Should I use SPF on my face every day?

Yes, you should wear SPF on your face every single day.

Even when it’s cloudy. Even in winter. Even indoors near windows.

Why Daily SPF is ESSENTIAL

Up to 80% of visible skin aging is caused by sun exposure, not just aging itself. UV radiation contributes to:

  • Wrinkles
  • Hyperpigmentation
  • Fine lines
  • Uneven skin tone
  • Loss of elasticity

Daily sunscreen protects against both UVB (burning) and UVA (aging) rays.

Do I need SPF if I’m inside?

Yes. UVA rays penetrate:

  • Windows
  • Clouds
  • Glass

That means daily exposure during commuting, sitting by windows, or driving still impacts your skin.

What SPF should I use on my face?

Dermatologists generally recommend:

  • Broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher
  • Lightweight, non-comedogenic formulas
  • Reapplication every 2 hours if outdoors

Bottom Line

Using SPF daily is the single most effective anti-aging and skin-protecting habit you can build. Of course we recommend using our Daily Mineral SPF but if we're being honest we're all for you using any SPF as long you protect yourself!

Think of sunscreen as skincare, not just beach care.
