Did you know that even indoors you need to slather your favorite sunblock in order to protect you from UV rays? Yes, I know staying indoors is the easiest way to veer away from the scorching summer heat outside.
Some of you may choose to stay at home or inside the office because of the airconditioned comfort but contrary to popular thinking, even the indoors do not provide enough protection from the damaging rays of the sun. In fact, studies show that staying by a window indoors all day long without sunscreen is equivalent to the sun damage experienced from taking a 15-minute walk out during lunchtime. Yikes!

Indoor Effects of UV Rays
- This study was conducted by American Cancer Society and the Skin Care Foundation.
- 62.8% of UVA rays can penetrate building and car windows.
- Fluorescent lighting can also produce small amounts of UV rays that can be damaging to skin over time.
- This means sitting next to the office window or inside your car does not protect you from skin damage caused by UVA rays. Even blinds or window tints cannot stop UVA rays completely.
- This is backed up by an article published in “Clinical Interventions in Aging” that featured men and women that worked indoors, yet had significantly more wrinkles and sagging skin on one side of the face that was habitually closer to a window. The best and most effective way to protect yourself is to sun-proof your skin, even while you’re staying indoors – whether you’re at school, in the office, or at home.
