SUN PROTECTION IS FASHIONABLE

Ever since the 1920's, when a bronzed Coco Chanel returned from a Mediterranean vacation and made a tan the hottest fashion accessory of the season, has it been a real problem to reverse the popular perception that a tan is not only more attractive but healthy. Yet sun damage is the number one cause of premature aging in women. It is also one cause of aging that you can control. It is absolutely vital to wear a product with sunscreen. Even in the dead of winter, you should never leave the house without sun protection. Ultraviolet light, even at low-level exposures, erodes the skin's support structure. It breaks down collagen, causing winkles and sagging. It stimulates the skin to create abnormal elastin fibers, so the skin loses it bounce. Prolonged exposure to UV light damages the skin cells' ability to divide properly and inhibits the growth of healthy cells.

UVA rays are responsible for photo aging and melanoma, the deadliest skin cancer. UVA penetrates deep into the underlying support structure of the skin. It also blasts apart collagen, destroys elastin, damages the immune system, and causes lines and wrinkles-all over the body. If you want protection from UVB and UVA, your sunscreen must list either titanium dioxide or zinc oxide. Titanium dioxide and zinc oxide are sunscreens considered by the FDA to offer "full-spectrum" protection, which means the product offers sufficient protection from both UVA and UVB rays.

La Bella Donna Loose Mineral Foundation bridges the gap between wellness and beaute. All ingredients are naturale and contain naturale sun protection. Micronized titanium dioxide is a key ingredient. It is found naturally in minerals and does not clog pores or dry out the skin. It works quite remarkably. Basically, it allows light to pass through the visible ray region while intercepting the ultraviolet rays. Micronized titanium dioxide guards against the damaging effects of ultraviolet rays, yet gives the skin a naturale looking finish. Research shows micronized titanium dioxide provides a naturale barrier to UVA and UVB radiation without irritation, burning or stinging
