Top 5 Best Tinted Sunscreens As Voted By You
Wearing sunscreen is super important in protecting your skin against UVA and UVB rays that cause premature ageing and even diseases. SPF also helps to protect us from other sources of premature ageing, like blue light, which is also emitted by the sun, but also by our digital devices like smart phones, laptops, and TVâs too.
But when it comes to tinted SPF's, thereâs so much more to them than vital sun protection â with todayâs innovative formulas, SPFâs have come a long way and carry a whole host of beautifying benefits. In todayâs post, weâre discovering the top 5 best tinted sunscreens this January, as rated by you, our incredible FTF customers. Itâs time to get your winter glow with our best SPF for face and body collection.
Why Should You Wear SPF In Winter?
Many people think that SPF is a product reserved for bright, sunny days only, but the truth is, itâs important to protect your skin even in the winter. But why? UVA rays (Ultraviolet A) rays are actually present all year â no matter the weather. Whatâs more, they stay at the very same strength right from dusk until dawn. And it doesnât even make a difference on those dull, rainy days as the powerful rays penetrate right through the cloud cover. In fact, they also penetrate through glass and windows, too â so if you sit by a window working all day or even if you drive a vehicle for work, youâre still exposed to the rays. And as we mentioned earlier, our digital devices also emit a different type of light (blue light) that has ageing effects, too.
Even if youâre away skiing in the Alps in a cold, bright climate, the UV rays are reflected off surfaces like snow and water â so itâs really important to remember to apply your SPF wherever you are.
