Skin for all seasons: Protecting and pampering your skin year-round

With the warm weather and long-awaited sunshine comes the impending threat of sun-related skin damage. Whether you burn or tan when basking in the sun, everyone is at risk for Melanoma. It is the deadliest form of skin cancer; one person dies from it every minute. Though summer is the most vulnerable season for our skin, it is important to take precaution year round.

Here are a few simple steps that can save your skin year-round: 

Step One: SPF Your Makeup

Replace your usual foundation and bronzer with SPF-infused products such as Clinique's City Block Sheer Oil-Free Daily Face Protector, available in SPF 25 and 40, and Sephora's Bronzer Powder with SPF 15.

Step Two: Get Framed

Pick up a pair of UV ray blocking sunglasses. The sun can easily damage your eyelids as well as your corneas if not properly protected. Yves Saint Laurent makes sunglasses with 100% UV protection, and as if you couldn't ask for more, they come in animal print.

Step Three: Soothe Like A Baby's Bottom

Whether you are recovering from a sunburn or not, relieve your skin from the grime and sun exposure that damages skin every day. Wet Ones Sensitive Skin Hand & Face Wipes are gentle on skin, and are infused with aloe and cucumber, as if you were getting a spa treatment. They're perfect for when you're on-the-go, and leave your skin feeling refreshed and pampered. Spring, summer, fall, or winter, healthy skin is always in.
