　　A vain person slathers on SPF even when she's not going to the beach because she knows that it would shield her skin from the sun's deadly rays and prevent premature wrinkles and aging. If you're not so keen on saving your lovely skin and body, you probably don't have any idea about the sun's UV rays. The vanity, oh, the vanity, a husband may exclaim when his wife follows her cleanse, tone and moisturize daily skin regimen. Little does he know that she's just preserving her flawless skin so he can always be proud of his beautiful spouse. You men out there, we bet you would always a choose a young, pretty wife anytime over an aging lady whose skin was badly damaged by the sun.
