Let’s Talk Sun
Here are a few tips that can really make a difference to you skin in the sun:
- Wear sunglasses…all the time. Make them fashionable. TryWestard Leaning, a very hip sunglass line that really makes wonderful “shades”. They just launched a new collection with Olivia Palermo.
- Wear a hat, not a visor. Your scalp can burn. Yes it can. You can get skin cancer on your scalp. Yes you can. Make sure the cap is a tight weave.
- Use sunscreen EDD (every damn day). I don’t care if you don’t think you are going outside. Studies have shown the most sun damage people get is from walking to the subway, or running out to the car, or being outside for “just a minute” – doing these things over and over again is cumulative!
- Reapply sunscreen throughout the day. But “how do I do that when I am wearing makeup?” you ask? Use a mineral based powder sunscreen like the one I offer from La Bella Donna, below, over your makeup. You can throw it in your bag or backpack and reapply without budging your makeup or compromising your look! Now you have no excuses!
