Being that the skin is our largest organ, we need to take care of it. Some individuals have no regard for their skin. Others are concerned because it is something that defines our age and our lifestyle choices. It is important for our mental health to get 10 minutes of sun everyday. However, too much sun can really harm us and our health. Sun block is a very important step in a skin care regimen that can not be forgotten, regardless of someone’s Fitzpatrick classification. Although darker skin tones have more melanin and natural sun protection, skin cancer is always going to a risk factor for all skin tones and skin types.
Cleanse the skin, exfoliate, tone, moisturize and don’t forget to protect the skin with SPF. Keep yourself hydrated internally and externally. Your body will thank you for it.
