It is absolutely necessary to use SPF daily to ensure your skin remains protected from harmful UV rays. SPF is one of the most important ways to prevent our skin from ageing (i.e. forming wrinkles and fine lines) and preventing post acne scars and hyperpigmentation.

Use SPF daily to ensure your skin remains protected from harmful UV rays.
NB: Regardless of the weather, sunscreen should be worn daily. This is because UV rays can penetrate through the clouds and even through windows.

SPF should be the last step of any skincare routine. It’s best to wait for 15 minutes after using sunscreen and let it dry on your face and form a film, before you step out.
NB: You can apply makeup after applying SPF.

Apply sunscreen every two hours throughout the day for maximum sun protection.

The general rule is two full lines on two fingers and apply generously on the face and neck daily.
