Sunscreen Mistakes

Now for more on these sunscreen mistakes.

Sun exposure worsens pigmentation, is responsible for about 89% of the premature signs of aging, and some of our skincare products make the skin more sensitive ot the sun, so..PUT THAT SUNSCREEN ON, BOO.

Sunscreen is NOT a “little goes a long way” type of product. In order to get the SPF listed on the label, sunscreens are tested using 2 mg of sunscreen per cm2 of skin.

Use way less then that and you’re not properly protecting your skin. About ¼ teaspoon for your face, neck, and yes get them ears, too.

This post focuses on face, but just so you know, you need about a shot glass full for the body.

Don’t forget to reapply every two hours when outdoors or after getting super sweaty, swimming, crying (hey, it be one of those days sometimes), or otherwise getting your skin wet.

Were you making any of these mistakes? #ad DON’T LIE…lol. I’m loving The INKEY List's new sunscreen: it’s lightweight yet hydrating and my oily skin peeps out there—don’t let the “dewy” in the name scare you away—I have oily skin and didn’t find it to be heavy at all—I didn’t even feel it after it was applied. Would YOU try it? Tell me below! Grab it at @sephora for $14.99 via the link in my bio @stylenbeautydoc or by following me on the @shop.ltk app.

Omg the sunscreen as primer tho — Ive just noticed how it blurs my pores, evens skin tone, and generally means I dont have to wear foundation on most days

I only use sunscreen when I’m gonna be out in the sun for a long time. And I know that I’m gonna pay for it later but I don’t wear make up and sunscreen is so greasy so I don’t like the powder on top of it and how the hell are you supposed to reapply? I know they have powder sunscreens but again who has time for all this?

That the problem a little don't go a long way and it can be expensive and that why I am slow to use it unless I am actually sitting out in the sun.

Girl, I went to Morocco for a week. Just applying 2 pumps of spf 25 in the morning. I should have know better.

So let me see what the Inkey list can do for me. Yes, I will reapply it during the day😂
