 In the winter cold, so that the sunscreen you just do not need, right? No, It's wrong! In fact, with accuracy, but on the contrary. In winter, the sun is closer to the ground, and its rays are even stronger. Despite the fact that in winter you spend less time outdoors and more - in areas of your face and hands are exposed. For dermatologists have already made a statement that if you're not using sunscreen all year, you are more vulnerable to the appearance of brown spots, lines and wrinkles on the face and hands. To reduce the danger to a minimum, experts recommend using products with an SPF of at least 15.
Here are some tips to protect your skin in the winter.
Choose a sunscreen that protects against both UVA, and UVB-rays from the same time.
There are two types of beams, which reach the earth's surface: ultraviolet A (UVA) and ultraviolet B (UVB). These rays are the source of sunburn and signs of aging, but most sunscreens only protect against UVB-rays. Make sure the sunscreen you buy contains components that protect you from both types of radiation.
Use it! - You are at home or on the street. After all, what you bought the sunscreen is not enough. Even if you are indoors, ultraviolet light penetrates through the windows, and in some years it can cause skin problems. Even sitting at a desk in an office, you may be exposed to harmful radiation.
When buying sunscreen suitable for your skin type, you can pay a bit more than the usual cream. But it's worth it. Such products usually do not cause allergic reactions, well absorbed and does not clog pores.
If you are going to play in the snow, remember that your face is exposed to UV radiation.
Snow reflects 80% of rays, which affect your skin. So if you love to skate, ski, sled, climb mountains, you need a cream with SPF-30 minimum, which will protect you from further exposure. And be careful with the water-based formulas. At high temperatures, the cream can actually freeze on the face, causing redness and irritation.
If you are awaiting a flight, do not spare the cream.
If you are going on a trip this winter, do not forget to bring a small bottle of cream. Your SPF-protective cream, perhaps stored in a suitcase, but where you really need it, so it is - on board the aircraft. The higher you are, the more radiation that you are exposed. This increases the possibility of cause excessive harm to the skin.
