The summer season is slowly approaching and already withthe arrival of spring is necessary to attend to sun protection. Danger awaits not only on the beach, so cosmetics with UV filters are better to use not only caring, but also decorative.
Spring sun
The sun at this time of year is no lessa threat to the skin than in summer. Therefore, from the first days after the end of winter, you need to take care of the introduction of additional protective measures into daily care. Solar radiation provokes the growth of free radicals that cause premature aging of the skin and provoke the appearance of cancer and other equally unpleasant diseases like ischemia, atherosclerosis, stroke and others.
As you approach the summer season, you mustsmoothly switch from ordinary moisturizing creams daily use with SPF protection 10-25 to more "strong". This means the inclusion in the familiar cosmetic kit of such additional products as specialized creams with sun protection.
Harmful radiation spoils the skin even in winter, but incold and cloudy seasons, as well as in February-March (and April for residents of the northern regions), you can do with creams and powders with filters. Toward the summer, it is important to switch to the use of shampoos with SPF and apply sunscreen under decorative cosmetics.
Decorative and caring cosmetics
Conventional products usually come without additional sun protection factors, but there are brands that include cosmetic lines with small filters.
For example, creams from the budget and mid-price segment can be found in the brands Green Mama, Pure Line, Avon, LiebreDerm, Natura Siberika, Yves Rocher, Loreal, Lumene.
More expensive brands are also represented by meanssun protection: “Givenchy”, “Holy Land”, “Clinics”, “Payo”, “Clarins”, “Esti Lauder” and others. The series contain moisturizing, nourishing and anti-aging creams with a UV filter.
In addition, there are tonal foundations that allowkeep the delicate skin of the face. BB cream from Holika Holika, Skin79, Missha, masking agents from Max Factor, Maybellyn, Lumene, Garnier, Pupa, Bourgeois, Elena Rubinstein, Vichy, Giorgio Armani. "
When choosing cosmetics, you need to remember that whenusing a cream with protection in 15 and a tonal base in 25 SPF, the skin receives protection only with SPF 25, but not 40. The interaction of the funds will not enhance the effect of Sanskrin. Physical filters, such as titanium dioxide or zinc oxide, form a thin reflective screen on the skin. If the moisturizer with UV protection is glossed over with foundation, then the Sanskrin skin care products will not work. There are chemical filters, they are considered cinnamate, silicone and salicylate. They prevent burns and also cannot enhance their properties due to overlay.
Protected Hair
In the sun, hair burns out, becomes dullcolor and become brittle. This becomes especially evident after a sea vacation, where the wind, the sun's rays and salt water turn them into a mane of a lion that has not been washed for a long time. But they usually spend 1-2 weeks at sea, and for some reason they do not pay the influence of the sun and wind in their native latitudes.
To protect your hair from prematurefragility and loss of color, it is enough to rinse them with shampoo with protection from the sun or use a balm. Such means are in Estelle, Londa, Lebel, Loreal. There is also a convenient option for treating hair with a spray before going out. They are represented by the brands Schwarzkopf, Redken, Oribe, Paul Mitchell, Matrix, Vella.
Protecting hair with sunscreen, you needRemember that they are usually designed to protect the hair in length. They do not protect the head from heat stroke, which means that it is still necessary to cover it with a hat.
How to save lips
For lips there is a separate line of products,although many may say that it is more designed for ease of application. Indeed, lips can be protected with ordinary Sanskrin instead of a special balm. However, this may not be suitable for everyone, because the skin of the lips is very delicate and sensitive and can get irritated due to the usual cream.
Now funds with protection from UV radiationvery common, and such balms can be bought at any pharmacy or cosmetics store. And they are often presented as sticks for sensitive and inaccessible areas. They can cover the mouth, lips, nose and other parts of the body when applying the cream is uncomfortable or not possible.
Vishy, Shiseido, Clinics have such sticks,"Elena Rubinstein", "Librederm". As for lip balms, the brands Carmex, Blistex, Floresan, Belvedere are perfect. Lipsticks with a shade and an SPF filter are offered by Lank, Clinics, Bobby Brown, Lumene.
Face powder
