As a dermatologist, I cannot stress enough how important it is to make wearing sunscreen a daily habit. This is especially true if you have hyperpigmentation, which can be exacerbated by sun exposure.
Even on cloudy or rainy days, harmful UV rays can penetrate through the clouds and cause damage to your skin. By consistently using a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher, you can protect your skin from sun damage, reduce the risk of skin cancer, and prevent hyperpigmentation from worsening.
Make it a part of your daily routine, just like brushing your teeth or washing your face. Your skin will thank you for taking care of it in the long run. Stay safe, stay protected, and enjoy the sun responsibly!

I have hyperpigmentation I think. The skin color in my forehead is white in some parts. Should I still wear sunscreen everyday even though I don’t go outside at all.
I only recommend sunscreen when you have sun exposure. If you work directly in front of a window sunscreen can be helpful.
if you work near a window, wear sunscreen
sun exposure isnt just direct exposure but it can be bounced by your surroundings. this is why sun preventive habits like wearing hats and long-sleeved clothing also help.
i also personally love using sun screen even though i work in an office and have minimal sun exposure (prob 1 hr/day tops) because it kind of doubles as a moisturizer for me.
Did you just mix the sunscreen into your lotion?
No I did not mix my sunscreen lotion. I do have sunscreens that have a lotion like consistency☺️
Oh, ok. I thought that was some lotion in the video. Do you have a video where you mention sunscreens for African Americans?
