i tried sunscreen like once years ago

it was super weird , left like this white filmy looking mess on my skin that I couldn't rub in
it wouldn't absorb

i just concluded that it isn't for dark skin and never messed with it again
woulda been walkin out the house lookin like i had dried up nut on my mug

but i think i just got the wrong brand or something. we can't just walk in and pick ANYTHING up off the shelf and expect it to to be a tea. :omf:
Sounds like you used a physical sunscreen. Those are the ones that have you out there looking like an MJ fool.

:omf:

Chemical sunscreens don't do that, which is what I usually use on my face. Black Girl Sunscreen is a chemical mess.

Whooooo I love CHATTING about Sunscreen and skincare haha

If you don't want to use it for aesthetics definitely use it for health
The way the ozone layer is depleting letting in more and more rays people are getting burnt and skin cancer rates are vetting higher every year even in black people

I learnt from my dermatology placement  to make it easier for you to remember

UVA-ageing
UVB-burning

The higher the amount of melanin the higher the protection, I think I read that the average black person melanin that's equivalent to about an average of SPF5, that means they can stay 5 times longer in the sun than a white person without getting burnt, but that's STILL inadequate protection

UVA rays penetrate deep in the skin and cause DNA changes that could lead to cancer and wrinkles, dark spots etc whilst UVB rays tan and burn the skin, that light cute tan is actually skin damage, it's your skins response to protect yourself, even when the tan fades the skin cells have already damaged.

I use SS every morning all year round, it's like brushing my teeth at this point.

I use the Skin Aqua during the winter because it's a TAD heavier and the water gel during the summer because it's light but they are probably the best sunscreens out there.
Bitch it's midnight but now I wanna slather myself in some
