How to protect your skin from the heat in Ramadan?

We all know that sunscreen is a must-have when it comes to protecting our skin from sun damage, but did you know that heat can also have a negative impact on your skin, even if you're not directly exposed to the sun? That's right, and the experts at L'Oréal Paris want to make sure you're taking care of your skin even when you're at home - especially during Ramadan. Curious to know why? Keep reading to find out!

Why should I apply sunscreen at home?


Here's a fun fact that might surprise you - did you know that even if you're staying indoors, the harmful UV rays from the sun can still make their way into your home and wreak havoc on your skin?


It might sound crazy, but it's true! That's why it's super important to apply sunscreen even when you're at home to protect your skin from premature aging and potential skin damage. Trust us, you don't want to deal with pesky fine lines, wrinkles, dark spots, or even worse, the risk of skin cancer!


However, this is not the only reason why using sunscreen cream at home is necessary. In the holy month of Ramadan, many women spend a long time in the kitchen, without realizing what the heat of cooking can do to their skin, and that the heat of the oven tans and harms the skin as well.


While cooking, your skin is exposed to intense heat due to the heat from the oven and utensils, in addition to volatile oils and a lot of steam. All these factors cause skin irritation, dryness, and redness that leads to darkening of the skin and the appearance of pigmentation.


But does sunscreen protect against the heat of the oven? Sunscreen does not protect the skin from heat sources other than the sun directly, but through the insulating layer it creates on your skin. Sunscreen can also be used as a moisturizer, thus providing you with the protection you need while cooking and being in the kitchen.


Therefore, you must use a sunscreen for the face at home, especially if the windows of your house face the sun directly, as well as while you are in the kitchen to prepare food.


you may be wondering now how do I choose a suitable sunscreen for my skin? The answer is easy. Look for the ingredients!
