The answer is a resounding YES, of course! Just because summer’s over and the sun isn’t as harsh as it used to be does not mean you should stop putting sun protection on your face and body. In fact, you should be using this time to rejuvenate your skin after extra exposure to harmful UV rays last season.

Still unconvinced? Dermatologist Dr. Lorna Frez shared with us some facts to make you realize the importance of applying sunscreen:

• The looming thick, dark clouds should not be an excuse to skip sunscreen application on your face and body, since 80% of UV rays can still penetrate rain clouds.

• Being indoors doesn’t prevent you from being exposed and getting sunburned. Even when you’re driving or in your office with UVB-protected windows, UVA rays, which cause skin aging and induce skin cancer, can still pierce through glass.

• The fairer you are, the more prone you are to sun damage and the higher your risk of developing skin cancer.

So never stop protecting your skin, even under less sunny weather conditions. If you’re worried about feeling sticky when the air is wet or humid, try Neutrogena’s Ultra Sheer Complete UV Waterlight Lotion (P460) and the Ultra Sheer Complete UV Moisture (P460). Both have SPF 50, Helioplex technology that provides long-lasting UVA/UVB protection, and has Dry Touch technology that leaves a non-oily and non-sticky texture. The only difference between the two variants is in the feel: UV Waterlight is ultra-lightweight, while UV Moisture has a slightly thicker texture.
