Why SPF is Still the Most Important Step in Your Routine
May marks Skin Cancer Awareness Month, an important reminder that the most powerful skincare product you can use is also one of the simplest: SPF.
At Tahnee Raine, we talk a lot about advanced skin treatments, restoring volume, and targeted rejuvenation, but none of that matters without daily protection. Sunscreen is not just for summer or beach days. UV rays are present year-round, and they quietly contribute to signs of premature ageing, pigmentation, inflammation, and long-term damage to the skin’s DNA.
What’s Really Happening Beneath the Surface
UVA rays are the culprits behind deeper skin ageing, breaking down collagen and elastin, while UVB rays are responsible for sunburn and surface damage. Both increase your risk of skin cancer, which is why broad-spectrum protection is essential.
Our Clinic-Approved SPF Picks
Choosing an SPF isn’t one-size-fits-all. We recommend options that are high-performing but also comfortable to wear every day, even under makeup:
-
Airy Day – Pretty in Zinc SPF50+ – a lightweight zinc-based sunscreen with a sheer finish
-
Airy Day – Golden Glow SPF50+ – your go-to for warmth and radiance
-
Airy Day – Pearl Glow SPF50+ – subtle luminosity with a soft glow
-
Airy Day – Bronze Glow SPF50+ – a sun-kissed tint with serious protection
- Airy Day — Clear as Day SPF50+ — invisible finish, no white cast
All are broad-spectrum, SPF50+, cruelty-free, and designed to feel good on the skin, not just sit on it.
Pairing SPF with Your Skin Plan
If you’re investing in treatments wearing SPF daily is critical to preserve your results and protect healing skin. It’s the first line of defence, and the last step you should skip.
A Thoughtful Approach to Skin Protection
Sun protection is skincare. It’s prevention. And it’s one of the most effective ways to care for your skin both now and in the future.
