Shiseido Urban Environment UV Protection Cream

Sunscreen is something we usually only think of when heading to the beach or spending a long day in the sun, but the reality is that we should be using products with SPF in them every single day. Sun damage is a real problem. Beyond the impact on our health, it can also do damage to your skin, including fine lines, wrinkles, and sun spots. And that means you will want to include a daily product that includes SPF.

My favorite option is Shiseido’s Urban Environment UV Protection Cream Broad Spectrum SPF 40. I received it as a sample after heading into a Sephora, and it was the greatest thing I could have ever tried. Not only is this products lightweight, but it helps keep my skin moisturized, which is important.

And if you are trying to limit the number of products you incorporate into your beauty routine, then I suggest this at the very least. Not only is it a perfect day cream, but it can be worn under makeup without issue.

Just like any other face cream, a little bit goes a long way. Simply wash your face and before doing anything else, apply a thin layer of the cream over all of your face and neck. At the end of the day, all you have to do is wash your face and you are good to go.

I think once you try this product, you won’t want to use anything else. And I really feel as if it works well with other products, which is a true bonus.
