Many women still believe that sunscreens are only needed when they head out for longer periods or just in summers. We hate to break it you, but that’s not the truth! A good sunscreen must be used every day no matter if you head out for 5 minutes or more. “Apply the amount of sunscreen you can rub in first,” tells Heidi Waldorf, M.D., founder of Waldorf Dermatology Aesthetics to Prevention.
“Let it sink in, then apply a second time. That’s the easiest way to get the full recommended amount of sunscreen to ensure you get the protection on the label.” Ideally, you want to apply a shot glass-sized amount to your whole body and you should always reapply every two hours and after swimming or sweating. Wedding Affair well understands the need for a good sunscreen in our daily lives. Hence, we mention some of the best available in the market currently. Have a look at our picks.
