Skincare Expert Urges Sunscreen Use to Combat Aging and Skin Damage

KUALA LUMPUR – A local skincare expert, Dr. Aen, recently highlighted the critical importance of daily sunscreen application for maintaining healthy skin and preventing premature aging. In a recent video, Dr. Aen emphasized that neglecting sunscreen can lead to various skin issues, including dark spots, wrinkles, and damage to the skin's protective barrier. She underscored that these problems may not appear immediately but can manifest significantly after the age of 25, potentially necessitating costly aesthetic treatments. Dr. Aen provided key criteria for selecting an effective sunscreen. She advised consumers to look for products with a minimum SPF of 30 to protect against UVB rays (which cause sunburn) and a PA rating of at least PA+++ for protection against UVA rays (which contribute to aging). Furthermore, she stressed the importance of choosing a 'broad-spectrum' sunscreen that covers both UVA and UVB, ensuring comprehensive protection. For those residing in humid climates like Malaysia, Dr. Aen recommended opting for non-sticky formulations for comfort. She concluded by showcasing Luqfa Beauty Sunscreen as an example of a product meeting these criteria, noting its SPF50, PA+++, broad-spectrum coverage, and non-sticky texture that leaves no white cast, promoting a healthy, glowing complexion.
