- Ive talked about sunscreens so many times in my channel and for sure
most of us already know by now the importance of sun protection and how to properly use sunscreens and what kind to choose for our skin type and skin issues.
In this video I try to answer one very common question I've been getting a lot these days: Do I NEED to RE-APPLY sunscreen when INDOORS?
Let mw know your thoughts, questions, comments or suggestions below!
This video serves to educate and give information about anything related to skin and skincare and shall in no way take the place of a proper consultation with an expert, such as a board-certified dermatologist.

Reapplying sunscreen every two hours, not just when out but also indoor, is insane. Not only does it cost a lot, but is also very impractical. But this was suggested by number of dermatologists on RUclips. Thank you for informative video. I want to take care of my skin but don't want my life to revolve around it. I don't think that's healthy.
I agree with you :)
Which doctors recommend doing it every 2 hours indoors? That doesn't sound right haha. You sure you didn't misunderstand anything?
@@felixalexios She is right. The dermatologist told me to reapply every 2 hours indoors because of the computer screen.
She's right. I've been researching info about proper sunscreen use online, and EVERYONE says to use 3x more than she recommends and to reapply every 2-3hrs. I was honestly about to give up on sunscreen all together until I saw this video.@@felixalexios
What an honest and HELPFUL video! Now I can use this information to come up with a common sense skincare routine that works for me. Thank you!!!!
@@unityaboriginelove6595 but i thought normal sunscreen can't protect you from indoor light and computer screen. only skin tint sunscreen can
Thank you so much for this informative video! As a student it is impossible to justify reapplication every 2 hrs when you're inside most of the day. It is expensive, and a real inconvenience when you are trying to focus on studying. This puts my mind at ease. And, I learned something new about how sunscreen works!
You’re welcome! And thank you too for watching :)
Why would you even use sunscreen indoors?
This is a really helpful conclusion for a lot of people especially for those who are saving. Now my sunscreen will last longer than it usually does 😀😊 Thank you Dra for sharing such informative infos ❤️
Yay! You’re welcome :)
@@irenegaile does applying sunscreen causes skin cancer?
@@renubhandari6998 no, it doesn’t. 🙏🏻
Wow!!! GREAT video! Others say "apply sunscreen even when you are indoors" but they just don't go this detailed so I still had cuestiones about it. So thank you soooo much, this is trully helpful ❤
Thank you for your kind words :)
Such an educational video! Interesting study you cited and LOVED how you replicated the study on yourself. I'm a current medical school student, and I love seeing physicians giving back to the community through education with scientific evidence to back it up like this :)
Yay! I also had fun doing my own version of the study :)
Thank you so much for this video, and for doing all the research you did! This was something I was wondering about (and actually stressing over) since I started working from home. My kitchen gets a lot of sun and I had low level anxiety about going in there mid day when the sun is blasting through the glass door. I finally bought blackout curtains for that room and from the information I got in this video, I think between applying adequate sunscreen in the morning and keeping the curtains closed when I'm in there during the sunniest parts of the day, I should be fine.
Yay, im glad this video helped. Thank you for watching 🥰🤗
I really like how you are very transparent with the science behind!
Thank you! :)
Subscribed! This is very informative. Thanks, Dr. Gaile!
Yay! Thank you 🙏🏻🤗
Great video! I've been looking for the answer since so long and all the videos that I came across were just talks without any evidence or explanation but this video had everything that I was looking for. Thankyou so much ❤️
But just a little query.. what if we apply sunscreen in the morning, stay outdoors for about an hour and then indoors for the rest of the day?
If you got sweaty, dirty, wiped your face etc, I suggest reapplication. Better safe than sorry
Thank you so much for this video. I stay home most of the time due to the pandemic so it's good to know that I don't have to reapply them every 3 hours. I'm a student so in case I go back to school, reapply after 2 or 3 hours somehow annoys me a bit. I have to go to the bathroom where tons of girls gossiping and asking nonstop why I use sunscreen so much. I don't hate using sunscreen but I just don't like how the girls or boys at sometimes keep asking questions.
Also, does sitting next to the window reduce the effect of sunscreen? My classmates always pull the curtain so I am exposed to the sunlight for the whole morning.
When sitting next to a window, i recommend reapplication every 2-3 hours :)
Same situation

