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.

So I decided it was time to treat my hair to some products that would help it out, especially if I ever want it to grow. One product that my friend Simone raves about is the Kérastase…
Recently in one of my Sunday Post’s I briefly mentioned the Naked Style Little Miracle Leave In Conditioner* (what a mouthful!). Recently I’ve been reaching for this product every day so I thought it deserved a blog post of its very own. Around a year a go I discovered leave-in conditioners, and since then I’ve tried a…
I originally planned to put all of my favourite products of 2013 into one big blog post. However when planning and taking photographs I realised there was just far too many products to include so decided to break it down into a mini series. I wanted to start off with hair products as this is…
It’s been a while since I’ve uploaded a good nail art post, or a NOTD post at all for that matter. After receiving my Rio Nail Art Kit at the #JulyLondonMeetUp I was feeling somewhat inspired. As it’s been an age since I’ve done any form of nail art I decided I wanted to do something simple to start…
Apivita is a brand I absolutely love. Everything I’ve tried from them so far has impressed me, and their Natural Serum Hydration is another one to add to that list. I was looking for a new serum when I first came across this. I often have dry skin, especially in the colder months, so I was looking…
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…
