THE TRUTH ABOUT SPF IN COSMETICS

THE TRUTH ABOUT SPF IN COSMETICS

March 06, 2017 | 10146 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 $87,000 in a SIM swap attack. One moment my phone had service, the next it was dead. Within minutes, I was locked out of my email, my exchange accounts, and my entire crypto portfolio was emptied. The attacker had convinced my carrier to transfer my number, bypassed my two-factor authentication, and moved fast. I felt sick. Years of investing, gone in under an hour. That’s when I found TROJANHACK CYBER SECURITY COMPANY.

At first, I was hesitant—there are too many fake recovery “experts” out there. But Trojanhack was different. They were professional, clear, and moved fast. Within 48 hours, they had traced the stolen funds through multiple wallets, identified a key mistake the hacker made, and located the final destination—a KYC-verified account on a lesser-known exchange.

They worked directly with the exchange and law enforcement to freeze the account. In just under two weeks, every cent $87,000—was recovered. I don’t usually write testimonials, but Trojanhack earned this. They didn’t over promise. They delivered. If you’ve lost crypto to a hack or scam, don’t waste time rather get in touch with Trojanhack.

I got my money back because I called the right people and they can be contacted through their official E-mail address which is ( Trojanhack@qualityservice.com ) Give them a trial as they never disappoint.

I lost $385,000 to a Telegram Pig Butchering scam. A trader named Jane, lured me into AscentPrime, a fake crypto platform showing massive, but illusory, profits. When I tried to withdraw, the account froze, demanding a large tax. My life savings were funneled into an offshore mixer. Law enforcement offered no help. Desperate, I found Alpha Spy Nest (ASN). They didn’t promise miracles; they promised forensics. ASN’s team meticulously traced the funds, using proprietary graph analysis to follow the transaction shards through complex cross-chain bridges and a notorious crypto mixer. They pinpointed the consolidated funds just hours before the criminals’ scheduled withdrawal from an unregulated exchange. ASN used this evidence to apply massive legal and technical pressure on the exchange’s directors, threatening public exposure and sanctions. The exchange caved, executing an emergency freeze and clawback. Within 48 hours, $374,700 of my principal was back in my secure wallet. ASN turned a hopeless digital graveyard into a successful financial interdiction. They are the ghost hunters of the blockchain. If you find yourself in the same situation, you can also reach out to Alpha Spy Nest(ASN) for help via: whatsapp: ‪+15132924878‬, email: alphaspynest@mail.com, website: www.alphaspynest.org

I Lost $60,000, But I Managed To Recover The Money With The Help Of A Hacker. How It All Started? I Was Scammed By A Woman Who Convinced Me To Invest In A Fake Platform.

I’ve been through hell. I got scammed on February 2nd 2025! I cannot believe I fell for it I lost $60k in the blink of an eye!! I have been told that my profit has increased to $94k which is all a lie, I felt so stupid! And I was so disappointed at myself for letting them scam me but April 14th 2025 I was searching on Goggle and I found about 8 testimonials talking about how a recovery company on https://www.producthunt.com/intelligencecyberwizard had helped them in recovering their lost funds, I wanted to neglect it thinking it was another lies, but I decided to message the hacker and it took them 24 hours to respond, just early the next day I got a message from the recovery company asking me to send them the scammer details which I deed, and in less than 7/8 hours they messaged me that my funds have been recovered. As I'm writing this right now, I just received the money in my bank. I'm sharing this story here in case you fall victim to a scam, so you know which recovery company to contact.