@@abrarashraf5940 it sucks. Luckily, things are different in collage. No one question why I reapply sunscreen.
Does reapplying sunscreen cause you break outs?
Am I late Doc Gaile? 😭 Thanks a bunch for another insightful and interesting discussion Dra! 🥰🙏
I just posted this today 🙏🏻💕 thank you too!
wow, I will listen to every single thing you say if I can look like this when I'm older
Thank you Dr.Gaile. I reapply my sunscreen even at home at 1:00 pm for I believe sunscreens are also classified as drugs and have half life.
Yes, that's ok too! whatever works for you :)
Thank your for this video evidence-based, I spend most of the day indoors so I was concerned about it, this is really helpful.
Im glad you found this helpful! Thanks too! :)
Thank you so so much dra. for another informative and entertaining content!
Im happy you found it informative and entertaining! :)
I only apply sunscreen for my morning commute.
6:30am. Full faced helmet. Double visor.
I dont reapply throughout the day since wala ako sa window side sa office. It breaks me out kpag i wear spf for extended hours. Works for me.
nope, no need
This is actually quite helpful. As a work from home hermit myself i just cant justify reapplying every couple of hours when I barely go outside during daytime
Thank you! yes I can relate, Im barely exposed to the sun too so I usually dont reapply.
Hi, Doc! I've been binge-watching your content and I really find it helpful. More power, Doc! Hopefully, I could visit your clinic. I badly want to have a consultation with you.
Of course! I will wait for you in one of my clinics :)
Thank you for your amazing video! I appreciate how you got to the point, and showed data.
You’re welcome! :) thank you for watching!
Thank you so much Doc! This is so informative, especially to us students who need more of a budget.
You're welcome! :)
Thank you. Very helpful and just what I was looking for.
Glad to help! :)
Straightforward and insightful! Thanks for sharing! :D
Yay, thank you too! :)
Hi Doc. Please make a video about skin care for night shift workers.. I wear sunscreen when facing my computer screen at night so I dont know how to insert a retinoid in my routine because if I apply a retinoid in the morning, baka madegrade po kasi ng sunlight.. Thanks in advance Doc!
Yes! Good idea :) thanks for the suggestion!
i didnt know UV rays penetrated windows. I’ve been sitting in front of the window by my computer for months now. The blinds are closed but still, I had no idea. I hope I can repair the damage it caused to my face :(
Windows only block UVB but not UVA. Ok lng yan, you can start sun protection now, may products naman that can - to a certain extent- repair and reverse the damage UV rays have caused 🙏🏻
Thank you doctora for another informational video!💗
You’re welcome and thank you too! 🙏🏻💖
So I'm a college student
I get exposed to sun 10 minutes in the morning, 10 minutes at lunch time and 10 minutes in the evening. Lol 😅
So I'm kind of confused. I don't even get exposed to sun 1 hour a day. In this case should I reapply??
I don't go near the windows or anything. Only these random minutes of exposure on random times of the day.
Please help

Yehey!!! Salamat 🤗💗
Yey doc! Thanks for this po napaka informative 🥰
You’re welcome! Thank you din! ☺️☺️☺️
Doc, do we have to wash our face upon reapplication of sunscreen? Or just overlap it lang? And is it okay to wash your face more than 2x a day if need be to reapply sunscreen as frequent?
In my opinion, ok lng to wash the face more than 2x a day basta using gentle cleanser especially in instances wherein pinag pawisan ka talaga or nadumihan ung face mo. Otherwise u can use a blotting paper or facial tissue to wipe your face off excess oil and dirt before reapplying sunscreen. Mas madali kc para sakin, ako i just re-apply using a compact powder with spf.
@@irenegaile thank you so much for this informative response, doc!
subscribed ... What a great video , love from pakistan

