What to look for in a sunscreen. . .

Sunscreen, as the name implies, screens out the skin damaging rays of the sun while sunblock actually blocks the sun damaging rays from reaching the skin.

A good sun product should screen or block against
both UVA and UVB rays.

Protecting the skin from the sun significantly reduces free radical activity which thrive in over exposure to sunlight. Your skin needs that protection!

Free radicals work to break down the collagen and elastin in the skin which in turn causes the skin to wrinkle, sag, and produce more melanin which in turn increases the occurrence of age spots.

What some neglect to do is remember to reapply a sunscreen product every few hours throughout the day. Once a day just isn't enough, especially if you are out in the sun.

Let's face it, aging skin needs all the help it can get!

A variety of anti-aging skin care products incorporate antioxidants including moisturizers, toners, masks, serums, peels, and scrubs which all help to protect the skin against free radical damage. 

What is the best sunscreen practice to protect your skin and prevent sun damage?  Combining antioxidants benefits with sunscreen begins a basic plan for skin care for aging skin.

The following ingredients are the more popular antioxidants you will find in skin rejuvenation products that work to protect and repair:

• Vitamin C
• Copper Peptides
• Spin Trap
• Vitamin A
• CoQ-10 (Coenzyme Q-10)

Sunscreen products improved quite a bit with the recent approval from the FDA La Roche-Posay's Anthelios SX, a longer lasting sunscreen with a new ingredient, ecamsule, which now goes farther than ever before to protect against sun damage and skin cancer.
