There’s a common misconception that just because it’s winter, you don’t need to protect yourself from the sun. We’re here to set the record straight. UV rays are sneaky year-round, and ignoring them during colder months can wreak havoc on your skin.
Why Are UV Rays Still a Problem in Winter?
Even though the sun feels less intense in the winter, UV rays are just as potent. According to the Skin Cancer Foundation, snow reflects up to 80% of UV rays, meaning your skin gets a double dose—directly from the sun and reflected off the snow. Combine that with dry, cold air that strips your skin’s natural barrier, and you’ve got a recipe for dullness, dehydration, and premature aging.
So, Should You Wear Sunscreen In the Winter?
Absolutely, yes. Experts recommend applying a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher to your face and neck.
