Why Sunscreen Deserves a Spot in Your Daily Routine

If there's one skincare product I wish everyone used consistently, it's sunscreen.

I get it, it's not the most ex-

citing step in your routine. It's easy to think you only need sunscreen when you're spending the day outdoors. But the truth is, your skin is exposed to UV rays every single day, even when it's cloudy or you're just running errands around town.

Living in Arizona, we get plenty of sunshine year-round, which means protecting your skin isn't just a summer habit, but a daily necessity.

Over time, sun exposure can contribute to fine lines, wrinkles, dark spots and loss of firmness. It can also undo the progress you're making with professional treatments and skincare products. That's why I always encourage my clients to think of sunscreen as an investment in their future skin. It only takes a few seconds to apply, and those few seconds can make a huge difference in the long run.

For everyday use, choose a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 and apply it as the final step in your morning skincare routine. If you'll be spending time outdoors, remember to reapply every two hours.
