Why It is Important to Wear Sunscreen


It is important to wear sunscreen all year long and especially in the scorching summer heat. Sunscreen protects your skin and provides many advantages, such as preventing signs of aging and the development of wrinkles by protecting your skin against harmful UV rays. You should wear sunscreen even on cloudy days as harmful UV rays can still damage your skin as they penetrate through the clouds. If you currently have sunspots, consult with an experienced esthetician at The Woodhouse Day Spa about facials that help to correct sun damage.

Sunscreen Prevents Signs of Aging

Wearing sunscreen can help to prevent dark spots and wrinkles as UV rays are the main cause of these signs of aging. Wearing sunscreen daily, even on cloudy days, helps to protect against UV damage to younger looking skin. Facials with a Vitamin C treatment help to clear the complexion and illuminate for a brightened, refined complexion.

Sunscreen Reduces Skin Cancer Risk


The most common type of cancer in the US is skin cancer, with over 5 million new cases every year. The best way to protect yourself against skin cancer is to wear sunscreen with a broad spectrum and an SPF of at least 30 or greater. You should reapply sunscreen at least every two hours.

Prevent Sunburn with Sunscreen

Sunburns increase your risk of developing skin cancer on top of being painful. Sunscreen helps to keep your skin healthy and prevent sunburn. Adults should always apply sunscreen to children to prevent painful and harmful sunburns.

Don’t forget to apply sunscreen to your face, neck and chest, the back of your neck, shoulders, and even the tops of your ears when heading outdoors. By protecting your skin, you can enjoy all outdoor activities safer without feeling the effects of UV damage.

You can get quality, professional facials geared towards reducing damage from the sun at the Woodhouse Day Spa in The Woodlands. Continue to wear sunscreen all year long and especially when exposed to intense, harmful UV rays that cause dark spots, wrinkles, and skin cancer.
