Which SPF should I use?

30? 50? SPF?

The American Academy of Dermatology recommends using sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30. This blocks 97% of UVB rays.

An SPF higher than 30 gives you limited amount of return.

An SPF 50 doesn't give you 50 times the protection.

It gives you a minimal amount more than the 30.

So sticking with the 30 is sufficient.

You just have to keep reapplying.

Especially if you are out exercising you should reapply sunscreen every 2-3 hours.

Summer Reminder to Wear your Sunscreen

One of my clients proudly told me she finally started wearing sunscreen everyday.

I asked her what motivated her.

She said she finally found a product that felt good on her skin.

Do you wear sunscreen everyday?

And, if you do, what brand do you prefer?

And if you don’t, why don’t you?

Wearing sunscreen is the best way to prevent aging, sunspots and skin cancer.

So, this is your friendly reminder to wear your sunscreen everyday.

Especially, in Boulder where we are.

A mile closer to the sun!!!!
