UV Safety For Your Skin

Posted by Kim Beels on

Environ Skin Care was founded by Dr. Des Fernandes after a tragic loss of two young patients from melanoma. For this reason, Environ takes sun care very seriously, and we want you to take it seriously, too!

Ultraviolet sun rays are the leading cause of skin cancer. UVA and UVB radiation are also primary contributors to premature aging and wrinkling of the skin. In fact, UV rays from the sun are the #1 cause of skin aging — not genetics, not your age, not pollution, not stress, not smoking — just the sun!

Wearing a broad spectrum sunscreen every day is your best defense against the effects of photoaging and skin cancer. In fact, one study from researchers in Australia (a place that can be very sunny, indeed!), revealed that daily sunscreen users had skin that aged a full 24% less than that of occasional wearers.

Environ’s RAD Broad Spectrum SPF 30 Sunscreen is like insurance for your skin. It’s a physical sunscreen so it works differently than a chemical sunscreen. Physical sunscreens sit on top of the skin, deflecting and scattering damaging UV rays. Chemical sunscreens, on the other hand, penetrate into the skin so they can absorb the sun’s rays, convert them into heat, and then release them from the body.

Other benefits to physical sunscreens — they’re more moisturizing than chemical sunscreens, less likely to contribute to breakouts, and less irritating for sensitive skin. They’re also safer for anyone with heat-sensitive skin (including rosacea and redness) because they deflect the sun’s heat and energy away from the skin. Physical sunscreens also help protect your skin from the sun immediately, so there’s no need to wait before you go out into the sun.

Environ’s RAD Broad Spectrum SPF 30 also contains restorative antioxidants to fend off the effects of free radical damage, and a unique phyto-complex to help protect skin from harsh environmental influences. And it’s safe and effective for use on both the face and body. Just make sure you apply generously. One big mistake many people make is not applying enough sunscreen and then not reapplying it frequently enough. So, keep your skin safe this summer by spreading on your sunscreen and covering up!
