WARNING: Contains graphic pictures. After posting these pictures on Facebook and Instagram some took deep offence at them. Not asking me how i was, or my results. But telling me i should not post such “awful, ugly, annoying and disputants photos! Hence, the warning for this video!
Please be good to your skin. I now walk around with three scars that remind me every day to wear an SPF. Please do the same. A tan is never worth it. It really isn’t.
Institute Esterderm - while highly favourable with bloggers is not a company i recommend and the article i wrote mentioning this product i have asked to be taken down. While it might be the next best thing - any company promoting DNA damage (a tan) is a company i cannot recommend. Especially when using that product i did (as they said) go a lovely shade of brown but did (as they said wouldn't) receive sun damage in the form of sunspots and pigmentation.
QUOTES from leading dermatologists.
While it may be tempting to skip the sunscreen step in your morning routine when the letters "SPF" are written on every other bottle you're picking up, don't give in. "You would need to apply 14 times the amount [of powder] people normally use," Baumann says. The same goes for foundation—unless you want to slather on seven times as much as you would actually use to even your skin tone.
Unfortunately the SPF12-15 usually found in regular moisturisers doesn't cut the mustard, as we don't re-apply it every two hours and we simply don't use anywhere near as much as the thick layers they slap on when they test sunscreens in labs.
You need to apply a broad-spectrum protection with SPF (UVB) 30-50 and high UVA protection, so you'll have some decent protection throughout the day.
Do I still need to apply it on a cloudy day?
While you may not get sunburnt, your skin can still be exposed to significant amounts of UVA without even noticing. UVA can penetrate window glass and clouds. I always recommend the same sun protection level of broad-spectrum SPF 30-50 whether the sun is out or not.
Remember 30-20-2-1:
30: The minimum SPF you should use (other must-haves water resistance and a broad spectrum formula).
20: The number of minutes before you go out in the sun that you should apply sunscreen. That is, unless your lotion has titanium dioxide or zinc oxide, which are effective immediately.
2: The number of hours you can go without reapplying if you're not sweating or in the water.
1: The number of ounces you need to coat your body with enough product (a 0.002 mm layer) to provide the SPF listed on the label. If you're using lotion, that's about the amount that would fill a shot glass; if you're using a clear, continuous spray, that's 30 to 90 seconds of spraying—enough to create a visibly glossy sheen as it goes on.
I know too much sun can cause cancer, but aren't the chemicals in sunscreens unhealthy too?
Use the sunscreen. Although a few studies have raised questions about the safety of oxybenzone and retinyl palmitate, two ingredients found in some sunscreens, they are entirely avoidable if you read labels. So, what are potential concerns about those two components? Oxybenzone has been shown to cause hormone disruption in studies of cancer cells (however, a study on its effect when applied to skin did not show any statistically significant change in hormone levels). Retinyl palmitate has been linked to skin cancer when applied topically in very large doses to mice (however, the species of mice used in the study were far more susceptible to skin cancer than humans, and there aren’t any human studies showing the ingredient causes cancer, according to Steven Q.Wang, director of Dermatologic Surgery and dermatology
I want to make sure I get enough vitamin D. Does it still get through if I wear sunscreen?
When you have sunscreen on, your body's ability to produce vitamin D—which keeps bones healthy and may prevent some forms of cancer—is inhibited. "But even people who are very good at using sunscreen almost never wear enough of it enough of the time - to prevent adequate vitamin D production," says Robin Schaffran, MD, a dermatologist in Los Angeles. Even if you were to wear sunscreen every single day, it's highly likely some UV light is still getting through. If you're worried you're not getting enough vitamin D from your diet, all the experts interviewed for this article recommended the same thing: "Take a supplement." A daily dose of 600 IU daily should do it.
Be safe. Please use a sunscreen.
