  • 00:00:01

  • 00:00:03
    summer is upon us and today we're going
  • 00:00:05
    to discover the right way to protect our
  • 00:00:07
    skin from
  • 00:00:08
    [Music]
  • 00:00:12
    it so I'm going to go through what I
  • 00:00:14
    consider to be the right way to protect
  • 00:00:16
    your skin from the Sun and the sun
  • 00:00:18
    contributes to
  • 00:00:20
    80% of our aging people that's a lot so
  • 00:00:23
    we need to figure out the right way to
  • 00:00:25
    protect it there is an amazing amount of
  • 00:00:27
    sunrays that come through Windows you go
  • 00:00:29
    outside to just walk your dog for 5
  • 00:00:31
    minutes you're getting Sun you get into
  • 00:00:33
    your car you're getting Sun even while
  • 00:00:35
    you're driving um there's this one
  • 00:00:37
    famous photo about a truck driver that
  • 00:00:39
    you can you can Google online where he's
  • 00:00:42
    driven a truck his whole life and they
  • 00:00:44
    do it do a picture of his face and half
  • 00:00:46
    of his face it's about 20 years older
  • 00:00:49
    than the right side of his face because
  • 00:00:51
    that was the driver's side so that's a
  • 00:00:53
    really good way to just realize like how
  • 00:00:55
    much damage is done just from something
  • 00:00:58
    simple like getting in a car or or you
  • 00:01:01
    know being in a well-lit room the sun
  • 00:01:03
    bounces off of everything and even when
  • 00:01:05
    we feel like we're protected you know we
  • 00:01:07
    have a hat on some of the the beautiful
  • 00:01:09
    hats that people wear they have holes
  • 00:01:11
    all through them you need a hat that is
  • 00:01:14
    completely solid there's no sun that can
  • 00:01:16
    get through here so that's really
  • 00:01:18
    important as well um so make sure when
  • 00:01:21
    you wash your face in the morning and
  • 00:01:23
    you brush your teeth you don't leave
  • 00:01:24
    your bathroom without putting sunscreen
  • 00:01:26
    on so I want to show you some of the
  • 00:01:28
    products that I use for the body I
  • 00:01:30
    really like this lar Ro POS it's a
  • 00:01:33
    factor 60 and it just kind of melts in
  • 00:01:36
    so it's moisturizing I feel it makes my
  • 00:01:39
    skin look better and a little bit like
  • 00:01:40
    shiny this is a really good one it's a
  • 00:01:42
    factor 60 this from Sun Sabel is a
  • 00:01:45
    factor 30 but there's a ttin in it so I
  • 00:01:48
    feel like it makes my skin um a little
  • 00:01:51
    more even tone and and I love that about
  • 00:01:54
    this so these are the two that I use for
  • 00:01:56
    my body for my face I really love this
  • 00:02:00
    zo skin Health this is my favorite
  • 00:02:02
    favorite product um it comes out almost
  • 00:02:05
    like kind of foamy not foamy but it's
  • 00:02:08
    very
  • 00:02:09
    lightweight and it has like reflective
  • 00:02:12
    properties in it so it works kind of to
  • 00:02:15
    hide imperfections in your skin it's
  • 00:02:18
    also a primer for under makeup which I
  • 00:02:20
    love it's slightly tinted it has melanin
  • 00:02:23
    in the actual sunscreen so that it
  • 00:02:25
    tricks the sun into concentrating on
  • 00:02:28
    this melanin you've applied on the
  • 00:02:29
    outside while leaving your skin
  • 00:02:32
    completely protected genius when I on my
  • 00:02:36
    no makeup makeup days which you know
  • 00:02:39
    that's the hot Trend now no makeup
  • 00:02:40
    makeup um you'll have to watch my makeup
  • 00:02:43
    chair chitchat um with Jenny to to learn
  • 00:02:46
    more about that but I love this
  • 00:02:48
    Foundation it's actually a tined
  • 00:02:51
    sunscreen with a broad spectrum of SPF
  • 00:02:54
    45 it's for all skin type so it kind of
  • 00:02:57
    adjusts to your skin tone it comes comes
  • 00:03:00
    in a matte and an original which is more
  • 00:03:03
    moisturizing but it works as a really
  • 00:03:06
    lightweight foundation with an SPF 45
