Let’s Talk About Sun Damage, Skin Repair, and Staying Radiant After 35

(Especially this Memorial Weekend—yes, I’m talking to you, poolside goddess!)

Hey friend,

Memorial Day weekend is here, and if you’re anything like me, your plans involve sunshine, something grilled, and maybe a nap in a lawn chair. But before you slather on tanning oil like it’s 1995 (please don’t), let’s have a quick chat about what that sunshine is doing to your skin—and how we can fix it.

Sun Damage: The Not-So-Fun Souvenir

Let me keep it real: sun damage is like that one ex who still tries to pop back into your life when things are finally going well. You don’t notice the problem right away, but give it time… hello wrinkles, sun spots, and skin that feels like it’s lost its bounce.

And the worst part? It can sneak up on you even when you're just driving or walking to the mailbox. Sneaky little UV rays.

After 35, Collagen Starts Ghosting You

Once we hit our mid-30s, our natural collagen production starts slowing down. It's like your skin’s construction crew went on break and never came back. That’s why we start seeing more fine lines, dullness, and sagging. But don’t panic—I’ve got reinforcements.

Here’s How We Re’Nue That Glow

At Re’Nue Wellness Bar, we’ve got a few tricks up our lab coat sleeves:

Microneedling – Like giving your skin a pep talk. It boosts collagen and helps smooth things out.
Chemical Peels – Out with the old, in with the fresh. Great for sun spots and uneven tone.
Custom Facials – Because your skin deserves a tailor-made spa day too.
IV Therapy – For when your skin needs a little “inside job” support. (Bonus: you get to relax while your glow-up drips in.)

These treatments are all about helping you feel like yourself again—refreshed, confident, and maybe just a little smug when someone asks, “What’s your secret?”

SPF: The Real MVP

If there’s one thing I want you to take away from this, it’s this: Wear. The. Sunscreen.

Every single day. Rain or shine. Even if you're just popping out for iced coffee. SPF is like relationship boundaries—it protects you even when you think you don’t need it.

***Tiff & Carly Favorite!!***

Your skin’s new BFF! This broad-spectrum SPF 30 sunscreen protects against harmful UVA/UVB rays *without* leaving a white cast (hence the “zero shade”). Lightweight, non-greasy, and reef-safe, it blends beautifully under makeup or worn solo. Perfect for everyday use—and essential if you love your skin.

Stay Sun-Safe (and Sassy) This Weekend

So while you're soaking up the long weekend, do your skin a favor:

Reapply sunscreen every two hours (set a timer, because time flies when you're sun-kissed)
Rock a big fabulous hat—channel your inner Hollywood starlet
And drink that water like it’s a margarita (hydration is the real beauty filter)

If you’re ready to start reversing sun damage and reclaim that healthy glow, I’d love to see your face (literally). Let’s chat, laugh a little, and make a plan that fits your skin and your lifestyle.

Because girl—you can’t turn back the clock, but you can glow right past it.
