Make sunblock your BFF

It is a myth that sunscreen is only for summer. The UV rays from the sun is what causes harm to the skin, and these rays are present throughout the year. Summer or winter, never forget to wear a sunblock before stepping out of your house. This will not only save you from getting tanned, but also protect the inner layers of your skin. We love the Lakme Sun Expert Ultra Matte SPF 50 PA+++ Gel for a lightweight finish. Remember to apply it every 3-4 hours.

 

Use beauty products that have an SPF

An extra layer of SPF won’t hurt, right? Choose beauty products that come with an SPF, like a foundation or a setting spray that come with some sun protection. Pick a lip balm that comes with an SPF because the delicate skin on your lips needs all the care you can give it.

We love the Lakme Absolute Argan Oil Serum Foundation with SPF 45, which offers buildable yet light coverage.

 

Wear appropriate accessories

Always carry appropriate accessories along with you like a quirky scarf, a chic wide-brimmed straw sun hat or a pair of funky sunglasses., anything that will make sure your hair and skin is covered.
