The #1 Anti-Aging Product

Your Retinol and Vitamin C are more effective if you wear a sunscreen with high UVA protection daily!

I am often asked what is the best product to slow down the visible signs of aging. The answer is always the same. A sunscreen with high UVA protection!

UVA rays from the sun are the #1 cause of collagen breakdown, fine lines, wrinkles and hyperpigmentation. UVA rays are always a threat even on cloudy days and they penetrate through windows.

UVA= Aging + Hyperpigmentation
UVB= Burns
HEVisible Light+ pro-pigmentating wavelengths (dark spots)

Unfortunately It's not always so clear the level of UVA protection you are getting in a sunscreen. Especially here in the US where brands are only required to provide-spectrum coverage. Look for the words high UVA protection in the description.

Some sunscreens like @supergoop & @colorescience list the PA+ rating scale which provides some insight on the level of UVA protection. The highest rating is PA++++

Other countries have a UVA star system or circle with more modern technologies, better filters and much more UVA protection. Really hoping the US catches up.

Look out for an upcoming video where I share a few of my favorites with high UVA protection.
