Previously, I
mentioned the importance of sunblock as part of my skincare routine (Achieving Clear and Healthy Skin),
emphasizing its role in defending against the sun. However, in this post, let's
delve deeper into why you must consider incorporating sunblock into your daily
life, especially if you reside in countries like Malaysia, where scorching
weather can take a toll on your skin (Nurturing Your Skin: Know Your Skin Type).
While we need the sun for vitamin D, the increasing frequency of hot weather due to climate change and the thinning ozone layer raises concerns. Temperatures soaring up to 45 degrees Celsius have become the norm. Regardless of the intensity of the heat, I firmly believe that sunblock is a necessity. It bewilders me how some individuals I know claim to remain unscathed by dark spots, pigmentation, wrinkles, and premature aging despite forgoing sunblock.
