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.

I mentioned on the blog the other day about how I’ve been trying out organic skin care, and how the condition of my skin has been improving. In fact in the last couple of months I’ve become somewhat of a skin care junkie, putting all sorts of lotions and potions on my face. I think…
If you read my Christmas post you will have seen that my mum bought me Clinique’s Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion for Christmas. I’d never used it before but it’s something my mum swears by and has used for years, along with other Clinique products. As I suffer from very dry skin like my mum she thought this…
As I mentioned in one of my earlier posts I recently made a models own purchase! I decided to try out my ‘Pastel Pink’ first out of my Models own haul. I’m not usually a pink wearing person, but I decided to try out the pastel colour of this nail varnish (I’ve become a bit…
I’m now four weeks into my spending ban, and although I’m rubbish at writing updates on it I’m pleased to say I’m sticking to it! Not one beauty product, peice of clothing, or something else I don’t need has been bought for a whole 28 days now. For someone who’s terrible with money and her spending…
I was bitten by the nail art bug again recently and wanted to try out something new. I’m still not feeling massively confident about trying out some more complicated designs so I decided to go back to an old favourite, leopard print. Leopard print was the first thing I learnt to do with nail art,…
