By now, the myth that SPF is only necessary during the sunny season has been well and truly debunked. For those not in the know: a common misconception is that SPF protects against sunlight, but it’s actually invisible, skin-damaging UVA rays from the sun that it shields your face from. These harmful UVA rays radiate all year round, can penetrate clouds on an overcast day, and even pass through glass windows you’re sat by indoors to reach your skin. Sunscreen should be part of your skincare routine whatever the weather – consider it your daily defence. How we tested the best SPFs: We carefully select all ingredients for our products, and they are expertly formulated. Clients won’t find any parabens, mineral oil, phthalates, synthetic dies, or artificial fragrances in any of the Image Skincare lines which results in fresh, clean-feeling skin. When it comes to natural skincare, we understand the importance of having healthy skin. If you’re looking to explore alternative brands, here are a few recommendations that focus on natural skincare solutions:
