Sunscreen is an important part of a complete sun protection strategy. When used as directed, sunscreen is proven to:
1. Decrease your risk of skin cancers and skin precancers.
Regular daily use of SPF 15 sunscreen can reduce your risk of developing squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) or known as the second most common skin cancer by about 40 percent, and lower your melanoma or known as the dangerous skin cancer risk by 50 percent.
2. Help prevent premature skin aging
Sun damage from UV rays causes photoaging of the skin, which is characterized by a thick, leathery look, discoloration, and a breakdown of collagen, which contributes to lines, sagging and wrinkles.
3. It Protects Your Skin from UV Rays
The depletion of the ozone layer has increased our risk of sun damage from harmful UV rays. Sunscreen blocks these rays, greatly reducing the likelihood of sunburn.
4. It Helps Maintain an Even Skin Tone
Sunscreen helps prevent discoloration and dark spots from sun damage, helping you maintain a smoother and more even skin tone.
