All About Sunscreen & Sun Protection

Why is it so important to protect ourselves from the sun all year round?

It has already been proven in numerous ways that ultraviolet rays have more harmful than beneficial effects on the human body: they increase the risk of malignant skin formation; accelerate the aging process; are often the cause of various allergic conditions. Many people are deluding that the lack of sun also means a lack of UV rays, and this is not the case. Just the intensity is weaker, but all the risks of negative consequences are present. The is actually a protective mechanism of the body against strong solar radiation and visible evidence of sun damage to the skin. It’s good to keep in mind that the brightest people are more prone to side effects of the sun.

What sunscreen should we provide for the body moles?

To spend your summer vacation calm, it is good at the end of spring to visit a dermatologist who will review your moles and assess whether there are those that require removal, observation or special care. If you are one of the people who have more moles, standing under an umbrella with a T-shirt or well-worn with a SPF50 would be the best for you.

If we have a recent scars (from deeper cuts, operations, etc.), how to protect them from the sun?

Scars are a natural result of skin healing processes after some kind of trauma. They require special care, as the skin in the area of the scar is more sensitive and vulnerable. It is therefore much easier for a fresh scar to pigment and become even more visible. Not to mention that, in addition to darker, you can also get a thicker scar due to its unintentional exposure to the sun. Best in general is not to expose the affected part of the body to the sun at all. If this is not possible, garment or bandage protection will be more effective than lubrication with a photo-protective product. If the scar is on the face, you will need to combine a hat, glasses and a lot, a lot of cream.

A pigment spots on the skin?

With the appearance of the first more intense sun rays, there is also an increase in pigmentation in the face among the predominantly women. Taking some medicines during the summer, such as contraceptives, antibiotics, and the use of inappropriate cosmetics may also lead to such an unpleasant pigmentation. Regardless of their type (solar, hormonal, due to inflammation, trauma, etc.). The whole deal with unpleasant pigmentation is difficult. That is why prevention remains the best tool. Sun protection cream with a high factor and a wide range of protection is mandatory at sea and in the mountains and when driving for a long time (as UV A rays pass through the glass). If you want to remove pigment spots, you can only do it with the latest laser techniques in the autumn when the skin is not exposed to sunlight and begins to brighten off the summer tan.

Tattoos require you to be protected with a lotion with a high SPF?

If the tattoo is old, that is, at least 3-4 months have elapsed since manufacture, it is not necessary to use the product with the highest factor. You protect it like the rest of the body. In cases where the tattoo is fresh or you have undergone laser removal procedures, a strict photo-protection is required. Summer is a season where not only tattoos are recommended, but also many other interventions because it is harder to heal on the skin, and frequent sweating and high temperature are good preconditions for inflammation and infections.

Is there a difference between cosmetic and medical sunscreen lotions?

There is certainly. Medical cosmetics have much more requirements with regard to its composition, safety and effectiveness. You can be sure that the protection on the packaging against the UV, A and B beams corresponds to the actual one in the product if used according to the standard instructions. Not to mention that all companies are making great efforts to make their products as hypoallergenic as possible in combination to be comfortable and enjoyable, which in principle is not an easy task. We recommend medical cosmetics, especially when it comes to children, people with sun allergy and very light skin that burns easily.

Do different parts of the body need a different degree of protection?

Generally there is no such division of degrees of protection by field. Rather, the choice of product is made with respect to consistency – creams and emulsions are more preferred for the face, and lotions, milks and oils – for the body.

How to protect children from the sun’s rays?

Beauty does not want sacrifices. Men's skin care.

  When, why, how and where?

The trend, which has long been called metrosexuality, is today increasingly relevant, regardless of any factors determining the function, orientation or position of the men as an individual. You’re never too old or too young to start with skin care. There is nothing vain or feminine about it. Maintenance and skin care measures provoke the cosmetics industry to start producing more and more effective beauty products for men. This does not differ significantly from weight lifting, cardio, or healthy nutrition.

How to care for male skin

If you have normal skin: It remains without oil for most of the day and does not dry easily. Acne is rarely a problem.

Oily Skin: Your skin is oily stains and natural shine. Often you get acne.

Dry / Sensitive Skin: More easily irritated by external factors, it is very tight or dry.

Combination: Imagine that your face has T. The horizontal band passes through your forehead, the vertical reaches the top of the nose. This is called the T-Zone. Boys who have combined skin have a greasy T-zone but dry and sensitive skin on the rest of the face.

