Here’s how to know if you are using enough sunscreen

It’s important to protect your skin when you are outside, whatever the weather, but dermatologists now advise you should wear sunscreen indoors too. This is because UVA rays can still cause damage, photoaging and age spots through your windows. By using the right sunscreen, you’re giving your skin enough protection against free radicals, and prevent other skin damages that could result from prolonged Sun exposure. When do I need to use sunscreen? Lots of people only use sunscreen when they are on holiday or going somewhere they know will be sunny. Only 10% of US adults use sunscreen daily, and almost half never use it – this is an alarming number! Sunscreen should be a daily and essential part of your skincare routine. Without the proper protection, too much Sun exposure can cause all sorts of unnoticeable damage to our skin – even when we’re indoors.

HIFU Facelift: What to do Before & After Treatment

HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) facelifts are a form of non-surgical facial facelift treatment in Singapore. It uses ultrasound energy to rapidly heat up the targeted tissue from below the skin’s surface.   This effectively stimulates the production of the protein collagen, which are responsible for the elasticity of the skin. By increasing the collagen levels, wrinkles can be smoothened out, whilst achieving firmer, tighter skin.   As is usually the case with treatments using energy waves, the aftercare and preparation play essential roles towards satisfactory results. Most notably, aftercare should be taken seriously to significantly reduce potential unwanted side effects and influence the extent of the results.  Is HIFU facelift facial in Singapore safe and effective? HIFU facelifts are considered to be very safe, especially if done by a trained professional, as even the potential side effects are mild. These include redness and increased sensitivity, but wi

How to Tame Frizzy Hair in Singapore

Frizzy hair is common in Singapore and can be nearly impossible to tame. After having styled hair for hours for an important function, you step out for a moment and- poof, they go crazy! There may not be a permanent remedy that could tame the frizz but there are preventive measures you can adopt to effectively manage the flyaways and regain the healthy, luscious look for your locks. These almost always begin with the hair products you use. Triggers for frizzy hair in Singapore The hair is a complex structure enclosed in an outermost layer called the cuticle. This cuticle is made up of overlapping scales which align themselves flat and protect the hair under normal healthy conditions. When dehydrated, this cuticle becomes weak and breaks easily with the friction between the hair strands. In the presence of moisture, the scales rise independently to absorb as much water as they can, hence the frizzy appearance. Flyaways are small hair-strands that feel rough, coarse, and are terribly und

5 Easy Ways to Prevent Hair Loss in Singapore

Many men and women will gripe about either losing their hair or having their hair look less luscious than it did in their youth by the time they turn 50. The simple explanation for this is that over time, the individual strands of hair become finer due to changes in the hairs’ density. Thankfully, there are some natural ways to prevent hair loss in Singapore. #1: Scalp massages improve blood circulation Whenever you’re in the shower or in a bathtub, take a couple of minutes more to just massage the soap into your scalp.

Not to mention, head massages are soothing and therapeutic, which have been proven to regulate stress and hormonal balance. #2: A good diet goes a long way in preventing hair loss  Want to know the one of the simplest ways to prevent hair loss in Singapore?
