Natural skincare is great — but did you know that some ingredients can actually harm your skin if used during the daytime?
Yes, a few common items from your kitchen or skincare shelf may react with sunlight and cause issues like tanning, pigmentation, or even burns!
Hello everyone! Welcome to Sasvibe.
Here are a few you should never apply in daylight:
🔸 Lemon Juice – While it’s known for brightening skin, lemon is highly acidic. In sunlight, it can cause photosensitivity, leading to redness, irritation, or dark patches.
🔸 Essential Oils (like orange or bergamot) – These can trigger phototoxic reactions when exposed to UV rays.
🔸 Turmeric Paste – It might leave your skin yellow and can react with sun exposure, sometimes leading to rashes.
🔸 Raw Milk or Yogurt Masks – Though soothing, dairy-based packs can attract dust and pollutants if worn outdoors.
🔸 Retinol or Vitamin C serums (if not followed by sunscreen) – These can oxidize and lead to skin damage in direct sunlight.
The Rule?
Enjoy these ingredients at night or indoors — and never forget sunscreen if you’re stepping out.
Your skin deserves love — just not the kind that backfires under the sun!