Aged skin: Skin looks sagging, wrinkled with age spots. You have spent many years without caring for your skin.

Step 1: CLEANING

WHEN: Morning and Evening

Skin cleansing is the first important step in the whole process. The minimum amplitude between cleaning is one day, of course. Every morning you wash your face with a cleanser for men made for your skin type. Cleaning morning refreshes as remove accumulated dead skin. Before going to bed, wash your face for the prevention of fat and other bacteria that clog the pores all night.

HOW:

Wash your face with warm water before cleaning with a cosmetic product. This opens the pores and helps to remove any deep dirt. Do not rub strongly – facial skin is very sensitive.When finished, rinse with cool water to close the pores and then dry. Never wash your face with soap. Regardless of skin type, the ingredients are too harsh for the face.Why use the wrong product and cause unnecessary damage.Washing your face more than twice a day is completely unnecessary.Talking about oily skin, over-cleansing of the sebaceous glands (the oil glands of the skin) acts as an overload, creating excess fat.

Step 2: SCRUB

WHEN: Morning

Exfoliation of the face should be done 1-3 times per week after cleansing. Men with oily skin need to exfoliate more often while men with sensitive / dry skin, less frequently. Exfoliation removes dead skin cells, helps new, healthier skin cells to reveal, improving the complexion.

HOW:

Wash your face in advance with warm water and use a small amount of scrub, gently rubbing it in circles around the face. Focus on areas where there is dead skin – nose, forehead and neck. When finished, rinse with lukewarm water. Never use a scrub more than three times a week and only once a day.

Step 3: HYDRATION

WHEN: Morning and Evening

Hydrating the face has numerous advantages: Makes the skin firmer, prevents water loss and has an anti-aging effect. When you are old, your skin cells can not retain as much moisture as before, mostly because the body produces less skin proteins (collagen). Moisturizing agents hydrates the skin’s sub-skin, stimulating them to look full, providing a young and healthy skin appearance.

HOW:

After washing or cleaning, apply a male moisturizer on the entire face. Pay special attention to areas around the forehead and eyes. Need a small amount of product and gently rub. If you have dry skin, you may need to repeat this step in the afternoon again. Men with oily skin – do not skip the step of hydration.

Step 3: PREVENTION

WHEN: Morning and Evening

What is the easiest way to have great skin all your life? Prevention.Prevention begins with sun protection and anti-aging, using adequate products.

Cosmetics "Max Factor"

Do you know what is common between the first foundation, the first artificial eyelashes and the first waterproof cosmetics? Well, if you think there is the same “secret” ingredient in their formulations, then we will definitely surprise you. The answer to the question is the name “Max Factor” or the world-famous cosmetic brand, which is now available to all ladies around the world, but long ago it was only “helper” to Hollywood stars from the big screen. What’s more, it is “Max Factor” that is the creator of their glamorous image and even the creator of the word “makeup”. Yes, obviously quite deserved today the brand is one of the world famous cosmetics manufacturers with leading positions. But not just today. When we turn back to history, it is equally obvious that the brand has been leading since its foundation, and at any moment to this day.

Max Factor Development

Since 1991, Max Factor is part of Procter & Gamble. But the traditions laid by the founder are preserved. Even a fraction of the historical achievements of the brand remain – from 1984 to the present day museum “Max Factor” has opened doors and welcome visitors into the building where Hollywood actresses were made up and coiffed by specialists of the brand.

Today “Max Factor” continues to be used by many celebrities under the spotlight and its products. Still, the brand provoked the emergence of the first ever Oscar for film makeup. And nowadays, Max Factor appears on fashion podiums as its products “take care of the flawless vision of many of the Milan Fashion Week models. Along with this success, a number of proven professional makeup makers recognize its qualities. And some of them even share their brand experience and start working together – since 2004, for example, one of the world’s most influential makeup makers, Pat McGrath, has become director of Max Factor Global Creative Design.

As for products, the “trademark” to impress with innovation also remains. That’s why, for example, in 2001, Max Factor presented the long-lasting lipstick “Lipfinity”, which they claim to give a bright and irresistible color for 12 hours. Perhaps that is precisely why, between 2006 and 2008, a “Lipfinity” is sold every 9 seconds worldwide. Well, there are more emblematic products of the new time that Max Factor creates. Such are the best-selling False Lash Effect and Eye Luminizer Brightener and Skin Luminizer Foundation products.

