As stay at home orders begin to be lifted and summer heat is just around the corner, protecting your skin against the sun’s harmful rays are extremely important steps to preventing skin damage. Also, if you are continuing to follow your own stay at home orders and continuing to practice social distancing, a quality sunscreen is equally as important because you will still have unnoticed times of sun exposure.
Knowing your skin type can greatly improve your understanding of what it takes to protect. Besides, your skin is your body’s largest organ and worth protecting. Be sure to give it all the protection and love you can this summer!
Sunscreen is Essential
Sunscreen is an ESSENTIAL product we ALL need to be using year-round and we recommend EltaMd sunscreens. The reason Pharmacy Solutions loves EltaMD is because their active ingredient is Zinc Oxide.
Why is Zinc Oxide better?
First, sunscreens containing zinc oxide provide broader UV spectrum coverage and superior photostability (meaning it does not degrade as quickly as chemical sunscreens). The benefit to using a sunscreen that contains Zinc Oxide vs other sunscreens on the market is Zinc Oxide reflects the UVA/UVB rays instead of absorbing them.
What makes EltaMD Sunscreen Stand Above the Rest?
Non Greasy
We also love EltaMD sunscreens because they are non-greasy, easy to rub in, and don’t have that “sunscreen” smell we all dread.
Tints for All Skin Types
Did we mention EltaMD sunscreens are also available in tinted versions to match your skin color? Say good-bye to the embarrassing white streaks left on your skin! Stop worrying if you “rubbed it in” enough without compromising on quality.
Sensitive Skin
Worried about how your sensitive skin will react to zinc oxide? Not to worry! EltaMD sunscreens are sensitivity free which means it is safe for even the most sensitive skin types and post-treatment skin. EltaMD even has sunscreens designed for acne, rosacea, and eczema prone skin.
What’s not to love about that!
Your skin and health will thank you for making sunscreen a part of your daily routine.

Unwanted & Unknown Sun Exposure
If you are someone who tends to avoid the sun during summer months, keep in mind UVA rays can penetrate through windows making our skin prone to sun damage which can unfortunately possibly lead to skin cancers. You may be getting unwanted sun exposure while driving in your car, sitting by a window for long periods of the day, or just during your 30-minute walk outside.
These unknown times of sun exposure are why creating a daily habit of wearing sunscreen is so beneficial for your skin’s protection from harmful rays.
Protect You & Your Family
Sun damage can be invisible to the naked eye, but the damage can be underlying and possibly develop into skin cancers if not addressed. Be sure to include your loved ones in this daily habit…the sun’s harmful rays do not discriminate against age, ethnicity, or gender.