Hi doc! Binge watching all your videos for 3 days na! 😂😂 Malapit ko na maubos vids nyo dito. Hahaha. Keep it up!
Topic Suggestion: Hormonal Acne
Hhaha yehey!!! Salamat sa support! :) actually most forms of acne naman hormonal- except ung mga steroid acne, acne mechanica. Im thinking of making one about female adult acne - those that occur in women over 30 - but im still working on it hehe 🥰
@@irenegaile wow! Nice topic Doc! Aabangan ko yan since im turning 30 na next yr 😂😭😭😭 hahaha ang weird nga kasi nung teenager ako, wala talaga ako problema sa acne, as in, kinis.. pero kung kelan ng adult, saka din nglabasan 😭😭
Soooo.. looking forward dyan Doc! More powers! ❤️❤️❤️
thank you po doc gail, learned a lot from this video 🙂
Yay! Thanks too!
Yes, please make video about thr study outdoors :)
I want to! :) thanks for the encouragement!
Being next to windows actually is close to being outside. If I do not reapply sunscreen every 1.5-2 hours, then I can visibly see the new pigmentation marks appearing per day !!! ofc I use vitamin c in the morning & retinols in the night & that makes your skin more sensitive !! I feel that this video is greatly misinformative !! Completely disregarding the use of active & wheather or not there are windows nearby.
Before reapplying a sunscreen do I have to wash off the previous layer or apply on top of it ?
I recommend washing your face if you are outdoors, sweat a lot or if you are exposed do dust, dirt etc before re-applying sunscreen :)
Hi doc sana po ma blog mo about pigmentation/ malasma . Anu dapat gamot po
Meron akong video about pigmentation and melasma, however if you want proper treatment I recommend a formal consultation para ma asses ka ng mabuti at mabigyan mg tamang treatment.
Thank you Dr. Gaile, this is really informative.
But because of the mandatory wearing of mask, it looks like it decreases the sunscreen faster than without it. how about the cushion that provides Spf 15 only, is it sufficient as an alternative for the day? Thank you 😘
I agree! As evidenced by the part of my face in contact with the mask. And yes compact cushions with spf 15 can be used to re-touch or re-apply sun protection. I use a compact powder with spf 20. :)
@@irenegaile on a related note, did you apply a powder on top of your sunscreen on the day you tested the sunscreen indoors (in this vid)? It was just my intuition that applying powder on top of my sunscreen helps the sunscreen set better and not transfer to the mask. I may, however, be wrong if what you’ve shown here is already with powder.
@@bananapotatonaaa none, just pure sunscreen :)
@@irenegaile thank you! Would be interesting to see if results may change if powder is applied over sunscreen under a mask. Sayang I don’t have a camera like that. Thank you po Doc!
Is this different if I am using a chemical sunscreen? I assumed chemical sunscreen stopped working after a period of time?
Same for all types of sunscreens :)
Hi doc ❤️ Im your avid fan with your videos and contents. I am also want to achieve a better and healthy skin. I always follow your contents and it really helps me alot. I just want to ask if the tinted sunscreen is still the same with normal sunscreen. Thank you in advance ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for the support!
Not all sunscreens are tinted, tinted sunscreens contain iron oxides that give added protection from visible light :) I recommend tinted sunscreens to those with darker skin types and those with existing pigmentation.
Should you wash your face before reapplying sunscreen?
I normally dont anymore but if you got sweaty and dirty, yes i recommend washing
Hello Doc. New subscriber here. Can you also make a video about when and how to apply sunscreen for call center agent or for those people who works night shift. Thank you!
Good idea :) skin care routine na cguro for nightshift :)
This borders on the neurotic.
Thank you so much for this video doc 😇😇😇
Youre welcome! Sana nalatulong 🥰🙏🏻
Thank u maam 🤗🌿 really you skin is good maam
Oh, thank you, that’s very nice of you!
Hi doc I've been watching your videos simula ng nakita ko collab niyo ni sir jan angelo hope you'll make vids po sa cleansers and moisturizers na locally available and affordable products na best and compatible with retinol
