Jane Iredale and Protection From The Sun
With nearly 500,000 new cases of skin cancer yearly, growing awareness of sun exposure has led to advances in sun protection.
The sun produces two types of ultraviolet radiation that affect the skin. UVB, also know as the burning ray, is the shorter wavelength and is more damaging. UVA, the aging ray, is longer and is damaging to the skin as well.
There are two main types of sunscreen: physical and chemical. Physical sunscreens, which are less irritating, work by reflecting or blocking the sun’s rays. Chemical sunscreens absorb the ultraviolet rays. Most sunscreens today contain both, known as broad spectrum sunscreen.
A sunscreen’s SPF (Sun Protection Factor) indicates how long someone can stay out in the sun without burning. A sunscreen with an SPF of 15 lets you stay out in the sun 15 times longer than without sunscreen.
This is really neat stuff because it provides protection from the sun by simply putting on mineral powder. Not everyone knows that Dermstore can supply you with protection from the sun by using a chemical-free powder
It also contains titanium dioxide and a nourishing natural clay. It can be provided before you go into the sun or it can be used to soothe inflammation after being in the sun. Either way it is great stuff. Also you can get in in translucent and tanned. It is really great stuff! The applicator makes it even better…just watch the video and you will see what I mean!
Jane Iredale Powder-Me SPF is an easy-to-use mineral powder sunscreen.
