Sunscreen: Your Skin’s Everyday Superpower

When it comes to skincare, few products are as essential—or as underrated—as sunscreen. Whether it's sunny, cloudy, rainy, or snowy, sunscreen should be a non-negotiable part of your daily routine. Here’s why—and how to apply it the right way.

☀️ Why Sunscreen Matters

UV rays don’t take days off. Even on overcast days, up to 80% of UV rays can penetrate your skin. Prolonged exposure without protection can lead to premature aging, sunburn, hyperpigmentation, and increased risk of skin cancer. A broad-spectrum sunscreen helps protect against both UVA (aging) and UVB (burning) rays.

✅ How to Apply It Correctly

  1. Apply generously. For your face alone, use about a nickel-sized amount. Don’t forget your ears, neck, and hands!

  2. Make it the last step in your skincare routine, before makeup.

  3. Reapply every 2 hours, especially if you're outdoors or sweating.

  4. Use SPF 30 or higher for daily protection. If you’re spending extended time outside, SPF 50+ is even better.

🌤 Bonus Tip

Yes, you need sunscreen even indoors—UV rays can come through windows. And if you're using active ingredients like retinol or AHAs, sunscreen is a must to protect your skin.

Bottom line? Sunscreen is your skin’s best daily defense. Give your skin the love it deserves—don’t skip it.
