Protect your face from the sun!

Did you know that the number one thing that you can do to help your face stay young looking  is wearing a broad spectrum sun screen every day?   Even on overcast, cloudy days the sun can still cause microscopic damage to your skin.  Get in the habit of putting suncreen  on every day--don't even think about it--just do it.   Think of it as medicine that must be taken daily.  There are some wonderful ones out there now that work great under makeup.   It used to be that sunscreen made your makeup slide right off your face, but not any more.   Remember, too, that sunscreen needs to be reapplyed.   Many makeup bases now have sun screen in them, but an SPF 15 is not enough to do the job.  Use something in the 30 range to get better protection.   Sun screens that say water-proof are actually just water resistant.    After a lot of water exposure they need to be reapplied.   Also,  a cute hat on a really sunny day is just a fashion statement.  Protect your skin---you'll be glad you did!
