Let's Talk Sunscreen and your YOUTH RECOVERY

As summer approaches here are your essential tips for YOUTH RECOVERY to maintain a healthy glow and help you minimize sun damage.

- Remember that an SPF30 blocks 96.6% of the suns rays, with only 2% more if you use an SPF100. . . High SPF creams contain a higher level of potentially irritating chemical ingredients. By choosing to wear GUINOT’s SPF30 daily you have the perfect level of sun protection without irritation.

- Your YOUTH RECOVERY program recommends that you limit sun exposure 365 days a year, rain or shine. Apply a full spectrum screen that lists both UVA&UVB protection.

- Here is your checklist before you head to the park, the beach or the mountains: (1) Is the tube of sunscreen more than 6 months old (if open)? (2) Does it offer UVA and UVB protection? (The UVA rays are the ageing rays that secretly damage.

- Using sunscreen daily helps to slow down accumulated sun damage and consequential photaging.

Looking beyond a tube of SPF to protect your skin is a new avenue being explored. Pomegranates are thought to offer amazing sun protecting abilities (maybe thats why they grow in sunny regions around our globe). Other foods that offer sun protection include: green tea, fish oil Vitamin C, E and beat-carotene. These NATURAL anti-oxidants offer natural protection but also reduce inflammation and wrinkles and BRIGHTEN the skin.

Modern skincare now includes an essential new step in your beauty regimen that nestles right in between cleansing and moisturizing.

Vital ingredients that rejuvenate your skins health are found in today’s revolutionary skin care products called serums. These special treatment products provide a boost of anti-ageing ingredients that are quickly absorbed by your skin. They are designed to deliver a high concentration of active ingredients, such as Vitamin C, hyaluronic acid (plumps skin), antioxidants and hydrating vitamins.

Does your skin need a boost of anti-ageing ingredients?

In Europe, skincare serums first became popular back in the 80‘s, but our new skincare revolution has introduced both new ingredients and delivery into the skin for maximum results. Serums provide an extra layer of protection to the skin from UV damage and free-radical generation, both of which we know are ageing factors. High amounts of active ingredients really can help improve certain skincare concerns: Vitamin C for pigmentation and to increase collagen production, antioxidants to counteract environmental stress and damage and ATP to reverse cellular ageing.

Key ingredients:

• Retinol & Vitamin C are powerful regenerative active ingredients, Retinol stimulates cellular functions to renew the epidermis. Vitamin C promotes the synthesis of elastic fibers by creating a new natural support tissue.
• Dimethicone reinforces the hydrolipidic film (moisture level) and protects the skins surface.
• Vitamin E is renowned for its ability to neutralize free radicals.
• Hyaluronic Acid which holds up to 300 times its weight in water, rehydrates the cells to leave skin soft and plump.
• ATP is a new high tech ingredient, a biological molecule that is filled with energy to stimulate the activity of skin cells which have become lethargic over time.

I recommend a serum as part of your daily routine, not just for the winter months, they are an investment for the health, rejuvenation and youth of your skin.
