Sunscreen, year-round
UV exposure is the largest controllable factor in skin ageing, and it doesn't stop in October — UVA passes through cloud and window glass. Daily SPF does more for skin appearance over time than any serum.
- Mineral sunscreens (zinc oxide, titanium dioxide) sit on the skin and work immediately. Usually the better choice for sensitive or reactive skin and for children.
- Chemical sunscreens absorb UV and tend to feel lighter, with less white cast.
- Broad spectrum means UVA and UVB protection — look for it explicitly, since SPF alone only describes UVB.
- Reapplication matters more than SPF number. SPF 50 applied once beats nothing, but SPF 30 reapplied every two hours beats both.
Sensitive and reactive skin
Dermatological ranges such as La Roche-Posay are formulated for compromised or reactive skin — typically fragrance-free, with shorter ingredient lists and tested for tolerance. If products routinely sting or flush your skin, fragrance is the most common culprit, and "unscented" isn't the same as "fragrance-free."
On "natural" and "clean"
Neither term is regulated, and neither guarantees gentleness — plenty of botanical extracts and essential oils are common irritants. Judge products by their ingredient list and how your skin responds, not by the marketing on the front of the bottle.

Patch test new products on a small area first, particularly with active ingredients such as retinoids or acids. Persistent skin problems, changing moles, or reactions that don't settle warrant seeing a doctor or dermatologist.
