Why is Sunscreen Important During The Spring & Winter Months?
Surprisingly, the sun’s UV rays are harmful during this time of year because theozone layer is at its thinnest. So aging and skin-cancer causing UVA rays are actuallyat its highest(even though sunburn rays caused by UVB rays are at its lowest during this time).
Staying indoors may block most UVB rays, which cause sunburn, but allows more UVA rays through windows. UVA exposure has been linked to skin cancer, photoaging, and pigmentation issues. Therefore, being indoors near windows may not provide adequate protection against harmful UV rays.

Climbing Kilimanjaro: A Revelation
Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro allowed me to personally experience the immense power of nature and the blinding ultraviolet rays, with absolutely no shade. This profound experience made me realize the importance of reliable sun protection measures.
I've found that many sunscreens, including "natural" sunscreens, are often ineffective or even harmful because they contain chemicals or processed oils that can cause skin problems or worse.
Faced with the choice between the risk of sunburn and using risky sunscreen products, I realized the need for safer and more effective sunscreen options.

2. Warm it up: Rub the tallow cream between your palms to soften and melt it into a smooth, oil-like texture.
3. Apply to damp or dry hair: You can use it on damp or dry hair, depending on your needs: For conditioning: Apply it to damp hair after washing to lock in moisture. For styling or frizz control: Use it on dry hair to smooth frizz or flyaways.
4. Focus on ends: Tallow is rich and can be heavy, so it's best to focus on the ends of your hair where it's drier or more damaged, avoiding the scalp if you have oily hair.
