We grew up as Sun-Worshippers, and still enjoy the light, today. But today’s sun and heat are on another level, a more harsh and dangerous level. If you’re not already doing so, you MUST protect yourself from the sun’s harsh rays, and reduce premature skin aging. And it’s not too late to start.
We’re talking skin protection on the Ageless Glamour Girls Podcast today, with our esteemed guest - Dr. Nkem Ugonabo, M.D., M.P.H., a board-certified dermatologist with advanced training in cosmetic dermatology and lasers. Dr. Ugonabo currently practices both medical and cosmetic dermatology at Unionderm in New York City. Is there a difference between sunblock and sunscreen? What about ingredients? And should we apply sunscreen every single time we step foot outside our homes? How does menopause figure into all of this? What are the signs of skin cancer? So many questions, and so many answers that will help you better protect your skin.
And thank you, Skin of Color Society for being there, and putting us in touch with Dr. Ugonabo!
