How damaging the sun really is, and why you dummies need to stop being so lazy and slather that sunscreen on PRONTO!! Breaking down the science and making it a little easier to digest for you. Love y’all!! MY BLOG: heycheri.livejournal.com MY DRESS www.hotmiamistyles.com ** Use the code “CHERI” during checkout for FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE!! NOTE: Stay out of the sun when it’s rays are the most harmful, like around noon. Early morning sun and late afternoon sun (5:00 and after) is great for the body to produce vitamin D! Q: Is it true that the rays can only penetrate the outermost layer of sunscreen on your face? Eg If I wear SPF 50 and then put on an SPF 10 foundation on top of it, will the sun’s rays stop at the foundation layer? Haha because this is what a skincare sales lady told me and I thought it sounded like a load of bull crap! A: First of all, that b*tch is an idiot and probably didn’t even know what she was talking about, because if she DID?? She would have been a bit more passionate about the sunscreen portion and not about the makeup portion. You can’t ADD UP SPF numbers like that to equal a STRONGER sunscreen. The SPF in your MAKEUP only protects against B-Rays! So things like sunburn, rashes, blahblahblah. If your makeup doesn’t specifically state that it protects against UVA as well (which it most likely doesn’t)?? Then it doesn’t!! And the UVA rays will still go deep into your skin and shrivel you up like a prune! Makeup with SPF in it is NOT a proper …
Sunscreen is the Most Effective Anti-Aging Method!

Hey! i have the aveeno one too! but did you hear about the EWG rating on sunscreen? they are annoying.. they said aveeno is bad. and same with the other major brand names.. they choose a bunch of no name brands that i never heard of as their top choice for low health risk and all the major brands name they basically said were bad for your health.. im still trying to figure out if they are really right.. by the way nice dress!
@MakeupByCheri

Good video you don’t sound like a huge dumbass like a lot of make up guru’s who just like the sound of their voice and babble on and on about nonsense.
you won’t get wrinkles as quickly, you will just die earlier cause sun screen lotion cause cancer. IMAO

I agree with you and i Dont agree with you.
I agree with you beacuse sun is 1 of the free radical that faster you skin Ageing.
I dont agree with you beacuse the sun is not the only radical that will make you look older. Air pollution is even bad as the sun. Poor diet will faster you Ageing. Stress is a radical too. But whatever we do, we will get wrinkels someday. nobody can stop the biological ageing.
wow this video was very informative and entertaining at the same time. good job! i learned a lot
..gonna go protect my skin now and read all the ingredients in my skin stuff
Thanks for doing this video very helpful I bought a sunscreen but it have oxybenzone and its an Aveeno brand. Can you please tell me what are the good ingredients.
yea you tell them
Awesome!! I am really looking forward to your skincare videos and reviews. I am 21, but very interested in starting anti aging prevention. I only learned about this when I was 18, and started wearing sunscreen at 19 but I still want to learn more and I liked this video alot!!
You get vitimin D from sun rays….
Protect your skin if you dont want wrinkles from the sun BUT!…
Make sure you take a vitamin D3 supplemeant to make up for it. !
Its prevents cancers, flus, colds and other illness. This is why we tend to fall more sick in the winter months… vitimin d deficeintcy… look it up x
What about when it’s winter/ snowing?
You aren’t necessarily protected against UVB (UVC doesn’t reach the earth’s surface) if your sunscreen protects against UVA. Some chemical filters only protect against UVA, some UVB and some a combination of both. Chemical filters (all those except titanium dioxide and zinc oxide) do not “block” the sun’s rays. They absorb them, then convert the energy into heat. Studies have shown that this process can actually cause free-radical damage and an antioxidant serum should be use to counter this.
@JizelleKa yes, because the sun is always preesent. The clouds only block 20% of sunrays.
In my country we don’t have too much sun in winter, that seems to have started already lol, it’s just clear grey sky without any obvious sunrays. Do I have to apply the sunscreen? I feel stupid like doing so.
$9 billion pharmaceutical giant Schering-Plough (Coppertone) reported sun-care related sales of $204 million in 2005, up 16 percent from 2004 and up 40 percent from 2003, making the division one of Schering-Ploughs best performers by percentage growth.
Cosmetic Corporations These giant cosmeceutical firms are driven by multibillion-dollar profits and are the leading purveyors of sun scare. These sunscreen manufacturers are marketing their products to block any and all UV exposure rather than simply for sunburn prevention. Sunscreen companies are enjoying record profits right now.
Scaring people out of the sun is a multibillion-dollar business. Smart Tan coined the term sun scare in 1996 to properly identify those who were distorting the truth about sunshines complex relationship with human health in order to scare you out of the sun. Some sun scare groups profit by marketing a distorted sun abstinence message, while others simply tell you to avoid any and all sun exposure because they dont trust you to make your own decision about proper sun care.
I have an Uncle that has down syndrome. He should be able to understand that his skin will become, so called, “retarded” because that’s what he is? You should consider these things when making another video.
i’ve got a question if u hav put on a spf moisturizer and then makeup pn top of tht on your face will u have to reapply the spf moisturizer throughout the day and wont that ruin the makeup when u put the spf moisturizer on top?
Sunscreen is an important issue and she raises a few good points here, but I don’t think you should believe what she says completely. She is not a dermatologist and I’m sure she got most of her information from online sites and magazines. She claims that free radicals attack the skin, but they are actually generated internally when molecular bonds split after sun exposure. I don’t like how she personifies UV rays and other terms to make the information “easier” to understand. It’s not cute!
i have never been such motivated to use sunscreen
but this video has done a great job
