Kareena Kapoor Khan, like many of us, has received bad, unsolicited advice in the past. See? No one’s immune to stuff like that; not even celebrities. But the kind of advice she received….had the potential to hurt her. I’m not even exaggerating.
But Kapoor did her research instead of blindly following someone else’s advice. You’ve got to see what it was.
Kareena Was Asked Not To Do This
Kareena was asked not to apply sunscreen unless step outdoors during the day. Yup. In this day and age! That kind of advice will hurt you. Literally. There are 2 reasons why:
Your Windows Aren’t Magical
Remember that most of our windows aren’t UV-proof; meaning that the rays of the sun can pass through them; even on dark, cloudy days. While UVB rays affect the more superficial layers of your skin via sunburn, UVA rays go beyond and damage your cells silently; resulting in spots, wrinkles, lines, and even cancer. These signs don’t show up instantly.
Remember that UVA rays are longer in wavelength; that’s why the stress is on them.
You might not experience sunburn and tanning at home, but the rest can happen without you knowing it’s happening until later. The sun doesn’t believe in offs, and your broad-spectrum sunscreen shouldn’t either.
The POPxo H2O Booster Sunscreen Gel is equipped with an SPF of 30 to protect you from sun-induced damage. It even contains Hyaluronic Acid and Kakadu Plum to hydrate and brighten your skin while sun-protecting it. For those of you with dullness and dryness, look no further.
Your Laptop & Phone Are Common Culprits
Our phones, laptops, and other devices emit ‘blue’ light. While this light cannot superficially ‘burn’ your skin, it can cause free-radical damage; leading to the breakdown of collagen and elastin in your skin. This results in the appearance of premature signs of ageing like sagging and wrinkles.
Another fact is that this light can increase the production of melanin in your skin; triggering pigmentation and spots on the skin or highlighting them even more.
For blue-light protection, the White Lotus Sunscreen Serum SPF 30 PA+++ by Pilgrim will do the job. Not only will it offer protection from UVA and UVB rays, but it will also defend you against blue light too. It contains Hyaluronic Acid, White Lotus, and Centella Asiatica to hydrate, brighten, and make the skin look youthful.
It’s safe to say that Kareena didn’t take that advice. Her forever-glowing skin is enough proof. I know I’m not either.
