You hear it all of the time. The sun is evil and can cause many damages to your skin. In this post I want to share with you some helpful tips to keep you looking young and having glowing skin!
Wearing SPF everyday is not a bad thing. Women can now get tinted moisturizer for part of their make up routine. It gives you a boost of color plus the benefits of SPF 15. You never know when you will end up out in the sun, not planned. And the truth is, it doesn't have to be blazing hot to get affected by the sun. Guys, you may not want to wear tinted moisturizer, but you could dab a little SPF lotion on daily too.
The big one here in the optical world is to wear sunglasses! Not only are they stylish, but they are bigger than regular eye wear, so it will cover more of your face. Think about your future (or present) crows feet. Block those bad boys from the sun and they will be thanking you forever! I always talk about polarization which is fantastic, but as long as you have some sort of protection on your eyes it will help.
If you go tanning indoors, where the tanning goggles! Sure you may not want to because you are trying to get tan and don't it to be obvious that you have been. The goggles can give you tan lines, but it can not be compared to the stress you could be causing your eyes! Even if you close your eyes or put a towel over your eyes, the rays can pass through and be very powerful to the eyes. I understand that you want to look good and not have those "raccoon" tanning eyes, but think about how much you love to see. Without your eyesight you could not see your beautiful, sun kissed self!
Below is a picture that I wanted to share with you. It is of a truck driver who does not wear protective sun wear. As you can see the left side of his face is more damaged than the right side because his driving window is on his left. Now this picture is over time. But that is the thing. We always think about our eye health now and that it is fine, rather than thinking about the future of our health!
