Sun Care and Protection
The # 1 reason I love Black Girl Sunscreen, it does not leave a white cast on dark skin tones! This come in SPF 30-45 and SPF 50 for kids.
"There is a myth that black people and POC don’t need sunscreen because of the melanin in our skin, but there are a number of reasons why sunscreen can be helpful for dark skin. Unfortunately, many people with dark skin have a hard time finding a sunscreen that doesn’t leave a white or gray cast, so this one was made specifically for darker skin tones to avoid that issue." – Jasmine Seales,
I will admit, there are times that I've spent long periods in the sun and missed reapplying sunscreen. I use after sun gel anytime I’ve been outdoors for an extended period and have found that it can help nip the symptoms of potential #sunburn in. Great for people who spend a lot of time outdoors and people in sunny regions.
Pro-tip: "Keep a bottle in the fridge for an added cooling sensation.” – Tess Catlett.
