Let’s get you Summer ready!

As we grow older, our view on life begins to change. We start to think about ageing, skincare and ways to boost our immune system. It’s no secret our bad habits will catch up to us one day which is why we are keeping you up to speed to reverse and prevent further damage. Starting of with sun damage!

The health of our skin is important. Doing well thought out research into your skin’s needs is essential.

After doing some research, we learned what the benefits of sunscreen are. Parrish Healthcare gives us the top benefits of applying sunscreen:

1. Protects your skin from UV rays
2. Prevents premature aging
3. Prevents skin disorders and/or skin cancer.

WHEN AND WHERE SHOULD YOU APPLY SUNSCREEN?

According to the NHS, vitamin D has many benefits for your health. Vitamin D keeps your bones, teeth and muscles healthy. It is claimed a lack of vitamin D can lead to health deformities. This is why we recommend you should spend 10-15 minutes obtaining sun exposure prior to applying sunscreen to your exposed body parts. We recommend your face, neck and arms. We also recommend you apply it anywhere which is exposed to the sun!
