Taking care of your rich melanin skin this summer

What are the best practices for sunscreen application?

Sunscreen should be applied every day, no matter what. It's one of the most important steps in a skincare routine, and it's especially crucial for those with melanin-rich skin tones.

When applying sunscreen, remember to use enough. Most people don't apply enough sunscreen, which is why it's so important to use a generous amount. A good rule of thumb is to apply sunscreen whenever you'd put on moisturizer.

Many sunscreens can leave a white cast on darker skin tones, but that doesn't mean you have to skip out on sunscreen altogether. There are plenty of sunscreens specifically designed for melanin-rich skin that won't leave your skin looking ashy or discolored.

When it comes to finding the best sunscreens for melanin-rich skin tones, it's important to look for products that will hydrate your skin while also providing SPF protection.

A great option includes Sheer Flesh Spf Serum! Hydrating Sunscreen, which is perfect for those with dry or sensitive skin. It's lightweight and provides broad-spectrum SPF 35 protection.
