A little scary! ? Mask life and spring UV rays

ちょっと怖い!? マスク生活と春の紫外線

It's been 2 years since we've been wearing masks due to the coronavirus, and the freezing cold is gradually getting better, and the number of warm and sunny days is increasing. I think it's about time that the warmth invites you to go out and soak up the sun once in a while.
If you're underestimating spring's ultraviolet rays because the sunlight is soft...wait a minute! Did you know that ultraviolet rays rain down on you in spring as much as in summer?

If you continue to be exposed to spring UV rays without realizing it, the ``mask stains'' created by wearing a mask for a long time will be piled up with UV ray stains, and before you know it, you will have a parade of stains.
Before that happens, let's acquire the correct knowledge about spring skin and UV rays.

Trivia about UV rays
ultraviolet light

There are two types of ultraviolet light that reach the ground.

  • UVA waves <br>Most of the ultraviolet rays that fall on the ground are UVA waves, and they increase rapidly from spring onwards. It can penetrate clouds, glass, and of course masks , and even on cloudy days and indoors, it can damage your skin. It can also cause your skin to lose its firmness and elasticity.
  • UVB waves gradually increase from spring and reach their peak in summer. It damages skin cells and DNA, contributing to skin aging. It is also said to be the cause of stains .

During the winter, the stratum corneum dries and its barrier function decreases, making the skin more susceptible to external stimuli such as ultraviolet rays in the spring. Since it's spring, we need UV protection !

How to protect your skin from UV rays in spring
Moisturizing/protection
  • Increase the moisture content of the skin's moisturizing stratum corneum and improve its barrier function. By promoting skin turnover, the barrier function of the stratum corneum is stabilized. At this time of year, we recommend using two types of lotion to increase your moisturizing and whitening power.
  • Skin protection <br>After applying lotion, apply emulsion or cream to retain moisture in the stratum corneum, protect the skin surface, and enhance the skin's barrier function. Furthermore, finish your look with a makeup base and foundation that has UV protection .

It's not time to let your guard down just because you're wearing a mask or the sun isn't strong yet. Start today by taking measures to protect your skin from UV rays, and enjoy spring to the fullest.
