Beauty Tips: Sunscreen For Blackskin Is Needed!

We may not be hitting the tanning beds in record numbers, but the beautiful tones and hues of Black skin aren’t exempt from the damaging effects of UV rays and risks of skin cancer. A new report released Tuesday, warns that sun safety applies to everyone, even if you’re not fair-skinned.

“We know that the risk level for skin cancer decreases with more skin pigmentation,” the report mentioned. “But no one is immune. All races are still diagnosed and still affected by UV rays.”

The new report is calling skin cancer a “major public health problem” and says that too much exposure to indoor and outdoor UV light is the primary cause.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends wearing a hat, sunglasses and protective clothing and using sunscreen with an SPF of at least 15 to reduce the risk of skin cancer.
