I know, harsh words from your resident skincare junkie—harsh, but true. Let me break it down for you. What is SPF? SPF stands for sun protection factor, which is the theoretical time one could spend in the sun without getting sunburned while wearing an SPF of that amount. So, for example, an SPF of 30 means […]
