You may walk away from the sun with a tan, but that is not all you are getting. Excessive sun exposure is responsible for most adult skin problems, including, but not limited to fine lines, age spots, dehydrated skin and wrinkles. Skin texture changes caused by the sun's ultraviolet rays include thickening of the skin, leading to deep wrinkles and thinning of the skin causing fine lines. Be sun-safe by avoiding the sun and using sunscreen on a daily basis.
If your natural beauty is hidden behind melasma you are not alone. You don't have to be pregnant or even a woman to develop melasma. An estimated six million women throughout the U.S. are currently affected by this condition. Melasma is a darkening effect of the facial skin, resulting in brown patches most commonly found on the forehead, cheeks, nose and lip. Sun exposure can trigger melasma because the pigment cells in the skin are responsible for producing color in the skin and are stimulated by UV rays from the sun. Since melasma is very easily activated, wearing broad-spectrum sunscreen of SPF 35 or higher is very important.
