THE TRUTH ABOUT SPF IN COSMETICS

THE TRUTH ABOUT SPF IN COSMETICS

March 06, 2017 | 10184 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.

Hi guys, my name is Sarah Flower, I ended my marriage in 2024 due to suffering from domestic abuse at the hands of my husband. Currently, he is trying to reconcile with me after finding out that I won a Jackpot Lottery Prize of $96 million. Fortunately, I received assistance online from Lord Meduza, the great spell caster who has successfully aided many individuals worldwide in winning the lottery. I reached out to him about my circumstances and expressed my desire to win the lottery. After casting the spell, he provided me with the exact numbers to play. Now, my husband wants me back, fully aware of my $96 million lottery win, but I told him no; I will not return to him. I am incredibly grateful to Lord Meduza, and if you find yourself facing a tough situation, I recommend that you reach out to him as he’s the best in his field. You can contact him by

Losing access to my crypto wallet was devastating. Seeing my hard-earned Bitcoin vanish after the hack left me feeling helpless and vulnerable. I thought all was lost until my friend Olsen suggested I contact Crypto Pandemic Hunter. Honestly, I was skeptical, but desperate times called for desperate measures.
From the initial consultation, I was impressed with their professionalism and understanding of the situation. They listened patiently and explained their recovery process clearly. While they couldn’t guarantee a full recovery, they gave a small sense of hope.
To my utter amazement, within just two days, Crypto Pandemic Hunter managed to recover approximately half of my stolen Bitcoin – 1.9 BTC! The relief I felt was indescribable. The fact that they could recover such a significant portion is a testament to their expertise and dedication.
Crypto Pandemic Hunter provided a lifeline when I thought all hope was lost. Their swift action and successful recovery gave me back my funds and a renewed trust in the possibility of recovering stolen crypto. If you find yourself in a similar unfortunate situation, I highly recommend reaching out to Crypto Pandemic Hunter. They might just be the solution you’re looking for.

A long-lost “friend” on Facebook told me he made millions trading on a platform using USDT. He convinced me to join and even guided me through wallet creation.

It started well—but after I invested $349,000, I couldn’t get my funds back. I realized later his account was hacked, and the entire thing was a social engineering trap.

I contacted BitReclaim.com, and their response was immediate. They tracked the funds, correlated the addresses through blockchain analytics, and initiated a recovery. So far, I’ve received 4.9 BTC and am just covering the ERC20 gas for the final unlock.

Connect with them at @bitreclaimer on Telegram or call +1 310-893-5756. They’re experts.
