Yet, when I tried to withdraw again, I was met with a new excuse: “blockchain congestion,” which they claimed would delay my funds for 24 days. As days stretched into weeks, my anxiety grew. After 50 days, I contacted their support team, only to face another demand—a 15% fee for “technical support” from a fictitious “Federal Reserve blockchain regulator.” The realization hit me: I had been ensnared by a sophisticated scam. The website soon vanished, replaced by a nearly identical one, continuing the deception. Desperate for answers, I turned to social media and found a review from another victim who had endured a similar ordeal. They praised Digital Tech Guard Recovery for recovering their funds. Inspired, I contacted Digital Tech Guard Recovery, whose cybersecurity expertise offered hope. While awaiting their response, I vowed to stay vigilant to avoid future scams in the volatile crypto world. Ultimately, their efforts paid off, and I recovered my funds, underscoring the value of diligence and seeking professional help in the face of fraud.

It all began when I made what I thought was a smart move, investing a significant sum in a promising new cryptocurrency project. The marketing was slick, the whitepaper looked solid, and the hype was massive. But just a few weeks in, I started noticing red flags. The platform went down intermittently, withdrawals were delayed, and eventually, the website vanished altogether. I realized too late: I had fallen victim to a sophisticated crypto scam. Devastated and angry, I felt completely helpless. The blockchain is supposed to be secure and transparent, but tracing stolen assets through multiple wallets, mixers, and decentralized exchanges felt like chasing shadows. I reported it to local authorities, but they admitted they had limited tools for handling crypto-based crimes. That’s when a close friend recommended Alpha Spy Nest Forensic Digital Recovery Experts. Skeptical but desperate, I reached out. From the very first consultation, their professionalism stood out. They didn’t promise miracles, but they laid out a realistic recovery plan. Their team of cyber forensics specialists, blockchain analysts, and legal advisors worked together seamlessly. They began by tracing the movement of my funds through a series of blockchain addresses, even identifying key mixing points and suspicious wallet activity. I was amazed by the level of detail they could extract.Over the following weeks, Alpha Spy Nest liaised with major exchanges and digital compliance bodies, submitting detailed forensic reports. With their guidance, several suspicious wallets were flagged, frozen, and ultimately, a substantial portion of my lost funds was recovered and returned. I never thought recovery was even possible. But thanks to Alpha Spy Nest, not only did I regain a large part of my investment, I also restored some peace of mind. They didn’t just recover funds, they gave me back hope in a world where digital crime seemed untouchable. Contact them via: www.alphaspynest.org
