Stay Sunny and Full of Shine While Protecting Your Skin

Whether a sun worshipper or a shade seeker, you must protect your skin from the elements. Our skin is constantly attacked by the damaging ultraviolet radiation emitted from the sun, free radicals from manufactured air pollutants, and natural forces. Whipping winds, drying cold weather, pore-clogging sweat and even stress, lack of sleep, bad habits, and poor nutrition can all bombard your skin. When we fail to take care of the biggest organ in our body, it appears weathered, aged, tired, and lackluster. It is in our own hands to put our best face forward.

At Parker Facial Rejuvenation and Wellness, we offer expert advice on both preventative and corrective care. Our team has extensively researched and personally tested the latest products to help you reveal your inner radiance and outer glow. We understand that healthy skin is not just about topical care but also about maintaining a balanced diet, staying hydrated, getting enough sleep, and managing stress. 

This week, we’re focusing on protective and restorative measures that can be directly applied to your face to combat damage and signs of aging due to sun exposure.


First and foremost, you should be wearing sunscreen every single day! Just because you are not sunbathing and drinking a piña colada on the beach doesn’t mean the sun’s harmful rays aren’t affecting your skin. However, this doesn’t necessarily mean you must coat your body with white, greasy sunscreen before diving into your day. Now, there are incredible new options for the application of sunscreen. What’s even better is that now there is a wealth of science to back up the production of new types of sunscreen products that are not chemical-ridden and more harmful to your skin than beneficial. Two brands, in particular, are Colorescience and MDSolarSciences.


Colorescience has created a revolutionary product line that offers a range of sun care, primers, foundations, pressed powder, cheek color, refreshing mists, illuminators, and lip shines, all containing sufficient SPF levels. Their formulations, which include clean, breathable minerals and mica compounded with antioxidants, peptides, and vitamins, are completely safe for even the most sensitive skin. By incorporating these products into your routine, you can freshen up and glow from the inside out, knowing that you are providing an excellent service to your skin. The products you put on your face should also protect it and not coat it with an array of talc, fillers, dyes, fragrances, and other harsh chemicals. With Colorescience, it’s as easy as the swipe of a soft brush across your skin to look radiant and be protected.


MDSolarSciences is another excellent product line that Parker Facial Rejuvenation and Wellness loves. Their mineral-based sunscreens are top-of-the-line and make your face look flawless upon application. They stay on during high-intensity water and land activities, like surfing, fishing, biking, trailblazing, and playing with your dog on a hot summer day. It feels like your bare skin but guarantees you are protected throughout your day, so you can feel confident in the sunshine and doing what you love.

At Parker Facial Rejuvenation and Wellness, we believe that health is about prevention, and we understand that prevention comes from all fronts, including oral health, skin care, and nutrition. Our team is committed to helping you achieve your optimal health through our specialties of dentistry, oral hygiene, and facial revitalization and care. Your skin health should be a priority, and we are here to support you every step of the way.

Thank you for sharing a smile with us this week! Stay tuned  for more on skincare related to anti-aging, corrective measures, nutrition, and healthy practices to help you obtain long-lasting luster.
