How crucial is using sunscreen during the winter?

Sunscreen is one of the most important parts of anyone’s skincare routine. If anyone is asked why they use sunscreen in their skincare the answer is quite simple: ‘To protect ourselves from tanning.’ The truth is that it is not only tanning the sunscreen that is preventing it from happening. The issues that rises due to the sun's rays are numerous and the extent to which they can harm our skin and body both vary. 

UV rays or Ultraviolet rays are harmful rays that penetrate the skin and cause considerable damage. Though earlier they were mostly absorbed by the ozone layer before entering the Earth's atmosphere now pollution and deterioration in the ozone layer have increased the amount of UV rays that reach us. 

Issues that arise due to UV rays are irritation, sunburn, premature aging of the skin/ photoaging, skin cancer, & cataracts and to an extent, it can affect the immune system as well. Sunscreen tends to wear off after it gets absorbed and because we tend to wipe the sweat off our faces reapplication of sunscreen is necessary after every 2 hours. Since sunlight is there no matter what the weather is our skin needs sunscreen irrespective of the season. Whether it is summer or winter the skin needs to be protected to avoid facing any skin issues.
