The Truth About Sunscreens: What You Really Need to Know

Sunscreen, minus the myths. Board-certified dermatologist Dr. Caroline Robinson explains UVA vs UVB (and why SPF is only part of the story), what “broad-spectrum” really means, how high you need to go with SPF, mineral vs chemical filters, tinted sunscreen protection, and photoprotection for darker skin tones.

You’ll also hear her personal sunscreen story, why SPF is a true health decision (not just a beauty step), and how the right protection can prevent premature aging, hyperpigmentation, and skin cancer—plus how to build a daily routine you’ll actually follow.

Topics:

• Broad-spectrum vs SPF: what the number measures

• Choosing sunscreen by skin type & tone (acne-prone, sensitive, darker skin tones)

• Mineral vs chemical sunscreens and how to avoid a white-cast

• Tinted iron-oxide formulas for visible-light support in hyperpigmentation

• Reapplication basics:

• Sun-smart extras: hats, shade, and UPF clothing

Your skin is worth protecting today, tomorrow, and always. Tune in now and start setting the tone for healthier skin!