Beauticians insist that cosmetics with SPFneeds to be updated every two hours. Since this can probably cause great difficulties due to the need to wash off all makeup every time and apply it again, the use of powder with filters on top of the cream can help. It can be selected depending on the budget and the desired level of protection.
Powder is a good choice for the spring, sohow easy it is to apply again, and it does not make the skin heavier. You can use mineral powders consisting of titanium dioxide, which in itself reflects harmful solar radiation. Loose Nyx powder, mineral Mary Kay, compact Vichy will cope with hazardous radiation well. But even with constant correction and the application of a new layer of powder, in the summer she will not be able to cope with the overly aggressive sun, so in the hot season there is a serious need for the transition to sunscreen.
Cream for summer weekdays
Common Sanskrit complaints for dailyapplications are that they, as a rule, are applied in a bold layer and as a result, the skin acquires a greasy shine, and the consumer does not leave a feeling of heaviness on the face. Unwillingness to use such cosmetics will adversely affect skin health, which means that the best option is to choose a good and high-quality cream that will have a matting effect or will not grease the skin and clog pores. Sunscreen face cream must meet high standards.
The undisputed leader in this category may becomeClinique SPF 30 face cream. Its advantages are in a fat-free basis, moisture resistance, and also it is not comedogenic, which means that the skin will not be covered with acne after prolonged use, which is why it conquers the hearts of the owners, according to their reviews. Holy Land Sunbrella cream is famous for protection from the sun on all continents, in addition, it has an aesthetic effect, mattifies the skin and does not lead to oily sheen. Missha All Around Safe Block Korean Sanskrin also copes with the above problem perfectly. It not only closes the skin from radiation, but also moisturizes it, softens and is quickly absorbed, without leaving an unpleasant sensation of weighting.
For children, sun protection with SPF is a must. Baby creams can be purchased at pharmacies; they should not contain substances harmful to young skin.
Sunglasses
Thin skin of the eyelids can't handle everythingradiation that reaches our eyes. To protect them, sunglasses with a special coating are provided. They should be bought exclusively in optics, as ordinary darkened plastic or glass will cause even greater harm. Due to darkening, the pupil expands and the eye remains open and is not covered by anything from the penetration of rays.
Another thing is the use of glasses with UV filters. They really do not allow harmful radiation to activate photoaging of the eyes.
What to do snow white?
This problem is especially true for men andwomen, children with red or blond hair, light eyes and pale skin. Most of their skin does not tan, but burns. Instead of a brown or bronze shade, they get red irritated integuments, the treatment of which takes a long time.

To do this, a couple of months before the proposed vacation, you can begin to go to the solarium, gradually increasing the tanning time from a minimum of 6-9 minutes, depending on the recommendations of a specialist. But even such a preparation would be completely useless without the use of protective equipment in a tanning bed; on fair skin, a tan may not even lie down, but only spoil it.
Girls with dark skin need to useprotective equipment in any case. It is important to remember that with them you can still get a tan, but without it it's easy to hurt. In addition, well-groomed and moisturized skin looks much better dry and with peeling.

Moisturizing the skin
Just applying sun protection is not enough. You need to understand the fact that Sanskrin is more a specialized means of protection than cosmetics for skin care.
After tanning, apply to skina soothing remedy for redness and to moisturize the skin. Creams with a high content of panthenol and aloe can cope with this task.

In salons complete with stikini, hats and glassesusually offer tan activators with bronzers and without. When planning to visit a tanning salon for a long time, it will be more profitable to purchase immediately a full tube of cream. In other cases, a sachet for one or two applications is provided. A visit to the solarium using cosmetics is strikingly different for the better from the result that can be obtained without it. The skin, even light, quickly acquires a dark and even shade, without stripes and streaks. And thanks to the protective functions, it remains moisturized and smooth, does not undergo photoaging.
