Ladies and gentleman I am a one woman miracle.
I somehow managed to get a terribly pink lobster face from a day sitting outside in rainy Sussex(undercover you understand).
Now I know that we should really all being wearing SPF at all times but practically I'm afraid I wasn't expected to be in the pink when I was also in the wet.
I am a devoted Dr Hauschka user. However I always used to top up my Dr H with a little bit of a day cream with SPF in it- I know that goes totally against the ethos of the brand but I hate wearing proper sun cream every day and worry about not using SPF.
In the last 6 months or so I have totally fallen off the SPF wagon and have actually had a couple of lobster incidents- although admittedly all the others were on sunny days.
I would really prefer to use a product that is as natural as possible with an SPF factor of 15 or higher everyday but failing that a good all round moisturiser for normal to dry skin with lots of anti silly peeling face factor would be fine. I will be continuing the Dr H use at the same time so I suppose a light product would be best. Do you have recommendations dear bloggers?
Hmmm... good question. I, personally use Philosophy's Hope in a Jar spf 20 every day and LOVE it. Before I used Dermalogica's Sheer Moisture spf (15?). I'm not sure if these products are as natural as Dr. Hauschka but I know they don't have parabens and fragrance and the like. Hope in the Jar does amazing things for your skin too btw.
ReplyDeleteOh, do I know about sunscreens. Being incredibly fair, I get in trouble just wandering down to the end of the drive to get the mail.
ReplyDeleteI don't like to "feel" things on my skin, so anything heavy is out for me. I have used a product called Elta Block for years and love it. Its SPF is 32 and it has a built-in moisterizer so I don't have to use two products. If I'm going to be out in the sun all day, I also use Neutrogena's Age Shield Face with an SPF of 90. It's light to the touch and it works.
I have always stayed out of the sun, and am happy about that now! Not wrinkly!!
Daily- I do have quite a weakness for Philosophy stuff so that is a great idea- plus it would look so pretty in my bag.
ReplyDeletePamela- SPF 90 sounds fantastic! it sounds like you have skin like mine. I sear I never used to burn at all, I think it must be lack of ozone or something. I can see that I might end up with rather a lot of creams...
