Dermatologist Shereene Idriss says you don't need SPF every day. Check your weather app's UV index and wear sunscreen only when it's above 3 to protect your skin.

Whenever the UV index is above 3.

You don't have to wear sunscreen every day. I'm a 40 year old board certified dermatologist. That is the truth. But most of you will not get used to using it every day. If you don't use it every day. The way you find out is by opening your weather app, scrolling all the way down until you see the UV index. Anything below 3, you're safe. But anything above 3, you gotta wear the damn sunscreen so that your face and your future self can thank you for it.
