The article emphasizes the importance of sunscreen application and reapplication to protect against UV damage and skin ageing. With advancements in sunscreen formulations, products are now available for every skin type, avoiding the thick, chalky textures of the past. Dermatologist Emma Wedgeworth notes that natural wear and incidental sun exposure necessitate reapplication every two hours to maintain protection. SPF sprays have become popular for easy reapplication, serving multiple purposes like setting makeup and hydrating skin, which makes sun protection more user-friendly.
While it's easy to layer a serum or cream sunscreen on as the final step in your morning skincare routine before you do your makeup, reapplication isn't always so easy with these formulas, especially if makeup was worn.
Sunscreen naturally wears off over time due to factors like sweating, touching your face and environmental exposure, which makes reapplication essential for maintaining protection.
SPFs have evolved to suit every skin type, tone, and concern; they're no longer thick and chalky, but feel light and add a glow.
Reapplying ensures that protection stays effective, reducing the long-term risk of skin cancers and premature ageing.
