Another day of SOS (Science of Sephora) training, another round of oooh/ahhh facts! Today, we delved into the worlds of suncare and smilecare. As promised, here's some insider knowledge to keep in your pretty pockets.
-Most of your aging occurs before you turn 18 years old. (This made me shudder!)
-Only 33% of us wear sunscreen. (This should make everyone shudder! USE PROTECTION!)
-1 in 75 of us will be diagnosed with melanoma in our lifetime. Compare this to 1 in 600 in 1960.
-5 or more burns doubles your risk of skin cancer.
-Every time you reapply SPF, your protection time is halved. So: The longer you're out in the sun, the more frequently you have to reapply your sunscreen.
-To help whiten teeth, eat foods that require a lot of chewing, like apples, celery, and carrots, which act as natural exfoliants for the teeth.
-Teeth-grinding problem? Try GoSmile's PM toothpaste. It's infused with chamomile and lavender, which calm and keep you from fidgeting your jaw while you sleep.
