Do you want to hit the beach or swimming with your family? First and foremost, for a summerventures 101 - Bring your sunscreen! Weather forecast has it that the heat is higher than normal. 

Sunscreen is the number one skincare product associated with summer. As the sun shines brighter, temperature goes higher, and the days become longer, it's best to be prepared and protect your skin the best way you can. Not many people, however, know what is written on the sunscreen label. To make the most of your time under the sun, here are a few things to know about your favorite sunscreen lotion.

The UVB Rays
Most people think that the Sun Protection Factor is everything there is to check in a sunblock-- and it does count a lot. The SPF measures the product's ability to block UVB rays, which are related to sunburn and skin cancer. SPF, however, only measures UVB rays. It does not have much effectiveness when it comes to UVA rays.

The UVA Rays
UVA is often the most misunderstood part of sunscreen formulations. This is present every day, and can penetrate through glass windows. Much like UVB, it is also linked to higher risk of skin cancer. Unlike UVB, however, UVA does not get filtered by the ozone. UVA doesn't cause sunburn, but it can lead to skin darkening and aging, as the rays penetrate deeper into the skin, affecting the collagen.

Dermplus sunscreens, for example, protect against both UVA and UVB rays, giving you complete sun protection in one go.

The SPF
However, it does not mean that an SPF 15 sunscreen is half as effective as an SPF 30. The difference in the SPF numbers also takes into account UVB filtering capabilities. The SPF number measures how well a sunscreen protects against UVB rays. If your skin would normally burn after staying 10 minutes under the sun, using an SPF 15 sunscreen would allow you stay out under the sun for about 150 minutes (a factor of 15 times longer) without burning your skin.

SPF 15 can filter about 93% of UVB rays, SPF 30 about 97%, SPF 50 about 98%, and so on. The type you choose depends on your skin tone, how sensitive your skin is to the heat, and how easily you get color on your skin.

This summer, enjoy the best sunventures ensuring you get the most out of your sunscreen lotion.

Dermplus Sunscreen comes in different varieties to suit your needs. Whether you want an everyday sunscreen for indoor use, or one that will protect you when doing extreme outdoor activities, there's a product that's right for you.

The Right Amount
For the sunscreen to work as advertised, you have to apply a liberal amount on all exposed areas of the skin, and re-apply it every after two hours or when you feel it has worn off.

Should I Write A Letter To Ellen DeGeneres?

I've been thinking these past days, if I should or should not write a letter to Ellen. She's Ellen DeGeneres, by the way! I know it's a leap of faith. As I have read this post in her website:

Do you want Ellen to Make Your Dreams Come True? Sometimes dreams need a little Ellen touch! If there's something you've always wished for, whether it's tickets to see Adele, the chance to play an Ellen Show game, or even a tropical vacation, Ellen can make your wish come true. Tell us what your dream is here!!
It's very tempting! Yes, I have a dream and everyone in this world is. My dreams is not a vacation, it's not a ticket to watch Adele's concert and it's not the chance to be in Ellen Show and watch her.  My dream is for me to have a laboratory test and curettage. I have a polyp and or cervical cyst. It's more than 2 months since I was diagnosed. I tried to make ends meet, financially. I even asked for help from the people I know, family and relatives. Only few had answered and I understand that.

My OB-Gyne wants to make sure that I am 100% able for curettage because of the risk factors - obesity, my age and cardiomegaly (abnormal enlargement of the heart).

These are the suggestions for a cheaper hospital expenses, help and government aids. 
  • For Philhealth -  I am re-activating it now, voluntarily
  • Approach a politician - No, I am not that sort of person who rides the jeepney because it's election time.
  • Tala Hospital - This, is a good suggestion because PCSO office is within or near the hospital. But, you have to shell out money for new screen tests such as Pap smear, ultrasound and other laboratory tests. The location is too far from my family. If ever I had an operation, no one is available as my watcher for one night. Also, my thoughts are in my son.
Why am I doing this?
Financially incapable. I had no work, though. I blog, I farm Bitcoin, play an online game- hoping that I can earn by selling good items and alz (name of money in the game). My partner earns a little from watching an internet shop. He focuses on our food and son's needs especially in the  school expenses. Sometimes, he gave me money for fare and supplements. We are not married. That's the reason why he cannot use his Philhealth for me.

As of now, the total cash is very far from the amount I need for hospital bills and laboratory tests. The amount I need is Php 25,000.00. The total cash from loan and savings is Php 7,000.00 only.

I NEED YOUR HELP!
