Daily sun protection – why it is essential

Beauty Tip No. 9

Many people associate sun protection only with summer or beach holidays. However, UV radiation affects our skin all year round – even on cloudy days or in winter.

Consistent daily UV protection is therefore one of the most important steps to keep the skin healthy, youthful, and even-toned.

Why daily UV protection is essential

  • Prevention of skin aging: Up to 80% of visible skin aging is caused by UV radiation. Wrinkles, pigmentation spots, and loss of elasticity can be significantly delayed with daily sun protection.
  • Protection against skin cancer: UV radiation is the main risk factor for skin cancer. Daily sun protection significantly reduces this risk.
  • Prevention of pigmentation spots: Sun exposure intensifies existing spots and leads to new ones. A high SPF protects the complexion and ensures an even skin tone.
  • Relevant all year round: Even in winter or on cloudy days, up to 80% of UV rays penetrate the atmosphere. UVA rays, which can even pass through window glass, are the most persistent and harmful.

Tips for proper UV protection:

  • At least SPF 30 – SPF 30 is sufficient for everyday use, while SPF 50 is recommended in strong sunlight.
  • Apply daily – Sunscreen should be applied every morning as the final step in your skincare routine.
  • Use enough product – A hazelnut-sized amount is ideal for the face.
  • Choose broad-spectrum protection – Select a product that protects against both UVA and UVB rays.