Eternal beauty tips

We all want to look good, so make an effort to maintain a good appearance. We visit hairdressers, beauticians, manicurists and give loads of money on beauty treatments and products. But there are a few tips that are universal and have no expiration date.

Wonderful hair

Comb your hair from roots to ends every night. It distributes natural oils throughout the hair and gives hair a healthy shine.

Always rinse well the conditioner (who need to apply at the edges of hair) with cold water in order to “capture” the outer layer and give shine.

Avoid breakage – use only a wide comb, especially when hair is dry.

If you color your hair, look for shampoos and conditioners free of sulphate. The sulfates can irritate the scalp and to remove the precious natural oils from your hair and make it dry.

Lovely eyebrows

Soften the skin before you tear your eyebrows with a cotton swab lightly soaked in warm water or cream.

Pluck off in the direction that the hair grows.

Never underline in pencil all the eyebrows, just fill in the loose areas.

For unruly eyebrows – spray a little hairspray on an old toothbrush, then comb your eyebrows up and out.

Shining eyes

Treat carefully the eye area. This is the most delicate part of your face. Clean carefully, never rub.

To reduce the puffiness of the eyes, spray them with cold water or put cold compresses (ice cubes in a towel) for 15 seconds. Repeat several times.

The eye shadows will stay longer on your face if you brush first the eyelids with moisturizer or foundation makeup.

Open your eyes – apply a light eye shadow (like ivory or gold) just above the lash line and the inner corners of the eyes.

Beautiful face

Do not touch your face unnecessary as it can pollute with your own fingers.

Apply the cream to the face or the cleaning product by gently pushing up, never down.

Use Fond du tan, not concealer (which is lighter than the color of the skin) to cover redness and spots.

Never squeeze a pimple. This can damage your skin.

Refresh the makeup by absorbing with a cotton swab on oily areas of the face – forehead, nose, chin. Then apply a thin layer of powder with a brush.

Wonderful lips

In case of chapped lips, your body gives a signal that not getting enough vitamins and especially those from the group of vitamin E. Increase your taking nuts and drink vitamin complexes to normalize the level of vitamins in the body.

Juicy and full lips. To achieve this effect is enough to apply gloss in the center of the lips, and it mostly lower lip, but in no case more goals lips because you will lose the effect of optical illusion that creates the brilliants particles of gloss.

Always use a balm or cream with UV-protection.

Honey is a great natural moisturizer. In dry lips, rub a little honey on the lips and discomfort will disappear.

Smile when you put lipstick – it’s the best way to ensure full coverage, including the corners.

Radiant skin

The best time to apply cream or lotion is just after the bath when the skin is still damp.

Beautiful skin starts from within. So select a lot of vegetables, fruits and water in your daily menu.

In winter warm body lotion in the microwave for 5 seconds to soothe the dry skin.

Exfoliate with a body scrub once per week to remove dead skin cells that make skin look rough. When the skin is fresh exfoliating, the lotions and oils are absorbed better.

The perfume will keep longer if gently rubbing Vaseline on points before spraying. Fragrances evaporate faster than dry skin.

Gorgeous hands

Moisturize your hands regularly. Use cream, coconut oil or shea butter several times a day.

Do not use nail polish remover more than once a week. When you buy a nail polish remover, avoid those with acetone as it dries nails.

In brittle nails it is often necessary to nourish them. Instead of buying different conditioners from the pharmacy to do so at home. We need to mix equal amounts of olive oil and lemon juice. The olive oil will nourish your nails and soften cuticles. The lemon does have the ability to whitens nails. To have maximum effect you can put cotton gloves.

Mission: Healthy and beautiful facial skin

Each of us dream to have perfect skin. But with such a boast quite a few people. Achieving and not an easy task in today’s life in polluted air and bad food. Do we know the consumption of vitamins which promotes maintenance of healthy appearance and what care to make to achieve it.

A correct diet

For healthy and good looking skin is better to take food rich in vitamins B, C, E, A and K and minerals.

Vitamin B is essential for the formation of skin, nails and hair. It can be obtained from oatmeal, eggs and rice.

Vitamin C protects the skin against sunburn and skin cancer. It occurs most commonly in fruits such as lemons, oranges, grape juice, cranberry, and also in cauliflower and green leafy vegetables.

Vitamin E also helps to protect the skin from sunburn and can be mobilized in the body by olives, spinach, nuts and vegetable oils.

Vitamin A is vital for restorative abilities of the skin, without him it would look dry. It can be mobilized in the body of almost all fruits and vegetables.

