021 - Tanning - Remember That SPF! You'll Thank Us Later

Am I Pretty Now?

We are releasing this episode appropriately on a day of picnics! Today, Hailey is bringing us our third installment of our summer series all on tanning. Join us while we discuss what happens to your skin on a molecular level when you spend too much time in the sun and the difference between UV-A and UV-B rays. We will also be debunking tanning myths including base tans (stop it!) and whether melanined skin can sans sunscreen (spoiler: NO!). So, before you head out to any July 4th picnics, make sure you pack the sunscreen!
