One of my big bugbears with facial products is the often completely remiss lack of an SPF in the formulation. Sun protection is just essential these days, and the unseen damage you have at twenty is definitely rearing its ugly head by the time you're thirty. So it's just something that should be used across the board.
NARS have obviously heard the pleas of us wrinklies world-wide and they've launched a brand new foundation primer. It provides full spectrum of sun protection against both UVA and UVB rays with a combined SPF 20 and PA++. It also has additional antioxidant protection helps to fight free radical damage. I think a product like this is a must if your usual moisturiser and foundation doesn't provide sun protection. It means you don't have to change from trusted products, but you will be doing yourself a lot of favours and your skin will thank you for it in years to come.

You don't even have to use it under makeup as NARS say it will work just as well with foundation, powder or even alone. Excellent news for the lazyarses out there - i.e. me. You'll get this in Brown Thomas and it's retailing in the States for $33, which means it's possibly going to be a good bit more expensive in euro terms here.
