Think you're safe from sun damage indoors? Think again. 🪟☀️

UVA rays — the ones responsible for premature aging and long-term skin damage — can pe*****te through windows.

That’s why Dr. Lamb recommends:
🧴 Wearing SPF every single. day.

Yes, even if you're working from home or driving in the car.

Your skin doesn’t take days off — your protection shouldn’t either. 💙

Red, itchy, tight, or constantly breaking out?
😖 Your skin barrier might be burned out from over-exfoliating, too many actives, or skipping moisturizers.

👩‍⚕️ Dr. Lamb’s signs your barrier needs a break:
🚨 Persistent dryness or tightness
🚨 Sudden sensitivity to usual products
🚨 Redness or flaking
🚨 Burning when applying skincare

🛠 Fix it: Gentle cleanser ✅ Ceramides ✅ SPF ✅ Say NO to
overdoing it.

Healing your barrier = protecting your glow. 💧

Blue light isn’t just from the sun ☀️ — it’s also from your screen.

🖥️ Phones, laptops, and tablets emit blue light that can contribute to skin aging and hyperpigmentation.

👩‍⚕️ Dr. Lamb recommends:
✔️ Use SPF with iron oxides (yes, it helps!)
✔️ Try a blue-light blocking screen or filter
✔️ Limit night-time screen exposure when possible

Tech glow ≠ skin glow. Be blue-light aware. 💙

Let’s talk about one of the most overlooked skincare disruptors: your pillowcase. 🛏️

💡 Dr. Lamb explains that pillowcases can trap:

🔹 Oils
🔹 Bacteria
🔹 Hair products
🔹 Dead skin cells

This can lead to clogged pores and acne flare-ups,
especially if you’re acne-prone.

✨ Tips from Dr. Lamb:
🌀 Change pillowcases every 2–3 days
🥰 Consider silk or satin for less friction
🧼 Wash with fragrance-free detergent

Sometimes it’s not your skincare — it’s your fabric care.
