Episode Title: Sunscreen Isn’t the Problem—It’s the Protection

Hosted by: Katarina Forster, Master Aesthetician & Founder of Your Honest Glow
Episode Type: Solo | Skincare Education | Clean Beauty

✨ In This Episode:

In today’s solo deep dive, I’m busting myths and sharing the truth about sunscreen. We’re covering:

  • What SPF really means (and what it protects you from)
  • UVA vs. UVB vs. blue light — and why tinted SPF matters
  • Vitamin D vs. sun protection — the truth you need to hear
  • Why your makeup isn’t giving you full SPF coverage
  • The real reason the sun doesn’t “clear” your acne
  • How much sunscreen to use, how to reapply, and how to layer with makeup
  • Clean vs. “toxic” sunscreen ingredients — what to avoid and what’s safe
  • The stat that changed everything: 88% of aging is caused by the sun

If you’re overwhelmed by SPF options, confused about reapplying, or trying to go clean without compromising your glow—this episode is for you.
