Sun Cream Time!

As it gets warmer don't forget the sun block! Look out for both UVA and UVB protection. UVA rays cause the most damage and are the strongest. They cause skin cancer and wrinkles. UVB rays are the weaker rays but they still cause damage. You can thank these rays for burning. SPF tells you how long you can wait before  reapplying. If you are fairer you may need a higher SPF. For sensitive skin avoid chemical sun creams, although they have higher UVA protection and don't leave a white cast like physical sun creams they can irritate sensitive skin. When taking photos don't use physical as it make you look shiny and pale. Remember to protect your skin and stay sun safe. :D

Stack that Arm Candy!

A great idea is to stack your favourite bracelets together. This casual and easy look is trendy and adds colour to any outfit. Great bracelets for this look are wristbands and friendship bracelets.
