If you're guilty of packing away your SPF as soon as winter hits, you're not alone. Most of us associate sunscreen with sun-drenched beach days and sweaty summers. But here's the catch, the sun doesn't take a holiday when the weather cools down. Even when it's chilly, cloudy, or foggy, UV rays still sneak through and can quietly damage your skin. That means sunscreen is a year-round essential, not just a summer fling.

So if you've ever wondered, can we use sunscreen in winter? The answer is a big, glowing yes. Let's talk about why that little tube of SPF deserves a permanent spot on your bathroom shelf, no matter the season.
