You know that if you live in a tropical country, sun protection is of essence. I’m not just talking about cover-ups and umbrellas–we live in a humid country so hiding under layers of clothing could mean feeling sticky and not smelling so fresh. I know you don’t want that.
I bet you’ve been told by your mom or an older sister that you need to wear sunblock. Gone are the days when sunblock just used to be an essential for beach trips. I’m happy that more people are realising the importance and benefits of wearing sun protection every day. You see, the sun can dry out your skin and cause premature ageing. Just watch the video below:
Are you sure you still want to fry yourself under the sun?I asked some friends (the men especially) why they have qualms about applying sunblock. Here’s what I got:–It’s sticky. Ang init init.–Parang weird siya kasi lalaki ako-Nakakatamad. I just forget. I didn’t have much trouble with girls. There’s sunblock, a protective foundation, powder with SPF–yeah the girls are covered. I have to admit that I don’t like layering though. I prefer using an all-in-one product or use sunblock under a dusting of powder. I can never pile on sunblock+foundation+powder. I feel like a cake.
