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.

Soap & Glory is a brand I have loved for the longest time. Since discovering them when I was 16 I’ve bought hundreds and hundreds of their products, and none of them disappoint. It had been a while since I last had a Soap & Glory haul, so when payday came around I decided it was…
I know you probably hear this a lot, but seriously how fast is 2011 going? It seems like only yesterday I was seeing in the new year, and now its mid October?! Crazy. So yes even though it is now mid October, I’m now posting my September favourites video. Yes yes I know its very…
I’m now three whole weeks into my 100 Day Spending Ban Challenge, which is a lot longer than I thought I would actually get to. Last week I blogged about how I broke my ban and found myself buying a few things. This week I managed to stick to plan, but I did have a…
That’s right I finally got naked, Urban Decay’s Naked Palette (hey what were you thinking you dirty minded readers!). After months and months of lusting after this products I finally gave in and bought this bad boy. I know the Naked 2 palette is meant to be coming out soon, but I thought I should…
I’ve seen this floating around on a couple of blogs today and thought I’d give it a wurl too 🙂 Would you rather lose all of your mascaras, eye liners, lipsticks and lip glosses or lose all your palettes and eye shadows? Lose all my palettes and eye shadows. I couldn’t live without mascara…
