Protect the skin you love!
We love our skin tone. Our melanin is magic, but it still needs protection. Here's why you need sunscreen, how you can avoid ashy residue, and what sunscreen actually works for deeper skin tones.
Sun’s out, your melanin glowing, and you think, "My skin doesn't burn. I'll look this good forever. So, I don't need sunscreen."
Hold up! Aht Aht!! Just because you your skin is darker and doesn’t burn easily that doesn’t mean you don’t need sunscreen.
Kill the myth: Melanin doesn’t make us immune to sun damage and melanoma. It's just harder to detect skin cancer and which often gets caught later for us. That’s not a flex, babe.
Why You Need SPF (Yes, You)
UV damage doesn’t care how rich your skin tone is. It shows up as:
- Uneven dark spots
- Premature aging
- Moles on hairless parts of your body
We have to check our skin for changes too. We are not exempt. Unfortunately most sunscreens leave us looking ashy, ghostly, and casket-ready.
Fortunately, we have more brands of sunscreen available that are for darker skin people, Black Girl Sunscreen is one of them.
What Makes Black Girl Sunscreen Different?
No white cast – Yay!!! It actually disappears into your skin leaving you with a gorgeous glow.

Whether we're at the beach, running errands, or just existing outside (inside too)—this SPF is made with us in mind.
Sunscreen isn’t about living in fear of skin cancer, it’s about caring for your skin and having a healthy glow.
