How To Protect Your Hair From Sun Damage-Featured

#1 Use sunscreen

Using sunscreen is a tireless investment for your skin. You’re not going to see results immediately, but protection against UV rays can prevent premature skin ageing and also the formation of dark spots.

#2 Take plenty of antioxidants

Some antioxidants like vitamin C are especially good at preventing UV damage and the melanin production. Antioxidants, in general, are good for the body as they prevent free radicals from damaging the cells which could in turn weaken them and cause problems like loss of firmness in the skin. 

Good thing is, you could consume antioxidants or apply them topically onto the skin. 

#3 Exfoliate often

Exfoliators do well to remove the dead skin cells which often makes the skin look dull, and prevent skincare products from absorbing properly. Physical scrubs rely on friction to remove dead skin, which could sometimes be too abrasive for sensitive skin. Chemical exfoliators like AHA and BHA, on the other hand, loosens the bonds between the dead skin cells so that they are able to fall off readily. Skin will appear brighter, and all your brightening skincare would be able to work its magic more readily.

#4 Incorporate brightening products into your skincare regimen

The Shiseido White Lucent line uses a two-prong approach to whitening – diminishing existing spots by breaking up melanin, and preventing the formation of pigmentation. Its unique timed delivery system means that active ingredients are released periodically over the course of the day, giving you all day protection against the formation of dark spots.