  • 00:03:10
    and most foundations only have an SPF 50
  • 00:03:13
    um it's completely layer you can layer
  • 00:03:15
    this as well to get more coverage so I
  • 00:03:16
    love this you know there's that whole
  • 00:03:18
    thing that they say you have to reapply
  • 00:03:20
    sunscreen after 30 minutes for women
  • 00:03:23
    it's really difficult to do that because
  • 00:03:25
    you know we have makeup on we have blush
  • 00:03:27
    on we don't want to put like you know
  • 00:03:29
    another moisturizing thing on top of
  • 00:03:31
    that that will smear all of our layers
  • 00:03:33
    of stuff around this I never leave home
  • 00:03:36
    without this is by brush on Block it's a
  • 00:03:39
    factor 30 mineral powder um sunscreen
  • 00:03:43
    and all you do is brush it on so it
  • 00:03:46
    takes any shine away but it also
  • 00:03:49
    protects your skin with an SPF of 30 so
  • 00:03:52
    your makeup stays in place it just kind
  • 00:03:55
    of mattifies your makeup a little bit
  • 00:03:56
    and it's genius so I love these you
  • 00:03:59
    should never leave leave home without
  • 00:04:00
    this in addition so have this in your
  • 00:04:02
    purse also have it in your glove box of
  • 00:04:03
    your car have a sunscreen in the glove
  • 00:04:06
    box of your car because when you're
  • 00:04:08
    driving your hands are so exposed and we
  • 00:04:11
    wash our hands all day long so we're
  • 00:04:14
    continually washing that sunscreen off
  • 00:04:16
    of our hands the second you get in the
  • 00:04:18
    car put a dab on your hands rub them
  • 00:04:21
    together so that your hands are
  • 00:04:22
    protective you don't need it on your
  • 00:04:24
    palms but just rub the back of your hand
  • 00:04:26
    so that your hands are protective brush
  • 00:04:27
    a little extra Sun Black on make sure
  • 00:04:30
    you have this on in the morning um if
  • 00:04:32
    you're Outdoors of course you need to
  • 00:04:35
    reapply but what is what I'm really into
  • 00:04:38
    right now is I'm I've become one of
  • 00:04:41
    those women that walks around with an
  • 00:04:43
    umbrella so and I'm fine with that and
  • 00:04:45
    one thing that people don't realize is
  • 00:04:47
    I'm sitting under an umbrella now it
  • 00:04:50
    only blocks about 70% of the sun's Rays
  • 00:04:53
    so when you are sitting poolside or
  • 00:04:55
    Beachside and you think you're protected
  • 00:04:57
    because you're under an umbrella you're
  • 00:05:00
    not that's why you're still gradually
  • 00:05:02
    getting getting sun damage you have to
  • 00:05:04
    really protect yourself with something
  • 00:05:06
    that cannot be penetrated by the Sun or
  • 00:05:10
    this is a sun umbrella which I
  • 00:05:13
    love it also works for the rain but it
  • 00:05:16
    has a reflective properties and it
  • 00:05:19
    blocks 100% of the sun's Rays so change
  • 00:05:23
    your umbrellas to ones that you that you
  • 00:05:25
    know are doing your skin some good so
  • 00:05:27
    here's the recap whether you're leaving
  • 00:05:29
    the house or not you need to wear
  • 00:05:31
    sunscreen every single day there's a lot
  • 00:05:34
    of sun that comes through the windows in
  • 00:05:36
    your car you should always have a hat
  • 00:05:39
    you should always have sunscreen to put
  • 00:05:40
    on the back of your hands and a travel
  • 00:05:43
    sunscreen which I love the mineral-based
  • 00:05:44
    one um to go over my makeup remember
  • 00:05:47
    that you're not always protected from
  • 00:05:49
    Umbrellas just because you're in the
  • 00:05:51
    shade does not mean you're protected you
  • 00:05:53
    need to get one of these sun umbrellas
  • 00:05:55
    which I love so that's it the sun is
  • 00:05:57
    coming it doesn't mean that you have to
  • 00:05:59
    hide from it we just need to know how to
  • 00:06:01
    protect ourselves and that's a really
  • 00:06:03
    good way to live
