It is useless to invest in other cosmetic products (skincare) if you do not apply sunscreen daily to protect your skin.

The assertion that sunscreen is the essential pillar of any beauty routine is scientifically indisputable. UV exposure is estimated to be responsible for nearly 80% to 90% of the visible signs of premature skin aging, such as loss of firmness or the appearance of pigment spots. Regarding clinical evidence, a benchmark randomized controlled trial conducted by Hughes et al. over 4.5 years (published in the Annals of Internal Medicine) demonstrated that daily application of broad-spectrum sunscreen reduces visible skin aging by 24% compared to occasional use. Furthermore, a prospective study published in Dermatologic Surgery by Randhawa et al. shows that daily use of an SPF over one year improves skin clarity and texture by 40% to 52%, thus revealing a regenerative effect. Finally, the use of 100% mineral filters is particularly validated by expert opinion for correcting the appearance of redness while respecting the skin barrier of reactive or fragile skin. Therefore, not using sun protection effectively renders the other efforts in your skincare ritual futile.
