Our mothers and grandmothers may share many of their treasured skincare secrets with us, but one of the most vital lessons to learn from them is how they rarely stepped out without applying a generous layer of sun protection, even if the weather suggested otherwise. We may want to bathe in the sun whilst on a vacation and hope for a beautiful tan or believe that the sun is not as harsh during the winter months, however, this age-old wisdom of protecting one’s skin against the sun’s harsh rays should always travel with us.
Why Do You Need to Use Sunscreen and Does Sunscreen Protect Against UV Light?
Truth be told, the sun is not always our friend as it emits harmful UVA/UVB rays that can cause excessive tanning, sunburn or even skin cancer. Over exposure to the sun’s harsh rays leads to early aging as well as inflammation of the skin. UVA rays have the ability to penetrate deeper into the skin, making them more harmful than UVB rays, which is considered healthy in small doses. It is therefore crucial to protect the skin against the harmful rays of the sun, irrespective of the time of year or weather conditions, in order to keep your skin looking youthful, glowing and healthy.

What is Special About the Everyday Sun Protection Fluid?
Sunscreens have a Sun Protection Factor (SPF), which measures their ability to safeguard the skin from the perilous rays of the sun. Most high SPF sunscreens leave a white cast on the skin, which makes it feel heavy and dense. The Forest Essentials Everyday Sun Protection Fluid has the lightest texture for intensive sun protection. Its sheer fluid formulation evenly distributes a thin veil of luminosity over the skin. Infused with the most organic form of sun care available in nature- Coconut water– the Sun Fluid hydrates and nourishes the skin. It is infused with Yashada Bhasma (Zinc Oxide), which adds to the intensity of the protection against the sun. Basil leaf infusions protect the skin from environmental stressors, making it perfect for daily application. This Ayurvedic Sunscreen has a light, delicate texture with SPF 50|PA++ that protects the skin for up to 4 -6 hours, without leaving any sort of white residue or sheen on the skin.
