Why you should not skip sunscreen in winters

Ayushi Bisht

Many believe sunscreen is only necessary during summers—but that’s a myth.

Even in winter, the sun emits harmful UVA and UVB rays that damage skin.

UVA rays penetrate through clouds, causing premature aging and wrinkles.

UVB rays can lead to sunburns, dark spots, and skin irritation, even in cold weather.

Snow, frost, and reflective surfaces amplify UV exposure, increasing risk.

Regular sunscreen use helps prevent skin cancer, pigmentation, and uneven tone.

Don’t skip sunscreen this winter—your skin needs care in every season!
