Top Myths Busted About Sunscreen: 


MYTH#1 Cloudy Days and Sunscreen Misconceptions

Fact: It's time to clear up a common misconception: believing that you don't need sunscreen on cloudy days. Many people assume that when the sky is covered in clouds, they are protected from the sun's harmful rays. However, the truth is that clouds do not provide an effective shield against ultraviolet (UV) rays. Applying SPF 50 or SPF 30 sunscreen on cloudy days is crucial for several reasons. First, UV rays can still pass through the cloud cover, causing harm to your skin. Second, UV rays are present year-round, regardless of the weather or season. Even on a cloudy day, UV radiation can have damaging effects on your skin if left unprotected. Keep your skin protected and healthy by incorporating SPF 50 or SPF 30 sunscreen into your skincare regimen, rain or shine.


MYTH 2#: "Sunscreen is only for fair-skinned individuals."

Fact: Sunscreen is necessary for individuals of all skin tones. While fair-skinned individuals may have a higher risk of sunburn, people with darker skin tones are still susceptible to sun damage and an increased risk of skin cancer. Dr. Batra's sunscreens provide broad-spectrum protection suitable for all skin types.


MYTH3#: "Once I apply sunscreen, I'm protected all day."

Fact: Sunscreen protection diminishes over time, especially with exposure to water, sweat, or friction. It's important to reapply sunscreen every two hours or immediately after swimming or excessive sweating to ensure continuous protection. Dr. Batra's sunscreens offer water-resistant properties for added durability.


MYTH4#: "Sunscreen prevents vitamin D production."

Fact: While sunscreen reduces the production of vitamin D in the skin, it does not completely block its synthesis. Most people can get adequate vitamin D through brief sun exposure on uncovered skin, such as the arms and legs, without risking sunburn. Alternatively, vitamin D can also be obtained through dietary sources and supplements.
