I know I'm supposed to wear sunscreen, but...

We all know now that regardless of your skin tone you must wear a broad-specrum sunscreen. But let's face it, many sunscreens out there are white, thick and smell funny. And if you have brown skin, the may make you look grey or blue! So it is no wonder that many of our clients quietly admit that they are not good about wearing sunscreen. Aside from the potential risks of skin cancer, sun exposure leads to premature aging of the skin as well as pigmentation issues like sunspots, or in darker individuals, darkening of existing marks on the skin. Also, over time, pores become larger, the skin gets rougher in texure and vessels on the face may become visible. At Isis, we have found the answer! Cosmedix Reflect is a spray-on sunscreen that provides #30 SPF but is light and goes on beautifully! It leaves absolutely no ashy or grey/blue look on even the darkest of skin tones. It has no odor, is non-greasy and you really cannot feel it on your skin. It is so easy to use and you don't have to worry about those streaks or globs that other sunscreens leave behind. Just spray and go!
