As a beauty editor, you learn right away that the secret to looking good in life is sunscreen. Every book screams it. Magazines too. Beauty pros disagree about almost everything else: Should you wash your face with water? (I say yes, unless you have super dry skin, then use a cream-based cleanser and a cotton ball). Is moisturizer really necessary? (Absolutely). Does lining the inside of your eyes make eyes appear smaller? (Teeny-tiny). But when it comes to sunscreen everyone agrees you should wear it every day, rain or shine, winter or summer. So here's a gentle reminder: Please wear a sunscreen of at least 15 SPF, every day and you'll thank yourself someday when your wrinkles aren't as deep as they are on the great beauties of your day.

My favorite sunscreen is La Roche Posay, (pictured left), a long-time favorite in Europe and now available in the United States. To buy, click here. Photo courtesy Pricegrabber.
