SPF & Aging Gracefully: Why Sunscreen Should Be Your BFF (Even at the Beach)

Summer’s coming—and your skin deserves a little extra love. Discover why sunscreen is one of your best anti-aging tools (especially during menopause), plus my favorite tinted SPF + primer that makes morning routines a breeze!


Let’s talk about something that’s not-so-secretly one of the most powerful anti-aging tools we have…
☀️ SUNSCREEN ☀️

I know, I know. It’s not new or flashy, but trust me—it’s essential. Especially now that summer is around the corner and we’re all craving a little extra Vitamin D (or a beach walk, in my case 🌊).

But here’s the real deal:
UV rays are sneaky. They accelerate fine lines, wrinkles, dark spots, and break down collagen—the stuff that keeps our skin plump and youthful. And even on cloudy days, your skin still needs protection.

And since hormone changes during menopause can make our skin thinner, drier, and more sensitive, sun protection becomes even more important.

My Favorite Find: SPF + Primer in One

If you’re like me and want something quick, effective, and non-greasy that doubles as a makeup primer, you’ll love this product:


TiZo3– a tinted primer/sunscreen. A combination of Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide give an SPF of 40, and the tint adjust to every skin tone! It goes on smooth, has broad-spectrum SPF protection, and gives your skin a soft, healthy glow.

Quick Tips for Smart Sun Protection:

✅ Apply SPF every single morning—even if you’re indoors.
✅ Reapply every 2 hours if you’re out and about.
✅ Don’t forget your neck, chest, and the tops of your hands!
✅ Wear a hat and sunglasses for extra protection.

A little SPF goes a long way when it comes to protecting your glow and aging with grace. So go ahead—soak up the joy, not the damage. 😎

See you at the beach!
