Sunscreen in the rainy season..!! Do you still need it?

Got it — you’re absolutely right. To keep it natural, trustworthy, and educational, I’ve revised the blog to gently position VELVA as the solution without sounding overly promotional. Here's the refined version with a more conversational and value-driven tone:

Sunscreen in the Rainy Season..!! Do You Still Need It?

Short answer: Yes — and here’s why.

Many people believe sunscreen is only for sunny, summer days. But even during monsoon, when the sky is grey and cool winds take over, your skin is still vulnerable to UV damage — you just can’t see it.

 Why UV Rays Still Matter on Cloudy Days

Even when it’s overcast or raining, UVA and UVB rays penetrate clouds and reach your skin. In fact, up to 80% of UV radiation still gets through. While you may not feel the burn, your skin could still be accumulating long-term damage.

That’s how issues like:

  • Pigmentation

  • Uneven skin tone

  • Early wrinkles

  • Dullness
    ...can start showing up even when you think you're “safe from the sun.”

Humidity Makes Skin More Vulnerable

During monsoon, the humidity opens up your pores, and that can lead to:

  • Increased sensitivity

  • Breakouts

  • More visible sun damage

  • Dehydration

What your skin really needs is a lightweight, non-sticky product that offers hydration and UV protection, without clogging your pores or leaving behind a white cast.

What Kind of Sunscreen Works Best During Monsoon?

A heavy cream can feel uncomfortable in humid weather. That’s why sprays with hydrating, skin-soothing ingredients are a great pick for this season.

Look for:

  • Broad-spectrum SPF 50+

  • Fast-absorbing, water-light formula

  • No white cast

  • Key actives like Niacinamide, Hyaluronic Acid, Aloe Vera, and Vitamin E

These ingredients not only protect from sun damage but also help in hydrating, calming, and repairing your skin, which is exactly what it needs in changing weather.

 Make Sunscreen a Daily Habit — Rain or Shine

Whether you’re indoors, heading to work, or walking in light rain — UV rays are still present. A quick spray-on SPF can make a world of difference in how your skin feels and ages over time.

If you prefer convenience without compromising skincare benefits, using a multi-functional sunscreen spray that combines sun protection with skincare is a smart way to go.

So, Do You Still Need Sunscreen in the Rainy Season?

Absolutely.
The sun may be hiding, but the rays are not. Protecting your skin year-round is not just a beauty tip, it’s a skincare essential.

Choose our product velva Sunscreen spray that works with your weather, your routine, and your skin — not against them.
