By Dr. Ragini Puvvala, MBBS | DDVL — Consultant Dermatologist
Think sunscreen is optional? 😎 Let’s bust some skin-damaging myths and glow smarter! 💖
💭 Myth 1: Sunscreen is only for summers.
🔥 Fact: UV rays don’t take holidays! Even on cloudy or rainy days, they sneak through — so wear it every single day!
💭 Myth 2: Dark skin doesn’t need sunscreen.
🌈 Fact: Melanin helps, but not enough! Pigmentation, tanning, and even skin cancer can affect all skin tones. Protect your glow!
💭 Myth 3: SPF 100 lasts all day.
⏰ Fact: Sorry, no magic number here! Reapply every 2–3 hours — that’s how you keep your skin truly guarded.
💭 Myth 4: My makeup has SPF, that’s enough!
💋 Fact: Unless you’re wearing layers of foundation, it won’t cut it. Always use a proper sunscreen underneath for full coverage!
💭 Myth 5: Sunscreen causes acne.
🌿 Fact: Not true! Pick gel-based or oil-free sunscreens — they protect your skin without clogging pores!
✨ Dr. Ragini’s Golden Rule:
“Sunscreen first, makeup later — and your skin will thank you forever!” 💫
