5 reasons why we need to wear sunscreen everyday
Here at the Soulty Sea Dogs HQ, we're all about that outdoor life - but we also know all about the Sun's potent powers. And if we're not sunscreen-wise, those warm, delicious rays against the skin can do some real damage. And that's where we come in, we're here to protect you from all the bad stuff, so you can enjoy all the good stuff.
Still not convinced? Here's our top 5 go-to's of why you should spread the Soulty Sea Dog's stoke on your skin every day - rain or shine:
- Protection Against Harmful UV Rays
The most obvious and NB reason to wear sunscreen daily is to shield your skin from the harmful effects of ultraviolet (UV) radiation. The sun emits two types of harmful UV rays: UVA and UVB (don't worry - we've got both covered). UVA rays penetrate deep into the skin, causing premature aging, while UVB rays primarily affect the outer layer, leading to sunburn. Putting on sunscreen daily acts as a barrier, blocking these rays and reducing the risk of sunburn, skin aging, and skin cancers.
- Skin Cancer Prevention
Not a fun topic to chat about, but it's important. Skin cancer is one of the most common types of cancer, and overexposure to UV radiation is a major risk factor. Wearing sunscreen can significantly reduce your risk of developing skin cancer. The American Cancer Society recommends using broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 to protect against harmful UV rays - lucky for you, we tick all these boxes.
- Young and Healthy Skin
Sunscreen isn't just about protection; it's also about not looking like an old dried up prune. Prolonged sun exposure without protection can lead to a bunch of stuff people spend lots of money to get rid of later in life: wrinkles, fine lines, age spots, and uneven skin tone. By using sunscreen daily, you're investing in keeping your skin young and sexy. Your skin (and your bank account) will thank you for it in the years to come.
- Reduces the Risk of Sunburn
Sunburn sucks, and it's sore. Sunburn not only hurts, but it also damages your skin and increases the risk of skin cancer in the long run. By wearing sunscreen, you can say goodbye to painful sunburn and all the other negative consequences that come with it, such as peeling skin, blisters, and increased skin sensitivity.
- Maintains Skin Health in all kinds Seasons
Many people associate sunscreen with summer and surf trips, but the need for sunscreen is a whole year round thing. UV rays are present even on cloudy days and can reflect off snow, water, and sand. So, it's important to make sunscreen a part of your daily routine, regardless of the season.
All in all - wear sunscreen everyday. It's not just about looking good; it's a commitment to your long-term health and well-being. Make sunscreen an essential part of your daily routine, and your skin will show it's glow for years to come. Don't wait until it's too late – wear your Soulty Sea Dog's today.
