Why Your Skincare Isn't Working
(The Missing Piece You Need)
You’ve been trying to fix the wrong thing.
If you’re seeing this, it’s not by accident. You’ve been trying every new serum, cream, and treatment to fix things like dark spots and uneven tone, but they keep coming back. It’s frustrating, and you’re not crazy for feeling that way. But what if your real problem isn’t the product you’re using, but an invisible force you’re not protecting yourself from?
At Skin 2000, we want to make it simple. Sunscreen isn’t just for sunny beach days—it’s your skin’s most powerful tool, working every single day to keep it healthy and glowing.
The Real Reason You Need Sunscreen
The sun sends out different types of rays and light, and they all affect your skin:
- UV Rays: These are the most well-known culprits. They cause sunburn, but they also lead to fine lines, wrinkles, and those stubborn dark spots and patches we call hyperpigmentation. Sunscreen blocks these rays before they can cause lasting damage.3
- Blue Light: You’ve heard about blue light from your phone and computer, but did you know the sun is the biggest source? This light can cause even more dark spots, especially if you have a deeper skin tone.4 It also breaks down collagen, which keeps your skin looking plump and firm.5
- Infrared Rays: These heat rays from the sun can sneak deep into your skin, also breaking down collagen and speeding up the aging process.
When your skin is hit by these rays, it goes into defense mode, creating extra pigment (melanin) to protect itself. While this is your body’s natural response, for many, it leads to uneven skin tone and lasting dark spots. Sunscreen stops this process before it even starts.
