My personal skin care must-have is sunscreen!

The "personal skin care essential" I consider most important is sunscreen. While it's easy to think of sunscreen as simply a supplement to prevent tanning, it's actually the most powerful anti-aging tool, preventing skin aging and blemishes.

Since learning that photoaging accounts for over 80% of skin aging, I've been trying to make it a habit to apply sunscreen. While reapplying every two to three hours is most effective for maintaining skin texture and preventing pigmentation, it's often difficult to do, leaving me feeling overwhelmed.

In those cases, I use sunscreen sticks. These days, there are many moisturizing cream-like formulas that don't leave a white cast, making them less burdensome. I highly recommend making sunscreen a part of your daily routine.
