You think you are following your skin care routine very well?  You use sunscreen, choose good quality makeup with SPF and wear hats when exercising outdoors. Wait a second; you could not be using these skin care treatments as they are supposed to be used.

·         Lip Gloss:
Shiny, yummy and glossy lips may look pretty while sitting outdoors, but side by side causes damage to your skin. Lip gloss reflects the sun rays thus creating harm by increasing your sun exposure. Therefore you should better look for lip products like lip gloss or lipsticks with SPF for protected puckers.




·       Skin care Products:
Vitamin A based skincare products (like retinols and Retin-A) works great for clearing acne and softening fine lines and wrinkles, but they also make your skin extra sensitive to sun exposure. You should take extra care of yourself with your SPF application and wear a hat for protection against sun.



·         Perfume:
Some perfumes contain bergamot fragrance that causes brown spots on your skin when it combines with the sun. Therefore you should spray perfume on your clothes instead of directly spraying it on your skin.
