Sunscreen & Sun Safety Explained: SPF Myths, Daily Use, and Skin Health (Part 2)
In this episode of the Facially Conscious Podcast, we continue our in-depth discussion on sun exposure and sunscreens, focusing on the questions and confusion many people still have around daily sun protection.
How do sunscreens actually work? What’s the difference between mineral and chemical sunscreen? How much protection do you really need for everyday life versus extended sun exposure? In this conversation, we break down sunscreen basics in a clear, practical way—without fear-based messaging or exaggerated claims.
This episode is designed for anyone seeking a better understanding of SPF, UV protection, and how sunscreen fits into a healthy, realistic skincare routine. We discuss common sunscreen myths, how to read sunscreen labels, and why sun protection recommendations can feel so overwhelming or contradictory.
Whether you’re skincare-curious, a licensed professional, or simply trying to make informed choices without the noise, this episode offers thoughtful guidance rooted in education, balance, and long-term skin health.
In this episode, we explore:
How sun exposure affects the skin over time
The difference between mineral and chemical sunscreens
What SPF numbers really mean
How to approach sunscreen use for daily life
Common misconceptions around sunscreen and sun safety
This is part of an ongoing conversation intended to help listeners build confidence in their skincare decisions—without extremes or pressure.
