What if sun protection isn’t only about blocking the sun, but also about preparing your skin to interact with it better?
In this episode, I’m widening the conversation around summer skincare beyond sunscreen and sunblock. We’re talking about hydration as a foundational part of resilient, healthy skin, both on the surface and deep within the body.
I’ll walk you through why a hydrated skin barrier matters, how cellular hydration affects the way your skin responds to sun exposure, and why “just drink more water” is not the whole story. We’ll also talk about minerals, electrolytes, demulcent herbs, healthy fats, stress, and simple ways to support your skin as we move into sunnier months.
