Emily’s Sunscreen Suggestions

Posted in Skin Care Products, Staff Personal Favorites

My name is Emily and I work as the receptionist at the front desk at Dr. Mills’ office. My favorite way to enjoy a sunny day is to get together with a girlfriend and have an adventure. We start at the beach (we choose a different one to experience every week ranging from Huntington Beach all the way down to San Diego) then after laying out we rent beach cruisers or kayaks and explore the area and, of course, shop! Then we find a fun new place to have a light healthy lunch and as the sun goes down and it turns to night we find a fun local spot to grab drinks. Whenever I spend a full day in the sun, I wear a boat load of sunscreen.

Dr. Mills always notices if we get too much sun! He does a great job of educating his staff and patients about the danger of sun damage to our appearance and our health. I wear my favorite sunscreen in the world, SkinCeuticals Physcial Fusion UV Defense SPF 50. It has a tint that lets me skip out on wearing any foundation or mineral powders for a carefree day at the beach without having to reapply too often. It also makes me look a lot tanner than I am which is always a plus when you’re on the beach! Not to mention, in order to get true UVA defense you need a sunscreen with Titanium and Zinc Oxide in them. They are the only two things actually proven to deflect UVA rays. They are the two top ingredients in Physical Fusion UV Defense SPF 50! In order to get the most out of my skin care I always apply an antioxidant serum underneath my sunscreen each morning. The combination of the two is a match made in heaven and it creates the best protection for your skin a girl could ask for!
