My SPF of choice is just a wide brimmed hat. I like hats because they physically block the sun, and block it at 100%. Plus, I’m not putting extra ingredients on my skin this way. If you decide to use hats, just be aware that they can irritate the forehead area. Doing the Regimen up there should help you stay clear even if you use a hat.

Chemical exfoliants like retinoids (Retin-A, tazorac, etc.), alpha hydroxy acids (glycolic acid, lactic acid), and salicylic acid, can make your skin more sensitive to the sun. Be extra aware of sun protection if you are using any of these products.

It’s the first week of summer! Sun Week continues at Acne.org.

Come shopping with me today and we’ll take a look at SPF options down at my local Walgreens.

The video is super grainy. I’m not sure what’s up. I’ve been having huge problems with YouTube all week, so it’s a mystery. Anyway, I hope the information still comes through.

We only get our vitamin D from the sun and from dairy, so if you’re not getting a lot of sun and you don’t eat much fortified dairy, it’s a good idea to take a vitamin D3 supplement.
