They are independent of cold or hot weather, and are not blocked by clouds. Nor does being indoors protect you as lights emit UV energy. Windows do not block out the sun or protect you, from UV radiation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Sun damage starts a process called photo-aging. With sun exposure, the skin must respond to protect itself by producing more melanin. This is why we get tan. Chronic sun exposure causes the skin to become damaged. The oxidative stress caused by the sun breaks down collagen&#8211;a protein that gives skin it\u2019s strength. This causes wrinkles, and loss of elasticity.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Chronic sun exposure increases the DNA damage to your skin cells that can eventually lead to skin cancer.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">My favorite sunscreens contain zinc oxide (non nano), which provides more immediate protection, and is suitable for even the most sensitive skin. Make this a habit, and your skin will be grateful for it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Cheers to glowing skin,<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Chanel Jenae<\/p>\n<p><em>(image via Instagram)<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Name one skincare product that works immediately upon application, and continues to keep your face looking healthy, wrinkle-free, and ageless for years to come.
