FACE

First rule of wearing sunscreen: never ever leave the face unprotected or risk accelerated and visible signs of premature ageing that includes wrinkles, spots and loss of elasticity. So, it goes without saying that sunscreen should always be the final product you put on in your skincare routine, and yet on some days, we still find ourselves feeling lazy and skipping it altogether. In times like this, it helps to trick our minds into thinking we are doing less by turning to a product that beautifies the face as well as provides a healthy dose of SPF. The key here is to apply a liberal amount and evenly.
