Listen Later

Is sunscreen actually bad for you? I’m diving into the science behind one of the most debated skincare topics. We’ll explore if sunscreen is negatively affecting your Vitamin D levels, the potential risks of certain ingredients (like oxybenzone), the differences between chemical and mineral sunscreens, and how to choose products that actually protect your skin against cancer without compromising your overall health. 

You’ll also learn about the surprising ways your diet and lifestyle impact your skin’s natural defenses, plus hear actionable tips to build a routine that supports your skin barrier and microbiome. Whether you’re a sunscreen skeptic or a devoted daily user, this episode will leave you feeling informed, empowered, and ready to make the best choices for your skin health.
