Here in Chicago, most days are not sunny, even during the summer. Why that is, especially these last few years, I don’t know. But to maintain an even skin tone, I use sunscreen regardless of the UV level. Most days it’s not high, so I use coconut oil for sunscreen.

Here in Chicago, most days are not sunny, even during the summer. Why that is, especially these last few years, I don’t know. But to maintain an even skin tone, I use sunscreen regardless of the UV level. Most days it’s not high, so I use coconut oil for sunscreen.
Coconut oil is rated SPF 6 and it’s perfect for days when there’s not much sunshine and the UV levels are low. I can get a mottled, uneven look to my skin even on cloudy days.
But my skin doesn’t get burned from the sun. So it doesn’t make sense to use a sun product with a high rating, say, SPF 50.
Coconut oil is one more weapon in my sun protection arsenal. Coconut oil provides adequate protection for my skin on days with low UV levels.
