Are you using the wrong sunscreen?

Expose yourself to the beach in the desire to get a perfect tan and look great all summer. But you wake up with a skin that burns, burns, bruises, barks and irritations. All these things are caused by the little mistakes you make without realizing. Andreea Hass, a make-up artist, tells you what these mistakes are and how you need to avoid them. 1. Use too little cream There is no standard amount to apply because it depends on the texture of the cream and the one that uses it.

The whole body should be covered and the product should be massaged until it enters the skin. Sunscreen cream is not taken up on the fingertips and put on the skin, but pour a generous amount in your hands and massage, Specialists say you will never risk putting too much cream, but too little. Do not forget to put on the sun's body areas even when you're not at the beach when you're in town. 2. Cream is expired The sunscreen expiration date is important.

If other products can still be used after the expiration date, sunscreen creams contain ingredients that deteriorate over time. Sun protection will no longer be effective, and in addition, bacteria and microbes can penetrate your cream. It is good to read the prospectus carefully and to keep it properly. Do not use sunscreen from one year to another. 3.

Apply only SPF-containing make-up products A 2-in-1 2-in-1 skin care product with sunscreen may seem practical, but that does not mean it works. Part of the problem is the amount: a little fond of the skin is not the equivalent of the cream you put on your face. No woman stretches so much of the face on her face as to supply a sufficient amount of sunscreen. Moreover, often the foundation is wiped off until the end of the day and you do not refresh it just as you should with a sunscreen. It's great to have make-up or care products that have a sunscreen factor, but this does not spare you the use of a specially designed cream.

Makeup should be as simple and easy as possible. Try to treat yourself as natural as possible! . 4. Use sunscreen only early in the day If you stay in the sun, your sunscreen will be effective for up to two hours. The skin uses the active ingredients of the cream, and it ends in time.

Sweating or water leads to even more rapid alteration of the cream. Apply the cream every hour and wait for a few minutes to get into the water after you have masked the cream on the skin. 5. You rely on water-resistant creams There are no fully waterproof creams or sunscreen lotions. Based on the tests, it has been proven that a waterproof sunscreen is effective between 40 and 80 minutes.

After this period, the cream should be applied again. 6. Apply sunscreen just hang out on the beach If it's a cloudy day does not mean you do not have to use sunscreen. UV rays penetrate through clouds and fog and burn your skin. UV rays are invisible: they do not smell, they do not taste, they do not feel, they do not hear them, they do not see them.

People tend to use protective creams only when the sun burns in the sky. Skin is burned and ages faster even when it's cloudy and you think you're in the shelter. 7. Use cream with the highest level of protection Dermatologists recommend using a cream with a minimum SPF of 30. Does that mean that a SPF 60 cream protects twice as much or twice as much? .

A sunscreen with SPF 30, if applied in sufficient quantity, will limit about 96% of sunburn caused by UVB rays. For high index creams, the differences are not significant: about 98% for creams with SPF 50 and less than 99% for creams with SPF 75. There is no way to block 100% UVB rays. If you feel more secure using a cream with a protective factor of more than 30, do it, but that does not mean you do not have to apply it as often or in a smaller amount. 8.

Protect yourself only with sunscreen creams As I said, sunscreen creams can not protect you 100%. You have to have your head covered, wear sunglasses and clothes to prevent the sun from getting into the midday hours. Do not forget that a sunscreen is not a passport for a whole day spent in the sun. Avoiding burns, it does not mean you've protected your skin well. Once you start to tan, and your skin darkens, it is affected.
