THE TRUTH ABOUT SPF IN COSMETICS

THE TRUTH ABOUT SPF IN COSMETICS

March 06, 2017 | 10107 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.

My name is Kate Vallis, and a few months back, I lost my entire savings including my mortgage payments to a fake cryptocurrency investment scheme. I was promised huge returns on my investments but I was surprised when it all went down and I was logged out of my account. I was depressed and devastated, I thought of giving up my life until a promising post popped up on my timeline while I was scrolling through the internet about SpyWeb Cyber Security Service. I was convinced by their positive reviews online and I contacted them immediately, and to my greatest surprise, Spyweb Cyber Security was able to recover all my funds in less than 72 hours. I’m truly grateful for their service and I want to put this out there to anyone who might require their services.

It’s a joyful day for me. I have come on the Internet publicly today to tell the world the secret behind my happiness. It was two years ago I lost a beautiful relationship with my husband and ever since then I have been trying all possible best to get him back but it hasn’t worked out for me. But today it’s a different story after I got a contact from the Internet about Dr Ozigidon on 30th May Last year so without any time wasted I contacted him via his Whats-App +2349054750112. He got back to me on 1st June. I finally told him all my problems and he said to me, I will help you! I was happy because I have read testimonies about him and people he had helped without complications. Just in 48hrs my husband called me sounding so loving and romantic on the phone and told me he is coming home to me and he wants us to take our marriage vows again to prove how sorry he was. Dr Ozigidon helped me to bring my husband back to me and also helped me with fertility spells, so today I am a mother. Since last year I was shy to come out publicly but after giving birth a few weeks ago I chose to let the world know about a great man called Dr Ozigidon. drozigidonhenz.spell.net@gmail.com . I was lucky to meet him. He is friendly and helpful. He has been helping me since I contacted him and he has done a lot in my life. Contact him. With his powerful spell you shall find peace.
