Nevertheless in the summer, we are particularly exposed to the sun – more people spend time outdoors, and thus expose the skin to solar radiation, which accelerates aging and can lead to burns, and thus damage.
By choosing this type of cosmetics (preferably SPF 50), We protect the skin against ultraviolet radiation (UV), which is divided into UVA and UVB. The first penetrates deep into the skin and accelerates the aging of cells, the second works more superficially and is the cause of, among others burns. Many cosmetics protect against both types, reflecting or absorbing the sun’s radius. In addition, due to many available creams, you can also choose in terms of consistency – it’s important in the summer if we apply makeup. Then the gel, cooling and fast absorbing variants will be a better option.
