That bottle of sunscreen sitting in your beach bag all summer? It might not be protecting you anymore!
Extreme summer heat breaks down SPF ingredients faster than normal—meaning last month’s sunscreen might just be moisturizer now. Here are 2 quick ways to tell if it’s time to toss it:
☀️ Texture: It looks separated, watery, or clumpy.
☀️ Smell: The scent has changed or it smells slightly sour.
If your sunscreen has seen a few too many hot car rides, treat your skin to a fresh upgrade - stop by our Mill Valley office and browse our skin care line!