It’s hard to make videos that give recommendations kc iba’t iba ung skin natin e there are so many things to consider and the only way to really know what is hiyang for you is to try products. Important lng na tama ung ingredients na pipiliin mo thats why i focus my videos more pn educating consumers how to properly choose ingredients. But when it comes to specific recos, i suggest a consultation
@@irenegaile thanks po doc. Ask ko lang po if okay ang celeteque hydration gamitin kong facial wash paggagamit ako ng vitc/retinol yung ingredients po kasi ng celeteque ay may lactic acid okay lang po ba na ipair sila doc?
Hello, Beautiful 🌻 i just found your chanel and found you so informative that i subscribe immediately 😂
I used and re-apply sunscreen whenever i go out.
I'm currently using a face lotion that contains alpha arbutin. Mostly i stay inside all day long. My window is closed and i used thik curtains. I don't even seat near window. Do i still need to wear sunscreen? Or i should apply sunscreen once in the morning and skip re-applying?
Thank you so much Dr!!!👍
Youre welcome ☺️
Hi Doc ☺️☺️
Hi meljean!! 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you po doc. This is very informative po. atleast nabawasan po ung kaba pag nakakalimutan mag reapply ng sunscreen midday if nasa bahay lang naman po. 🤣
Yes! Madalas na tanong kc ito, so naisipan kong gayahin ung ginawa sa study :) at least ngayon alam na natin.
Galing Naman nito!!! 😍
Thank you 🥰🤗
Thank-you so much!
Youre very welcome 🙏🏻
Hi Doc. Good day. Do you have to wash your face prior to reapplying sunscreen?
Thanks
depends on the situation, i would say if you were exposed to the outside environment, sweat a lot etc it would be best to wash your face prior to sunscreen reapplication, otherwise its ok to put a new layer.
Thankyou dok🥰 very Informative
You;re welcome and thanks din!
Sana may app na ganyan. Yung makikita yung sunscreen sa face via camera lang hehe
Dra. what can you advice about me who is so PICKY AND HESITANT to explore skin care products po? I am really frightened for the purging kasi or any reactions, naka-ilang readings na ako sa ingredients but then in the end, I won't try it pa rin, that's why until now I only have my go-to soap for the face only, and a cleanser (starts with letter E, ends with letter L), THEY ARE BOTH PINOY BRANDS ACTUALLY. I'm planning to start the sunscreen before it's too late and I don't really know what to buy. I think I really need to improve my routine na.
I suggest you seek the help of a dermatologist so that your skin can be assessed and you can make a guided decision on which products and ingredients to buy.
If I'm in indoor all day is it necessary to apply sunscreen
Indooor but with sunlight getting inside- yea
Doc may tanong lang po ako bakit po nagkakaroon ng pimples sa chest ano po reason? Thank you po.
Face, chest, back maraming oil glands kung saan magkakaroon ng acne
unrelated but what age should i start using retinol? my mom has a 0.1% one!! i am 16 with oily-normal combination skin po thank you!!
Retinol is an anti-aging ingredient, which I recommend to individuals aged 25 and over :)
Hi doc i have a question again.What is an ampoule? And how frequent should i use it? Morning or night?
From what I know, ampoules refer to products that contain higher concentration of a particular ingredient. Some would say that it is a more potent serum, others think it is interchangeable with serum. You use it depending on the ingredients and your skin needs and issues.
Dra. I work at night so I always sleep in the morning but my room is dark as in like a night dark do I still need to wear sunscreen?
No need. Especially if blackout curtains ka.
Thank you very much po!
Can i apply sunscreen after putting roae water gel ?
Yes :)
Doc to wash or not to wash your face in the morning😊
Hi doc review retinols from South Korean brands thanks.
Hi po doc.
Sana po gumawa po kayo ng vid about sa pag treat ng allergy cause of products po doc
I am suffering po kasi right now and sa mga vid nyo lang po may maayos akong maiindindihan.
Thankyou po
Godbless😊
I will see how I can make content about allergies. But the best way to treat your allergies is via a proper consultation with a dermatologist because it’s very personalized :) anything can be an allergen to anyone, meron lng iba na mas nakaka cause more than others :)
And thank you sa support and for your kind words 🙏🏻🙏🏻🥰

