Myth 1: You Don’t Need Sunscreen on Cloudy Days

Up to 80% of UV rays still penetrate clouds. Skipping sunscreen is a fast track to
premature aging and damage.

Myth 2: Oily Skin Doesn’t Need Moisturizer

Stripping your skin of moisture only triggers more oil production. Use a lightweight, oilfree moisturizer instead.

Myth 3: Higher SPF Means You Don’t Need to Reapply

SPF 100 doesn’t mean you’re invincible. You still need to reapply every two hours,
especially outdoors.

Myth 4: A Base Tan Protects You

A tan is already a sign of skin damage. It doesn’t shield you from future harm—it makes
you more vulnerable.

Myth 5: Natural Oils Are Enough for Sun Protection

Coconut oil or other “natural” options are not substitutes for tested, broad-spectrum
sunscreen.

The Bottom Line

Good summer skincare is about consistency and using products backed by science. Don’t let
myths ruin your glow.
