As we welcome the warmer spring weather, I wanted to share an important reminder about protecting your skin from the sun.
Wear Factor 50 This Week
As we prepare for beautiful warm weather that will bring temperatures of 22°C and beyond, it’s important to enjoy this fantastic weather with your skin health in mind.
The spring sun can be deceptively strong, and many people underestimate the UV exposure they receive during these early warm spells. Your skin may not have seen much sun over the winter months, making it particularly vulnerable to damage.
Especially Important for Treatment Clients
If you’re planning to book in for laser or IPL treatment in the coming weeks, sun protection becomes even more critical. I recommend you use SPF 50 and wear a wide-brimmed hat to prevent getting any sun on your skin.
Why is this so important? A tan or sunburn can mean we need to postpone your treatment. Laser and IPL treatments work best on skin that hasn’t been recently exposed to UV rays, as tanned or sun-damaged skin increases the risk of side effects and can reduce treatment effectiveness.
My Product Recommendation
I recommend Ultrasun sun cream for reliable, effective protection. Their anti-pigmentation SPF 50 formula is excellent – it’s dermatologically tested and works beautifully worn under makeup or on its own.
Ultrasun’s formulations are designed to last, meaning you get consistent protection throughout the day without the greasy feeling of many other sunscreens.
Get in Touch
