THE TRUTH ABOUT SPF IN COSMETICS

THE TRUTH ABOUT SPF IN COSMETICS

March 06, 2017 | 10145 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.

I LOST MY CRYPTO, HOW DO I RECOVER IT? GO TO DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY

A while ago, I enrolled in an online certification course that claimed to offer career advancement and job placement support. Everything about it seemed legitimate — the website looked professional, the team sounded experienced, and the marketing was persuasive. I invested $11,300, thinking it was a smart move. But after joining, it became obvious that I’d been tricked. The content was useless, and the certification had no recognition anywhere. Feeling frustrated, I began searching for ways to recover my funds and came across Digital Tech Guard Recovery. They immediately stood out for their professionalism and clarity. Their team reviewed my situation carefully, uncovered key information about the scammers, and walked me through each step of the recovery process. Within a few weeks, I had my full amount back. Living in Dallas, I’m beyond thankful for their help. If you’ve been deceived by an online scheme, I highly recommend contacting Digital Tech Guard Recovery — they’re reliable, efficient, and genuinely care about helping victims get justice. reach out to them on WhatsApp: +14438592886

My name is Nicholas, and this is the story of how I lost everything and how Alpha Spy Nest brought me back from the brink. It started with a Telegram group, Crypto Wealth Builders. The messages were electric, promising financial freedom through a trading scheme.The group’s leader, TraderX, shared screenshots of massive profits, and the community buzzed with success stories. Desperate for a better life, I invested my savings $38,000. They promised mentorship, foolproof trades. I believed them. The first trade showed a profit on their platform. I was hooked. They urged me to invest more, but when I tried to withdraw, excuses piled up, fees, taxes, glitches. Then, silence. The group vanished. My savings were gone. Sleepless nights followed, guilt crushing me.One evening, scrolling through a forum, I found a post about Alpha Spy Nest, a group specializing in cyber-fraud recovery. Skeptical but desperate, I contacted them. They responded. Alpha Spy Nest was a small team of ethical hackers and fraud investigators. They listened to my story, never judging. They explained how scammers on Telegram operate, using fake platforms to trap people like me. They traced the scheme to an offshore server, identifying wallet addresses linked to my funds. It wasn’t easy, weeks of digging, negotiating with crypto exchanges, and legal pressure. They worked tirelessly, updating me with every breakthrough. One day, I received a reply from them, we’ve recovered $29,500. I broke down, sobbing. It wasn’t all my savings, but it was a lifeline. They guided me to secure my remaining funds and avoid future scams. Beyond money, they gave me back my dignity. Alpha Spy Nest didn’t just recover my savings, they restored my faith in kindness. The Alpha Spy Nest team were my heroes, proving that even in a world of deceit, there are people who care. I’m forever grateful. contact details below: Whatsapp: +15132924878, website: www.alphaspynest.org, email: alphaspynest@mail.com
