Sunscreen For Winter
Sunscreen isn’t just for summer! In winter, UV rays (especially UVA) remain strong and can penetrate through clouds and windows, causing skin damage and premature ageing. Snow also reflects up to 80% of UV rays, increasing exposure. To protect your skin, choose a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30, and reapply every two hours if you're outdoors. Look for hydrating formulas with ingredients like hyaluronic acid or ceramides to combat dryness caused by the cold weather.
Why Should You Wear Sunscreen During Winter?
- UV Rays Are Present Year-Round: UVA rays, which cause skin ageing and damage, are consistently strong throughout the year, even on cloudy or cold days.
- Snow Reflects UV Rays: Snow can reflect up to 80% of UV radiation, doubling your exposure and increasing the risk of sunburn and long-term skin damage.
- Prevents Premature Ageing and Skin Cancer: Regular use of sunscreen protects against fine lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation, while reducing the risk of skin cancer caused by UV exposure.
Our Skin Expert Kimberley Says...
"When choosing a sunscreen for winter, opt for a broad-spectrum formula with at least SPF 30 to protect against both UVA and UVB rays. Hydration is key during colder months, so look for moisturising ingredients like hyaluronic acid or ceramides to combat dryness. If you have sensitive skin, mineral sunscreens with zinc oxide or titanium dioxide are gentle and effective. For more recommendations bespoke to your skin type and concerns, take our real-time skin test."
