If you do just one thing for your skin every day, let it be applying sunscreen. More than just a beach-day essential, sunscreen is a year-round shield that helps prevent premature aging, sunburn, and skin cancer. According to the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, daily use of sunscreen significantly reduces the risk of developing squamous cell carcinoma and can cut melanoma risk in half.

Dermatologists recommend using a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher, even on cloudy days. A review published in The New England Journal of Medicine highlighted the visible effects of long-term sun exposure with a striking case study of unilateral dermatoheliosis—where one side of a man’s face aged drastically faster due to years of driving without sunscreen protection (NEJM case study).
To protect your skin:
-
Apply sunscreen every morning as the final step in your skincare routine.
-
Reapply every two hours when outdoors.
-
Use a variety of mineral and natural sunscreen depending on your skin type and preferences.
Your future self will thank you—for smoother skin, fewer wrinkles, and a dramatically lower risk of skin cancer.
