National Sunscreen Day – 27th May
Sun safety is always in season but on May 27th we celebrate National Sunscreen Day and raise awareness about the importance of staying sun-safe all year round. As warmer, sunnier days descend, it’s only natural to want to find the best sunscreen for you. SPF is the most effective way to shield skin from cancer-causing ultraviolet radiation, as well as premature aging, which is the primary cause of fine lines, deeper wrinkles, blotchiness, discoloration, and textural abnormalities. The Publicity Loft has curated a list of SPFs that will be a total must!
