I saw another post comparing regular sunscreen use (eg reapplying every two hours when outdoors) to sleeping on your back “so your face will be symmetrical” or trying to erase your skin texture with expensive creams. so I feel this bears repeating:

sunscreen is a health tool. and you have to use it as directed for it to work properly.

yes, it also has anti-aging benefits, and beauty influencer types seem to only mention that when they talk about it. but like. it’s FOR preventing skin cancer

and how miraculous is that? that we can- to some degree, albeit not perfectly -prevent a form of cancer? something that’s been a scourge of humanity for centuries, even when we didn’t really understand it? it’s incredible!

your sunscreen doesn’t even have to be whatever $100 French or Korean sunscreen aforesaid influencers are shilling, either. as long as it’s been approved by a reputable regulatory body, it can be the cheapo Banana Boat Sport stuff you get at the drugstore. and you don’t have to go to the insane lengths some people do either, like reapplying regularly indoors (unless you work in a glass box building with windows everywhere, I suppose) or wearing it at night

but by spending a mininal amount of money and expending the tiniest bit of effort, you can SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCE YOUR CANCER RISK. how is that the same as trying to not have pores, or the “preventative Botox” trend?

if not smoking had been touted only for its aesthetic benefits, would we still all be puffing away like it’s 1955 and dismissing nonsmokers as Just Wannabe Lifestyle Influencers?

#sunscreen #skincare #spf #and like yes there are still some tenuous health concerns about some ingredients in sunscreen- physical sunscreens too!#but. one of these things MIGHT cause health issues for me POSSIBLY with no current conclusive evidence #and one of them will DEFINITELY fuck me up sooner or later #given the choice I'll take a Maybe But Probably Not? over a Definitely

Skincare tips

sleep as much as you possibly can

avoid touching your face, clean your phone regularly, change towels and pillowcases regularly.

find a gentle cleanser that does not disrupt the skin barrier

RETINOL !!!!!

Dr Dennis Gross peel pads are the holy grail! they will transform your skin

Effaclar Duo with Spf by La Roche Posay : unclogs, gets rid of impurities and helps with sun protection.

SPF every 2 hours, tinted SPF is better at preventing hyperpigmentation since it has higher coverage.

Biafine after Cosmetic procedures or Lasers or sunburns, it will calm the skin down in a day and prevent a sensitive reaction. reapply every 3 hours if possible.

eat a healthy diet

Wear sunglasses outside always

organic skin care products are a scam

eat Sardines, they are the best source of Vitamin A there is, I know it may be gross but it will give you glossy skin.

Drink 2 litres of water a day

Bardzo polecam te spf! Nie rolują się,nie bielą,nie są tłuste,szybko się wchłaniają i obłędnie wyglądają pod makijażem.

Jen! Makeup question, well kinda… it involves makeup! When you are wearing makeup do you reapply your sunscreen? Also if so how?! I have always been mystified by this. 😅

On a regular day, no. Now if I’m out and about in the sun, I always have something very special in my purse. Yes! Spray SPF!! It’s like setting spray. Now if I’m at the beach or pool, I reapply an actual SPF, but when makeup is involved, I can’t. There’s also SPF powders, but the spray is easier.
