Be Aware Of These Sunscreen Myths

On some level, you probably know that you need to wear sunscreen. That does not mean, however, you actually wear it.  In fact, when you are out and about sunscreen might seem like a hassle. What would get us all to wear the sunscreen we should?

Busting these sunscreen myths of which you should be aware may help motivate us all to use (and actually reapply) sunscreen this summer.

  • You Do Not Need It. Even if you do not spend a lot of time in the sun, you absolutely need to use sunscreen all the time. Every time you step out into the sun, you expose your skin to its harmful rays that could cause skin cancer and other skin damage.
  • My Makeup Has Enough SPF. Even if your face makeup contains sunscreen, that does not mean you should rely on it to protect your skin. In fact, the face of your skin is extremely fragile, meaning you should prioritize protecting it!
  • It Feels Gross. You may be avoiding sunscreen because you do not like the way it feels on your skin. There are, however, a number of different sunscreens made out of different formulas. Do not give up! Keep trying different brands until you find one that feels right on your skin.

We hope this will help motivate all of us to stay up on our sunscreen usage to protect our skin!
