steps to a fairer skin 2

I always believe that one of the essential ways to have a fairer skin is by applying sunscreen. Especially at Kampar where there are lakes all around, UV rays could easily reflects off of water and get tanned must quicker than other places ='( People with deeply pigmented skin, who rarely burn, should use sunscreen too. Even on a cloudy day,the clouds only block out the sun but not the UV rays. Maybe you will say that, cheh im still young ma, apply more mask then my skin will be fairer in a short time. But you will never know how much melanin has been accumulated under your skin until one day they all secretly climb up your face and you finally have freckles.

Many people thought that once you applied sunscreen,the next minute you are safe to be at outdoor. It's definitely a NO as you have to apply the sunscreen 30 minutes before you are going out so that it can be absorbed by the skin and less likely to wash off when you perspire.

And what is SPF? Sun Protection Factor gives you an idea of how long you can stay in the sun before getting burned.For instance, SPF of 15 lets you stay out 15 times longer than if you didn't have any sunscreen.

Few of these sunscreen are some i've tried before. Others i've already thrown the bottles. For the both Kose sunscree, of course i couldnt afford them. It's mummy who bought for me. But i reckon that the small blue colour bottle one is too oily for teenagers.I had acne problem after applying it >.<

For a more affordable series, i would strongly recommend Biore one. If you mostly stay indoor, SPF 25 (the green colour one) is the right one for you. Since it is in gel based, you could feel the freshness after applying it. I personally love the purple one because it's formulated to lock the hydration in your skin especially in air-conditioning room. But too bad it's not for sale in Malaysia and i could only buy it from Thailand. So, the blue one will be my alternative after the purple one is finished.

But one thing to remind, one of the strong ingredients in Biore sunscreen is Alcohol. Hence, moisturing step is very important to ensure that your skin will not be dehydrated by the alcohol ;)
