You’ve probably heard how important SPF is over and over again, right? 👇🏻 And that is because all year round SPF is important, but especially right now! Did you know there is a difference between Broad Spectrum SPF and regular SPF? ☀️ Broad Spectrum SPF protects from both UVA and UVB rays, which means it protects all layers of your skin! ☀️ Regular SPF protects your skin from only UVB rays, which means it only protects your outer most layer of skin from the sun! Let us tell you again how important SPF is, but also that the type of SPF you use is important too! Protect your skin this summer! 👏🏼 #spf #sunprotection #summerskincaretips #medspaiowa #desmoinesmedspa #iowamedspa #nonsurgicalsolutions

Sun Damages Your Skin Through Your Window! 💙 Luke, my friend, I wrote this post for you, but it will benefit many of us… Many of us believe that the sun only damages your skin when it’s directly exposed for long periods, causing sunburn. I used to think the same. I believed that I was safe as long as I was enjoying the sun’s warmth from behind a window. ✋ I was WRONG! I found this out when I lived in New Zealand. Six years ago, when I moved to New Zealand, I noticed something unusual. A friend of mine was driving in the summer wearing long black gloves. Curious, I asked… WHY? The explanation was eye-opening. 🚫 It turns out that standard window glass doesn’t fully protect you from UVA rays, which are responsible for premature skin aging and can contribute to skin cancer. 🚫 Some 50% of these harmful rays can penetrate through glass, causing damage even when you’re indoors or in your car. This discovery prompted me to dig deeper into the science behind it, and it completely changed my understanding of sun protection. Now, I’m sharing this important knowledge with you, so you can better protect your skin and the skin of those you love. ✅ Being exposed to the sun is important for us humans, but you have to understand when it is safe and when it is not. This post does not teach you how to expose yourself safely to the sun, but it tells you how to protect yourself daily. ⛳ Remember, if you’re anywhere within several feet of the window, the rays will reach you. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #SunProtection #UVSafety #HealthySkin #SunDamage #SkinCareTips
