Should You Wear SPF Daily?

Did you know that sun damage is cumulative? The majority of sun damage happens in the least obvious manner like commuting to and from work. Whether it’s cloudy, raining, hot, or cold the sun’s harmful rays are always present. Be aware that glass does not block UV rays from the skin, it only blocks UVB (burning rays) and doesn’t block the UVA (aging rays) which are more compromising over time. Annually, 3.5 million Americans are affected by skin cancer and protecting the skin with SPF will greatly decreases the risk of skin cancer. Note that sunscreen must be worn continuously everyday  regardless of weather. With all the different sunscreen options available, let Skin Resolutions in Santa Barbara be your guide to finding a sunscreen you love.
