Whenever I go to the beach, I’m extremely aware these days of what the sun can do to our skin!  Did you know the sun is the number one purveyor of skin aging?

The epidermis, our outer layer of skin, gives us our skin color and new skin cells.  Below this layer is the dermis, complete with glands, lymph and blood vessels, and happens to be almost all collagen for skin strength with a little elastin for suppleness.

The uv rays of the sun actually break down collagen and elastin.  Sadly, the sun also enhances the making of age spots through melanin production.  So, whatever parts of you that are always in the sun, like your hands and face, need protection.  That just makes sense, right?

The best way to delay the sun’s aging effect on your exposed skin is to wear and good SPF sunscreen everyday.  Herbalife skin activator is a classic example of what to use.  Make sure you find a nice day lotion containing the collagen building glucosamine complex that hydrates and firms skin, and has Parsol 1789 to provide uva/uvb protection!
