With consumer magazine, Which?, reporting that tests conducted reveal that two SPF30 suntan lotions from leading manufacturers, Boots and Hawaiian Tropical, fail to deliver the level of protection stated we ask does sunblock prevent premature ageing and what other anti-ageing options are available to you.
Sunblock helps anti-ageing
We all want to look our best and maintain a youthful appearance for as long as possible. Studies have shown that for people under the age of 55, applying sunscreen on a daily basis can reduce the signs of premature ageing such as wrinkles and fine lines by up to 24%.
Strive for a healthy, happy lifestyle
It will not come as any surprise to hear that a healthy lifestyle helps anti-ageing. Eating plenty of fruit & veg and keeping your body hydrated are essential in fighting off signs of premature ageing. Excessive alcohol consumption and smoking are both well know for making you look older than you really are so if you enjoy a drink (and most of us do!) always drink to moderation and avoid smoking at all costs.
Strive for happiness in your life. Stress can cause physical damage to the body so filling your life with happiness can actually do your body good.

A few weeks back I tried out the L’Oreal Paris Nude Magique CC Cream and I was left feeling disappointed and let down, so decided to carry on with my search for a decent BB/CC Cream that will leave my skin looking great, without feeling too heavy. I then discovered the Ginvera Green Tea Nude Cover BB Cream* and…
It’s pretty safe to say that I’m a Lush addict. And every year when the Christmas range is released I got and spend a fortune stocking up on my seasonal favourites. I normally just stick to the bath bombs and bubble bars, but this year I decided to try a few other things for the…
So this week I started back at uni for my second term of my second year (its scary how quickly uni is going!). And starting back at uni means early mornings and lots and lots of work :(. As I’m a person who chooses sleep over anything, I find myself using the same makeup over…
