Did you know the light from your devices may also be damaging your skin?
Dermatologist, Dr. Mary Alice Sallman-Hickson from Kelsey-Seybold, said she can’t believe more people aren’t protecting their skin all year round, inside or outside.
“You look at your phone so you should be wearing sunscreen. And I usually recommend sunscreen with a tint in it. The iron oxide that’s usually in the tinted products or in makeup can really protect you from the blue light,” Hickson said.Hickson said blue light activates opsin, a part of the skin that produces pigment. Think about dark spots on the skin getting worse, like sunspots or dark undereye circles.
Even though an entire workweek in front of the computer is estimated to be enough time to damage the skin, the solution is simple. Dermatologist Dr. Sherry Ingraham from Advanced Dermatology said any sunscreen can protect your skin from premature aging caused by the sun or blue light.C E Ferulic from SkinCeuticals: Put it on in the morning under your sunscreen as part of your blue light protection arsenal.She also recommends blue-light blocking glasses.
