Saturday's Beauty Before Aging ~ 6 Busted Myths About Sunscreen!!!

Okay! So its now Summer Time and that means Sun Time. And to be real honest I never have been one to worry about the sun and the damage it can cause to your skin. I know...shame on me!  But I'm here to tell you that has all changed. When I look in the mirror and see the lady looking back at me....she's looking a little older and wants to know what she could of done and should of done to look a little smoother. One of those things would be to have used sunscreen. But I was always one of those who wanted to be Tan and NOT be a ghost! I thought that sunscreen would keep me from tanning and I would always look pastie. But that is not true. The damage that sun causes can be life altering. And I don't want that for myself or for you! So here are 6 Sunscreen myth buster for you!  There are 2 types of ultraviolet light. There is UVB which causes sunburn and UVA which penetrates the skin on a much deeper level and this one is the wrinkle causer. However both UVB & UVA cause skin cancer. 

Glorious Day!

What a glorious day it is today!

I just love the rain because we need it so badly....but it is always such a blessing to receive the sunshine after a few days of clouds and rain.  Isn't it?

Well today I went outside and took a look around. 

It is so amazing how awesome things are after a rain.  Everything just seems so much greener and fresher than ever before.

There is a tree that I just looked at two days ago, outside my kitchen window.  It had just started to bud out little bitty tiny leaves. So small you had to look really hard to see them.  While I was out in the backyard this morning I took another look at it and WOW!  The tree has gone from bare with just a few buds to boom!  It has leaves....real leaves on the branches now!  I know that probably seems so silly to some...but I guess I never really took note to just how quickly our scenery changes here in Texas.

Take a moment out of your busy day today or tomorrow and  just take in all the beauty that nature has in store around you.

We so often take what God has given us for granted don't we?....even the simplest and smallest of things like the leaves on a tree.

Go outside right now and tell me what you see that you had never really ever taken note of.....

Blessings!