Vitamin K helps reduce the appearance of dark circles under the eyes and bruises. Vitamin K is found in leafy green vegetables, dairy products, as well as local ones such as pork and liver.

Taking large quantities of water helps the beautiful appearance of your skin.

An appropriate protection

Always use sunscreen, wear a hat and sunglasses when exposed to sunlight. Only the consumption of vitamin-rich fruits and vegetables will not protect you. Even if you have a darker complexion is a must to use sunscreen. Choose a product with SPF 30 and apply it evenly on your skin. It is better to choose a product that is suitable for your face and is waterproof. Do not apply too much of it on your skin because you risk it shine all day. It is not appropriate to expose to the sun in the hottest days between 10 and 16 hours. Good idea to have handy lip balm with UV protection.

Identify your skin type

There are several types of skin: oily, dry, sensitive and combination.

If you appear rashes on the face and neck when using a new cream or put on your new scarf probably you have sensitive skin.

If your skin looks like sweat and shine all day and often your pimples your skin is oily.

If your skin is oily only on the forehead, nose and chin, then you have a mixed skin.

If your skin needs constant supplementary moisturising during the winter season is untidy then you probably have dry skin.

Products for maintenance

Buy a suitable soap or cleanser for your skin. The use of toner is optional. Avoid using more aggressive and inappropriate products for your skin type. Wash your face 2-3 times a day with soap or cleansing gel.

Do not miss the products moisturising the skin, but do not overdo them. Sometimes it is more appropriate to use only water to clean the skin, warmer is suitable for oily and acne-prone skin. Lukewarm water is suitable for other skin types. Always wash your hands before treating your face as many bacteria can be easily spread on it.

It is recommended to reapply once a month suitable face mask. Instead of using scrubs, try tea tree oil. Apply it on the pimples and blemishes on your face. Another natural product for cleansing the skin is yogurt. It is suitable for all skin types as it is delicate and does not cause skin irritations.

Tips

 If you suffer from severe acne it is advisable to consult a dermatologist.

Always test the new products you purchase. You can do this by applying a small quantity of product on your wrist and wait 24 hours. In the absence of an allergic reaction such as a rash or redness the product is suitable for you.

Always keep your hair clean, especially if you have bangs. Do not let it fall on your face because the dirt it can be transferred on your face and cause the formation of buds.

Do not allow the products that you use on your hair and body to fall on your face, because in most cases they are fairly strong. When you wash your hair, make sure that you rinse it thoroughly. Wash thoroughly and hands after you finish washing your hair.

Physical exercise is good not only for a good figure, but also for healthy looking skin.

Short break and relax from everyday stress. Whenever you have the opportunity this time for a nap.

Always clean makeup from your face as you are tired.

At least once a week do not wear makeup, so your skin breathe and recover.

The use of contraceptives is a good idea in some cases where they are expressly prescribed by a specialist. The skin becomes clean and good looking. They are not recommended for use by teens.

Do not touch your face. In your hands daily accumulate many bacteria and microbes that direct contact with your face cause acne and inflammation.

How to distinguish creams with two letters in their name?

Several-in-one – with that characterize most products of our daily lives, in whatever sphere is their purpose. For several years active in your daily beauty care use precisely such beauty care products. And until we learn the exact directions of action BB cream for example, now appears DD and EE cream. The time comes to re-introduce clarity in how the basic act creams with two letters in their name and how they differ.

BB cream

Is invented by German dermatologists as product recovery after deep skin peeling and cosmetic procedures. Blemish Balm (healing balm) was not assessed on merit by the Europeans, but why does it enjoyed great success in Asia. In Korea developed its formula as increased nutrients and rejuvenating ingredients in it. BB cream cope with rashes, inflammation, evens skin tone and removes unwanted pigmentation. It serves as a wonderful base for makeup, removes defects of the skin and protects from sun rays. BB cream is able to moisturize your skin and eliminate irritations, but can not replace your primary tool for skin care.

CC cream

The idea to combine the properties of the foundation and moisturizer did not allow rest of scientists. After the success of BB cream appears CC cream – Color Control. The content of the tinting pigments therein is lower compared to the BB cream, but there are more components of care (sea minerals, vitamins and hyaluronic acid). CC cream not mask the defects but well evens skin regulate its natural color, nourishes and moisturizes. It is the perfect summer option for cosmetics. Big difference between BB and CC Cream will therefore test both. Compare the results of natural light and choose the one that looks better on your skin.

