If you're not applying sunscreen correctly, you're not getting the full protection you need to keep your skin healthy and beautiful. And believe it or not, there are several common mistakes that people make when applying sunscreen. Let's take a closer look at these mistakes and how you can avoid them.
Mistake #1: Mixing sunscreen with other products
One of the most common mistakes people make when applying sunscreen is mixing it with other products, such as moisturiser or foundation. While it may seem like a time-saver, this can actually impair the performance of your sunscreen and reduce its effectiveness. To ensure maximum protection, apply your sunscreen on its own, before any other products.
Mistake #2: Not applying enough sunscreen
Another mistake people make is not applying enough sunscreen. Most people only apply a small amount of sunscreen, which can lead to inadequate protection and increased risk of sun damage. To ensure you're getting the full SPF protection listed on the product, use at least 1/4 teaspoon of sunscreen for your face, and at least 1/2 teaspoon for your face, neck, and ears.
Mistake #3: Not wearing sunscreen every day
Many people only wear sunscreen on sunny days or when they're spending time outside, but the truth is, you should wear sunscreen every day. Even on cloudy or overcast days, UV rays can still penetrate through the clouds and cause damage to your skin. Make it a habit to wear sunscreen 365 days a year, and your skin will thank you.
By avoiding these common mistakes and applying your sunscreen correctly, you can ensure that your skin is fully protected from the sun's harmful rays. Choose an Airyday Skinscreen you love to wear daily and make it a daily part of your beauty routine.
