NEW Sunscreen Releases of 2024

If you guys didn’t already know i am absolutely obsessed with sunscreen.


As a child, I always wore sunscreen when I went outside to the beach, but now as a skincare enthusiast I LITERALLY wear sunscreen everyday.

Some people may think it’s weird for black people to wear sunscreen but honey, if you have dark spots or hyperpigmentation (no matter what your race or skin tone is) - you could benefit from wearing a little sunscreen.


My sunscreen obsession always has me looking for the latest and greatest formula so that’s why we’re both here today.
