Did you know that UVA (commonly known as ageing rays) are more-or-less the same strength every day, all-year-round! AND around 95% of the UV radiation that meets the earth’s surface is UVA. Unlike UVB, UVA can also penetrate cloud cover, fog and glass! This means that we are all exposed to high levels of UVA during our lifetime.
Cumulative exposure to UVA causes cell damage, contributes to the development of skin cancer and is also responsible for around 80% of the visible signs of ageing... That’s why dermatologists recommend wearing sun protection, daily, all-year-round!
