Board-Certified Dermatologist Dr. Pearl Rimtepathip of MetroDerm in Atlanta is lending her expert voice to a timely and important skin care conversation, recently featured in Glamour’s article, “7 Best Sunscreens for Mature Skin, According to Dermatologists.” As sun protection continues to be one of the most critical components of any skin care routine – especially for aging skin – Dr. Rimtepathip’s insights help guide readers toward products that are both effective and elegant in formulation.
The article focuses on sunscreens specifically suited for mature skin, which often requires extra consideration due to increased sensitivity, dryness, and the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It emphasizes the importance of choosing formulations that not only protect against harmful UV rays but also complement the skin’s texture and overall health.
One standout product highlighted in the article is Peach & Lily Sun Cover Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30. Mineral sunscreens sit on the skin’s surface and physically block UV rays, making them a gentle option for sensitive or aging skin. However, they are often criticized for being thick or difficult to layer under makeup. Dr. Rimtepathip, who sees patients at MetroDerm’s Hiram location, addresses this common concern, noting that this particular formula breaks the mold. “Because of its lightweight texture, this is easily blended and diffused under makeup,” says Pearl Rimtepathip, MD. This makes it an excellent choice for daily wear, especially for those who want a smooth base under foundation.
In addition to cosmetic elegance, Dr. Rimtepathip also highlights the importance of ingredients when selecting a sunscreen for mature skin. Another top recommendation is EltaMD® UV Restore. “EltaMD UV Restore is an excellent choice for mature skin because it is a zinc-based mineral sunscreen, which is gentle,” says Dr. Rimtepathip. This makes it ideal for skin that may be more reactive or delicate over time. According to Dr. Rimtepathip, this product not only provides reliable sun protection but also supports overall skin health, aligning with the needs of patients seeking both preventative and restorative benefits.
Her contributions to the Glamour article underscore a broader message: sunscreen is not just a seasonal product but a daily essential for everyone, especially as skin matures. Consistent sun protection reduces the risk of skin cancer, while also preventing further signs of aging, including hyperpigmentation, loss of elasticity, and fine lines.
Dr. Rimtepathip’s expertise reflects her commitment to patient education and evidence-based skin care. At MetroDerm, she works closely with patients to develop personalized skin care routines that address their unique concerns while promoting long-term skin health. Her inclusion in a nationally recognized publication like Glamour highlights both her authority in the field and the growing demand for trusted Dermatological guidance in an often overwhelming skincare market.