It has SPF factor (zinc oxide), the cream prevents the free radicals and even prevents premature aging. Why is this cream is not called hybrid between BB and CC cream is not clear. It can be called however “smart” sunscreen. Use it when you just want to protect yourself from the sun, but to get a rejuvenating care.

Some have added features for concern as protection from UV rays and even anti-pigmentation. EE creams are not recommended for frequent use and for thin and sensitive skins. This product is designed to adjust the gray face and black points. Some EE creams have the effect of lightening and are not appropriate in the period in which you have a tan.

Perfect makeup for five minutes!

Morning makeup does not have to take much time, but we all know how often we are late for where we are going. But this problem has its own solution: with just a few basic products you can achieve the perfect appearance for less than five minutes.

1. Concealer

You have to hide dark circles under the eyes and pimples that just appeared?  It takes just 30 seconds to move in concealer. You can use it before or after the foundation  - experts still disagree on the subject. Experiment and see what you do. Use very little concealer  and apply it by tapping gently instead of rubbing it. You can use a sponge brush or fingertips. Choose a color that is as close to your tan.

2. Universal cream

The Universal Cream is a multifunctional product that should be in the bag of every woman. He clarifies, hydrates, nourishes and evens the skin. It is not heavy. With most of these creams can skip foundation, concealer, sunscreen, anti-aging serum and moisturizer. You can hide pimples, squeezing your pores hide lines and small wrinkles, to equalize the tan and freshen the skin. The Universal cream can be used alone or with makeup.

3. Bronzer or Blush 

Add a touch a little sparkle with bronzer or blush. This is especially important if your natural suntan is pale. Use moderately – you do not need a lot of color. When using bronzer use just a little darker than your natural tan.

4. Eyeliner or shadows

Choose one – you do not need both, especially in rush. If you want to accord natural look, dab shades in neutral tones. If you want your eyes to stand out, put your eyeliner. Outline only the upper eyelashes and put only one layer of mascara. The whole process should not take you more than a minute or two.

5. Lip Gloss

Finish the makeup with a little lip gloss. It takes a few seconds and you can do it while going to the front door. If you prefer lipstick, put and pencil. Before you put the lipstick outlined your lips with the pencil. This will create a nice core of lipstick and it will last longer. 

To get ready quickly in the morning, you should be organized and maintained.

Clean your eyebrows regularly to not be disheveled morning.

Color your hair roots every few weeks and clippe the ends of your hair every two months.

Among these factors can be lack of moisture, medications or aggressive ingredients in cleaning products we use. May appear red itchy spots – the symptoms of dry skin.

When moisture does not help, the problem may be more serious. Dry skin can be a sign of diabetes, psoriasis, thyroid disease, eczema and athlete’s foot. Cracked, of course, it is only part of symptoms. Dermatologists explain that one third of people who suffer from athlete’s foot, I think they just have dry skin. There are three different types of condition, and the skin may look red, may appear scaly entity in the bottom or on one side of the foot or blisters on the bottom of the foot. Fungal and bacterial infections occur, primarily because most of the time the feet are closed in shoes. This provides ideal conditions for the fungus – darkness, moisture and sweat.

The most common form of athlete’s foot is manifested by itching skin between the toes. In the next stage of infection can be observed red and scaly areas that affect the area on the bottom and side of the foot.

The third type is a vesicular type of infection – leads to bubbles on the underside of the foot. Which one of the types of condition will develop depends on the way it is obtained the infection, as well as that at which the fungi are affected us.

It is important to remember that when our feet are wet, are much more susceptible to nail fungus that can spread on any toes if not treated. 

To prevent fungal infections or recurrence, should regularly change the shoes and socks to keep your feet dry. It is recommended to dry your feet nice once out of the bathroom, then sprinkle them with powdered, which will absorb moisture. If you suffer from such a condition that is not improving for two weeks, we should consult a doctor.

Adding more healthy fats into our diet may also help. Increasing intake of essential oils, such as alpha-linolenic acid and gamma-linolenic acid is recommended for dry skin which will reduce the amount of water fading through the skin surface.

In the case that the dryness of the skin is due to the lack of moisture, we can use a cream based on lactic acid, which can mix with vaseline. We should apply the mixture on your feet at bedtime and we put on our socks offer the experts. They argue that if we do this procedure every night, we’ll have soft and smooth legs after month. Another tip is to use a pumice stone after we bathed to remove dead skin cells.
