In Jamaica we have two types of seasons: hot and hotter. I don’t remember putting on a ton a sunscreen growing up as a child; probably because of the idea that “Black folx don’t need sun protection because we are already dark” myth. Oh yes, it sounds funny but I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been to the beach with my girlfriends and they’ve packed everything in their beach bags EXCEPT sunscreen.
So let’s make this clear:
Everyone needs to wear sunscreen
The sun does NOT discriminate so it is important that we all take
care of our skin year round but especially when the sun is blazing.I use the following: which is available at Pretty Faces.
I doubt I will ever switch to anything else. It is wonderfully moisturizing and we also have moisturizers in the same line that is just a great. When I break a sweat from working out, it doesn’t leave any residue. I can’t ask for anything more in a moisturizer. I tend to use this every day and even at night sometimes.
