Sunscreen pills are BULLSHIT. I'm getting madder and madder the longer I think about a post I saw on my feed a little earlier, promoting a supposed oral sunscreen pill. The person promoting the product explicitly said it replaces the need for a topical sunscreen. That is unbelievably irresponsible. The FDA has already called these supplements out. Some have been pulled from shelves. But they continue to exist and apparently to allow their brand partners to make dangerous claims. Basically these pills are antioxidant supplements and derive their claims from the idea that they can prevent cell damage resulting from UV-induced free radicals. And maybe they can mitigate *some* free radical damage caused by sun exposure or other environmental stressors, but to say they can actually replace topical sunscreen? Fuck no. It is not a sunscreen if it doesn't have a stated SPF value. It is not a sunscreen if it doesn't have UV filters. It is not a sunscreen if you don't put it on your skin! If you don't want to wear sunscreen, that's your choice. But if you do want to but dislike the added step to your routine, please don't get taken in by the idea that you can #eatyoursunscreen. If it were that easy, we'd all be doing it. Have you guys seen this crap?! #uvprotection #sunprotection #spf #sunscreenpills #skincare #bullshitmarketing

Me when I realize how long I've been loyal to the #tbeauty products I talked about in my article for @taiwaneseam_org. If you haven't, you can read it via the link in my bio! Gif downloaded from Reddit. But I wish this cat was mine 😭 #weirdcats #catlovers #catsofinstagram

Brightening, reparative post-sun #skincareroutine for the first day of summer vacation! . Inna Organic product provided by @innaorganicus. #ernolaszlo product provided by @ernolaszlonyc. #Holysnails product provided by my job @holysnails. #Apeach towel gifted by @dalba_global! . Cleanse (not pictured): Neogen rose cleansing water, Cosrx low pH powder cleanser in the inconvenient single use packs. . #Naruko La Creme Face Renewal Miracle Essence. This routine is focused on warding off any stray sunspots that might try to come out after a day in the sun, and this is the first of several brightening products that I rely on to do that. . Naruko La Creme Platinum Bright Essence Repairing Complex, the second brightener in the routine. . #Goodal Waterest Lasting Water Oil to replenish moisture. Especially important since I've been hitting the 0.14% tret more often lately. . Holy Snails Double Shark 10% niacinamide #brighteningserum, the star of the anti-spots lineup tonight. . #Cosrx Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence to smooth, soothe, and help repair any sun damage. . A chilled Inna Organic Myrrh Deep Moisturizing Facial Mask. I'll show it in more detail in my stories tonight! . Cosrx Advanced Snail 92 All In One Cream as eye cream . Erno Laszlo Firmarine Night Cream. First impressions will also be in my story. . And I think it's a good night to relax and light up my Nalda DMZ candle that I've been hoarding for weeks! This is pretty much the only fragrance I love enough to have in a candle. . How's summer treating your skin? . #kskincare #koreanskincare #koreanskincareroutine #abskincare #abcommunity #rasianbeauty #tbeauty #indiebeauty #skincarediary #skincareenthusiast #iloveskincare #kakaofriends #laszloicon
