healthy living
It’s here y’all - the summer time is here for us to enjoy whether outside gardening, poolside, by the beach, or just between the parking lot & bingo hall. All of these are times that your skin is exposed to the Sun. All of this is time for you to truly enjoy the time spent with your family and soaking up the sun. You can forget to protect your skin and you’ll need to remember to pay attention to parts of your face & body. While you should always apply sunscreen with broad spectrum protection to your face & areas of your body that will be exposed to the sun (including during the winter) these are the usually overlooked areas that need to have a little extra special attention.
Step #1: Protect Your Nose Obviously this is the most exposed part of your face. It’s out there and is prone to getting sunburned when compared to other parts of your face. Look for a broad spectrum sunscreen that is specifically for your face. Consider looking for a zinc product to use on your nose specifically.
Step #2: Protect Your Eye Lids Your eye lids are incredibly delicate and thin. Look for an eye cream with sunscreen and wear sunglasses when you’re outside, even on cloudy days. You’ll be able to find a great sunscreen-infused eye cream at Walgreens, H-E-B, CVS that won’t break the bank.
