Do I need to reapply sunscreen if I'm inside all day?
Yes, you should still consider reapplying sunscreen even if you are indoors. UV rays can penetrate windows, meaning you can still be exposed to harmful rays while inside. If you are near windows or in a room with lots of natural light, it's wise to reapply sunscreen regularly.
Key points:
- UV rays can come through windows and affect your skin.
- Artificial lighting can also emit some UV radiation.
- Long periods near windows increase your exposure risk.
- Skin can still be damaged without direct sunlight.
