I live next to a beach in Scotland. The amount of pastey white folk who are lobsterised, soaking in the star damage, right now is....frankly believable, people here will bbq in a light drizzle if it's over 14°C.

For now I look fabulous.

What about years from now? Your cellular growth will be many.

It may be.

Are you not concerned?

I worry only for now.

But later?

Later is not now.

Personally, not a fan of the star damage.

I went to Australia/New Zealand.

I now look 5 years younger. Not even exaggerating. I guess I look kinda young and I'm at an age where that's possible. But way more people have commented that I look younger than I am than back home.

The number of skin cancer clinics I saw in Australia was alarming.

Skin cancer capital of the world. And while we probably take sun protection much more seriously than other countries, soooo many people are still pretty complacent/lazy.

Slip, slop, slap friends. The sun is a deadly lazer

Star damage does incredible things to your skin such as getting rid of old skin layers, but next time try a lactic acid serum for a peeling.
