Focus on sunscreenAnti Ageing Skin Care - Focus on: Sunscreen

Some of what we consider skin “ageing” really has very little to do with age itself. Sun exposure and your environment can actually contribute to the signs of ageing. 
Try this: Compare the skin on an area of your body that is repeatedly exposed to the sun to an area that typically doesn’t get much sun exposure at all. If you have significant cumulative sun exposure, you might notice that your exposed, sun-damaged skin will often appear blotchy with brown spots, redness and textural changes. On the other hand, skin that has been protected from the sun tends to be more uniform in color with a smooth, supple texture.
As you develop an anti ageing skin care regimen, remember that avoiding the sun, wearing protective clothing, and using sunscreens with an SPF of 15 or more regularly over the years may reduce your chance of experiencing the harmful effects from the sun.
