In reply to louise. Louise, hi. I think it's great that you wanna raise skin cancer awereness and I wish you all the best with your skincare business. The diagram isn't mine, but it's from the Make Me Heal website, so you should ask them. You can find the link to the site at the end of the post.

Hi there – my website will be live in a weeks time..
I am setting up a skincare business and will be raising skin cancer awareness too. The UVA UVA diagram you have is brilliant. Could I please ask your permission to use this?
I look forward to hearing from you.
Best Regards,
Louise

In reply to Dao. Dao, that's a great and simple way to remember the difference between UVA and UVB rays. :) That sounds like a good powder. The weather is very hot here too so it's nice to retouch makeup with a finishing powder with SPF for some added protection. :)

In reply to Dee. Dee, you're welcome. I only recently found out about UVC rays too but I'm glad we don't have to worry about them as they never reach the earth. :)

In reply to Tammy. Tammy, I prefer to use sunscreens that contain Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide as these ingredient offer protection from both UVA and UVB rays and are less likely to cause negative reactions than chemical filters. I may sometimes switch and try something with Mexoryl if it's a product that particularly interests me but usually I stick with Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide. Sure, they may feel a bit heavier and sometimes leave a white cast, but I think that's a very small price to pay for the good protection they offer. :)
