The serum texture is ideal if you hate the thought of gloopy heavy creams and feels incredibly light and comfortable on skin. You do have to wait about 10 minutes for it to fully sink in before going in with make-up (it can be a bit slidey), so that's worth factoring into your morning routine.

Sunscreen is as important indoors as it is outside. Not convinced? It’s okay; I was there too. I barely wore sunscreen outside and I certainly wasn’t wearing it inside. Since then, I have learned how the sun was affecting my hyperpigmentation and in some cases causing it (more on the sun's scarier, though invisible impacts later!). The funny thing is, I only reached these realizations this time last year when quarantine began. Chemical sunscreens are more likely to be free of the dreaded white and chalky cast; however, due to the active ingredients they can cause irritation for those with sensitive skin. Mineral sunscreens are recommended for those with easily irritated or reactive skin types, and certain formulas are less likely to leave a tinted finish. So choosing between a chemical or mineral version is very much dependent on your skin type and preferences. How Often Should You Reapply Sunscreen? Alright, you’ve got a hot date tomorrow, but here’s the problem. There’s a rather large zit sitting happily where your blush is supposed to be applied. Instead of covering the unwelcome visitor with multiple layers of concealer and foundation that’ll end up clogging your pores, opt for the Killa Kit.

Sunscreen textures are innovating every year, and now there are options that range from creams to serums to gels. Focus on what works for your skin type. Gels and lightweight serums are ideal for oily and acne-prone skin, creams for dry skin and serum-like textures for sensitive skin. And those with a relatively balanced skin type can dabble between all three.So, there you have it folks. A nifty and super general guide to what makes MEGASHADE so exuberantly fantasmic. For maximum protection, sunscreen should be regularly reapplied throughout the day. “You should reapply your sunscreen every 2 hours, especially if you are out in the sun, working out or perspiring throughout the day,” says Robinson. A face moisturizer with SPF is a handy little loophole if you really hate the feeling of sunscreen on your skin. This particular member of the genre is the best sunscreen-adjacent thing for acne prone skin. The downside I will note is that it's only SPF25, which isn't quite enough for adequate protection - we'd normally advise a minimum of SPF30. You could get away with this in the winter months, but for a bright sunny day, we'd advise another, higher factor. A Comprehensive SPF50+
Why choose between sunscreen types? Why can’t we have both? MGS is a lightweight mineral and clean-chemical SPF50 formulation that protects against both UVA and UVB. In other words, she prevents both sun-induced hyperpigmentation and aging.

Acne-fighting
You’re here because you need a sunscreen that doesn’t exacerbate acne, but we’re here to tell you that you are setting the bar too low. MGS is an SPF that fights acne, hon. Her nifty ingredients like Niacinamide, Tea Tree and Colloidal oatmeal help to reduce redness and surface-level inflammation caused by acne. Just saying. Now, thanks to technological advances, most mineral sunscreens are so sophisticated you won’t even know you’re wearing them. And because they can be combined with hydrating ingredients, pigment and anti-ageing ingredients such as antioxidants without compromising their efficacy, SPF no longer even needs to be a separate layer in your skincare regime. There’s much to be said for big floppy hats, sunglasses and just staying out of the sun altogether. However, when it comes to sheer practicality, it’s far easier to commit to the cardinal rule of beauty and all-round skin health of applying SPF daily. As is true with a good many things, when it comes to sun damage caused from not wearing sunscreen every day (we’re talking 365; summer, winter, rain or shine!), looks can be deceiving. For anyone that’s had the harrowing experience of seeing what their face looks like through the unforgiving lens of an ultraviolet camera, you’ll know what I mean. For everyone else, there’s this video. Ultraviolet cameras give a close-up look at the effects of sun damage that lies beneath the skin—the unseen effects of years of sun exposure.

It should come as no great surprise that regular sunscreen use has been proven to protect against photoaging: the wrinkling, spotting and loss of elasticity caused by exposure to the sun's ultraviolet radiation. Skipping on sunscreen damages your skin’s collagen and connective tissue, which leads to a loss of elasticity and an increase in wrinkles.

While chemical formulas tend to be a popular choice because they’re typically lighter in texture and easier to apply, mineral sunscreens are less likely to clog pores, making them better for sensitive, irritated and blemish-prone skin types. So, this one goes out to my work-from-home and stay at home friends. Are you wearing sunscreen? Do you own sunscreen? And if so, how often are you reapplying it???? Rays of sunshine sound cute—but here’s the thing… For those tired of trying out every acne cream, exfoliant, or face wash, the Skin Discipline Supplementcomes in a pill form for you to swallow instead. Clinically proven to reduce common acne within 12 weeks, the revolutionary supplement is drug-free. Therefore, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 is believed to be able to stimulate collagen production in the skin, and more collagen means fewer wrinkles and younger looking skin.There’s a smorgasbord of consequences for not being vigilant with sunscreen, ranging from the invisible to the aesthetic to, yes, the C word. They include:
