Show love to your skin with the life-changing power of dermatological skincare

Keep your skin protected with efficient daily sunscreen application. This can lower the incidence of actinic keratosis and non-melanoma skin cancer and is therefore the #1 prevention. 

The life-changing power of dermatological skincare.

Eucerin, believes in the life-changing power of dermatological skincare.

They are committed to helping reduce the signs of aging and risk of skin cancer - one daily routine at a time.

Maintaining a daily routine which includes products specifically designed to protect your skin from the harsh effects of the sun is essential.

So how can you keep your skin sun protected?

Eucerin Hyaluron-Filler Day SPF 30

A great example is Eucerin Hyaluron-Filler Day SPF 30 - a next generation anti-aging day cream with added sun protection for all skin types. Key ingredients - Hyaluronic Acid and Glycine Saponin - help to visibly reduce fine lines and wrinkles for a rejuvenated look.

On days when you’ll be spending extra time outside - like on the golf course - an additional sun protection product is a must.

Eucerin Sun Face Hydro Protect Ultra-Light Fluid SPF 50+

Eucerin Sun Face Hydro Protect Ultra-Light Fluid SPF 50+ is an easy-to-apply, ultra-light sun protection fluid. The fast absorption formula with invisible finish is non-sticky, non-greasy and no residue and provides very high UVA, UVB and HEVIS sun protection making it perfect for everyday use – and especially on sunny days on the golf course.

Key ingredient - Licochalcone A - is able to activate anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and detoxifying enzymes. These enzymes protect the skin cells from damage induced by oxidative stress and protein damage - and Licochalcone A is able to soothe irritated skin and redness. Glycyrrhetinic Acid helps to preserve Hyaluronic Acid and Elastin levels - and supports the skin's own repair mechanism against UV-induced DNA damage.

Researching skin science

Eucerin have spent years researching skin science and especially, the best ways to protect skin against aging and sun damage.

Whether looking to prevent actinic keratosis or use it as an adjunctive treatment for the condition, you can be confident that you’re well protected from the sun and free to enjoy everyday activities.

Here are some helpful tips to help you keep your skin sun protected:

WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN SUNSCREEN

Make sure it provides a high SPF (sun protection factor). This indicates the factor by which the time you spend in the sun before your skin develops redness can be increased by, compared to if you were unprotected.

A factor of 100, for example, means that when unprotected skin would start to redden in 5 minutes in the sun, using an SPF 100 would allow to multiply that time by 100. In this case, 5 mins x SPF 100 = 500 minutes.

APPLYING KNOWLEDGE

While a small patch of exposed skin might seem harmless, thorough application is the best way to minimise sun damage to skin.

When applying protection, we tend to significantly under-apply protection to vital areas1 – but the good news is that all it takes is a few simple tips to protect ourselves properly.

THE RIGHT AMOUNT

Apply at 2mg per cm2 of skin. A finger-length amount can help determine the correct dosage. A finger length equates to roughly two grams of product. Apply as follows:

  • Face: ½ finger length c. 1g
  • Neck: ½ finger length c. 1g
  • Scalp: 1 finger length c. 2g
  • Décolleté: ½ finger length c. 1g
  • Per forearm: 1 finger length c. 2g
  • Per back of hand: ½ finger length c. 1g

THE RIGHT TIME

Sunscreen needs to be applied every day throughout the year. Apply 30 minutes before going outside, and reapply every two hours during exposure. Don’t forget to apply it evenly over your skin, reapplying immediately after swimming, towelling or excessive sweating.

Skin cancer prevention and adjunctive treatment to actinic keratosis requires consistent and adequate sun protection.

And don't forget...

  • Avoid direct sunlight in its most intense hours, between 11am to 3pm
  • Use clothing, sun hats and glasses to protect your skin
  • Apply even on cloudy days as harmful UV rays still reach your skin
  • Seek advice on medication, as some increase skin sensitivity to the sun
  • Take care around water or sand which can reflect the sun’s UV rays
  • Apply after sun products to soothe and help the skin recover
