Hi Roopashree,
I am a 31-year-old working woman.
I regularly apply sunscreen right before stepping out of the house.
Recent studies warn the skin is also prone to damage caused by blue light which is emitted by electronic devices like laptops and phones.
Do you advise wearing sunscreen indoors as well?
Teresa

Ans:

While the excess use of electronic devices will definitely have some side effects, constantly layering the skin might is not the solution.

 We often tend to look at our skin as a sign of beauty, but don’t forget its most important function is to breathe out toxins, release sweat to maintain body temperature.

When we block the skin with various layers, we don’t allow it perform these functions, which leads to skin problems like pimples, rashes, etc.

When you step out, nourish your skin with pure essential oils like carrot seed oil (38-40 SPF) or pure aloe vera gel (20 per cent protection) mixed with pure almond oil; these offer good protection and nourish the skin as well.

To keep the skin hydrated when you are indoors, use cold pressed light coconut oil or any good quality lotion in case of dryness.
