Ageless Remedies in Athens Sun Tip Protection

In winter, many people put away their sunscreen. Actually, humans need more sunscreen during this season. It is true that the areas of exposed body surface may be less, but the face and hands and lips need protection as this is the time of the year when the sun's ray are most intense. UVA rays,which do not cause burning, do damage below the skin's surface leading to wrinkles, brown spots and skin cancers. Take a look at people who spend a lot of time in outdoor spots but neglect sun protection. They have more signs of premature aging with wrinkles and brown spots. Be sure you have a sunblock of at least 15 SPF it arms you with both UVA and UVB blockage.

Snow reflects sun worse than water so if you live in an area of snow accumulation or are a sports enthusiast on the slopes, don't forget to have and reapply sunblock. Actually sunblock is necessary for every season.

We also now know that if you really want protection, you need sunblock even in the house, more if you are exposed to sun through a number of windows. Windows let UVA rays in and depending on what side you occupy in the car you will notice that pigmentation or wrinkles predominate on the side you sit on. Besides sunblock with moisturizer, we have lasers and products that reduce sundamage.

Also it is necessary to take note of the part increased elevation plays in sun exposure. For every 1000 feet aboves sea-level, UVA damage increases 2%. Flying of course puts you way up in altitude, so one should slather on the sunblock (30 SPF) before you leave the gate.

Come in and let the staff at Ageless Remedies help you in your skin requirements.

Do not forget young children. They need sunblock for their sensitive skin and we all need sunglasses to protect from retinol and other types of eye damage. Sunblock and decent sunglasses will save you money in the future. Joy of Ageless in Duluth and Athens.
