Question:
Hi Lisa. I recently heard you on television talking about wearing sunscreen every day, even when it's cool and cloudy. Is this really necessary? — Maxine
Answer:
I can understand your confusion, Maxine. As a melanoma survivor, I can't stress this enough... you, and everyone in your family should wear a good SPF sunscreen every day. Not to mention, with the right kind, in addition to the protection, your skin will also look so much better.
Whether it’s humid and 90 degrees outside, or chilly and rainy, sunscreen is a must no matter what. Add it to your daily routine if you haven’t already. Sun damage not only causes wrinkles but can leave you vulnerable to skin cancer. I created the LynFit Advanced Daily Sun Protection contained in the LynFit Medical Grade Anti-Aging System with a member of my Medical Advisory Board, Dr. Deepak Narayan from Yale, to ensure that it works and isn't a bunch of hype.
It is a clinically proven formula, fortified with the market’s most effective photostabilizer to significantly enhance sunscreen protection against UVA and UVB rays linked to sunburn and premature aging. It includes antioxidants and skin calming botanicals that protect skin from damaging free radicals.
