Hello, It's great to hear about your travels, but I understand your concern about sun exposure and its effects on your skin. Here are some recommendations for sun protection and a skincare routine that focuses on natural or non-cosmetic products: Broad-Spectrum Sunscreen: Look for a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher. Choose a product that is water-resistant if you're going to be swimming or sweating. Even if you prefer natural products, sunscreen is essential to protect your skin from harmful UV rays. Regular Reapplication: Reapply sunscreen every two hours, or more often if you're swimming or sweating. Physical Sunblocks: Consider using sunblocks that contain natural minerals like zinc oxide or titanium dioxide. These sit on top of the skin and reflect UV rays. Protective Clothing: Wear hats, sunglasses, and long-sleeved clothing to protect your skin from direct sun exposure. Clothing with UV protection is especially useful. Seek Shade: Whenever possible, stay in the shade, especially during the sun's peak hours (10 a.m. to 4 p.m.). Gentle Cleansing: After a day outside, gently cleanse your skin to remove sunscreen and impurities. Moisturizers: Use fragrance free moisturizers to soothe and hydrate the skin. Antioxidant-Rich Diet: Eating foods high in antioxidants can help protect your skin from the inside. Include plenty of fruits and vegetables in your diet. Hydration: Keep your skin hydrated by drinking plenty of water. This helps maintain your skin’s natural barrier. Remember, while natural products can be beneficial, they may not provide sufficient protection against all harmful effects of UV radiation, like a scientifically formulated sunscreen can. It's always a good idea to consult with a dermatologist to create a sun protection plan that meets your specific needs and skin type. Enjoy your travels and take good care of your skin!
