The Best Anti-Aging Product Ever

I've discovered the best anti-aging product ever.  Are you intrigued?

"The best anti-aging product is..." drum roll please...

"Sunscreen," says dermatologist Fran E. Cook-Bolden, MD, director of the Skin Specialty Dermatology and the Ethnic Skin Specialty Group.

Why?

• It helps prevent dark spots, age spots, and hyperpigmentation problems from appearing or worsening.
• It protects the skin from UVA rays that are responsible for skin aging.

Dr. Cook-Bolden's main concern is getting sisters and other people of color to understand that they need to use sunscreen.

I met Dr. Cook-Bolden, who is co-author of Beautiful Skin of Color: A Comprehensive Guide to Asian, Olive and Dark Skin, at an event celebrating Dermablend's 30^th Anniversary.  An American dermatologist created Dermablend in 1981, and it is now the #1 dermatologist recommended cosmetic coverage brand, helping consumers with mild and severe skin imperfections, including hyperpigmentation.

Dermablend introduced plans to release two new products this year, including Smooth Indulgence Mineral Finishing Powder, which is available this month, just in time for the hot and humid summer. Smooth Indulgence Mineral Finishing Powder provides lightweight, translucent coverage with a soft matte finish.  It absorbs skin oils and allows the skin to breathe while evening out skin tone.  Check out my reviews of the new Smooth Indulgence Mineral Finishing Powder and the Smooth Indulgence Foundation, which has SPF 20 for sun protection.