Hi can you tell me about the potential risk of chemical sunscreens and ingredients like oxybenzone, homosalate, avobenzone and such ingredients...are they harmful for skin?
Do we need to apply sunscreen at 6 am in the morning?
Uv index around this time is usually low, if you wont be exposed to the sun for a very long time, you can probably get away with not putting on sunscreen, but if you will be outdoors for an extended period of time, it would be better if you apply sunscreenx
Really helpful! :)
Yay! thank you! :)
What if we wash our face in the afternoon even though being indoors,is it recommended to reapply after washing?
Late in the afternoon no need na
Doc make a video po about sa pag rebuild ng skin barrier.❤️
Onga lagi ko nakaklimutan! Thanks for the reminder 🙏🏻

Hello, Dr.! New subcriber here!
Curious question lang po. Skin type ko po kasi is oily. Do I have to wash my face before re-applying sunscreen? Thank you po!!
It depends e. Pag pinagpawisan ka at nadumihan, yes. Pero if hindi naman pwedeng compact powder with spf :)
Iam currently doing laser treatment for skin.So my doctor told me that it's not required to reapply sunscreen when indoors.Iam confused because,In online sites,videos many people say different things regarding this.
So what is your opinion for this?
Should I follow my doctor's routine or should I reapply sunscreen!
In my opinion, if you are indoors in an air-conditioned room or you did not sweat there is no need to re-apply. There was a study done in thailand that show sunscreens lasting up to 6-8 hours when indoors without application.
But ultimately, its up to you. Theres no harm in reapplying.
@@irenegaile
Which sunscreen did you use Dra? Chemical or physical? Thanks!
Most of my sunscreens contain a mix of both physical and chemical sunscreens and iron oxides (tint) :) And I have A LOT of different sunscreens.
Hi doc. Magtatanong lang po ako kasi, I used the advance rejuvenating set ng hello glow dahil nagwoworse na yung mga pimples and black heads ko and it was my first time encountering it. Okay naman po sya no harsh feeling sa skin but then after a week of using it mas lalo po nagworse yung pimples ko para syang nagiging acne na then marami akong nararamdaman na bumps na parang magiging tagihawat na, naging good side nya lang nawala yung blackheads ko. Akala ko kasi purging stage parin kaso po nababahala na po ako kasi walang nagbago after 2 months ko syang gamitin and still continue using it. Ano po kaya marerecommend nyong gawin ko. Sana po matulungan nyo ko. By the way po my skin type is oily skin po.
I dont recommend rejuv sets in the treatment of moderate to severe acne. You will need to undergo proper consultation and assessment and will most likely need prescription medication :)
Topic recommendations: Sebaceous Hyperplasia (possible treatments, either by procedure or topical products might help) and hypochlorous acid as substitute to alcohol for people who havecontact dermatitis or even aggravate eczema due to frequent alcohol use. Hope you can share your thoughts about those topics Doc😊
Im not too familiar with specific product additives like hypochlorous acid, hehe. But i could talk about skin tumors like seb gland hyperplasia :) thank you for the suggestion
Do we need to apply sunscreen when indoors? I mean i never go out at day time in sunlight so i wana ask if i apply sunscreen bcz i spend most of my time sitting in my room
no sun exposure at all, then no, you dont need sunscreen IMO. visible light exposure on dark-skinned --- tinted mositurizers are ok
Do we need to apply sunscreen when we are at home..since we all are working from home nowadays?
I answered this question in the video :)
@@irenegaile thank you so much ❤️
Hi doc! Good day po, do you have your own products po ba or nagsusuggest po kayo products from the market?
I don't make my own products, I have some in my clinic but all the medications I prescribe can be bought outside.
Hello po Doc! Ask ko lang po kung may tips po kayo para po sa bodycare routine po. Yung skin ko po kasi medyo dry po at tan po sya at pati rin po dark spots. Ask ko lang kung anong routine po yung sa tingin nyo pong effective sa katawan para po maglighten po at smoothen po.
It’s good na concerned ka dn sa skin on your body. Marami kc - including myself- minsan nakaklimutan yan. Same as how youbcare for your face - use gentle cleansers, moisturize after bathing, you may exfoliate occasionally and use sun protection (sunscreen and protective clothing). Pag d ka naman nag papaaraw mag lilighten ung skin color mo but u may opt to add lightening lotions in addition to sun protection :)
Hello Doctor!! I get the importance of wearing sunscreen on your face indoors, is it necessary to apply sunscreen on the exposed parts of your body if you’re staying indoors all day? And if so, is it necessary to reapply?
If there is no sun, then you dont have to apply sunscreen
Hi doc- What if I am working night shift facing computer the whole 8hrs. Should I still apply sunscreen since computer releases Uv rays too?
Computer screens do not emit UV radiation, only visible light, i would suggest using a tinted moisturizer or glasses that protect against visible light if you want to shield your skin and your eyes from it.
So I don't need too?
doc ok lang po ba gumamit ng skincare products na may mineral oil? specifically yung 3w clinic sunscreen po. Chineck ko kasi yung ingredients list and may mineral oil po sya. Totoo bang masama and nakaka cause ng acne ang mineral oil?

ok lng for me. :)

Did you watch the video? It was very clear when you should apply.
Hello doc, I shaved my head. I want to ask if I should also put sunscreen on my head. If yes, is it alright to place sunscreen (for body)? Thank you.
Yes and yes. If you dont want to out sunscreen, wearing a hat is another option :)
Mam,i have to cook daily..i dont want to burn my skin in gas stove thats why i recently buy a induction stove..is it necessary to apply sunscreen during cooking in induction cooker???
For me no, but it might help to cool the skin from time to time if you cook for a long time and to not stay to close to the cooker

Yay :)
Doc i'm your new subsriber. 😚 I have a question is it okay to apply ice twice a day? Day and before you sleep?
It's not something that I recommend as part of a normal daily routine. I advice my patients to ice after a resurfacing procedure or any other procedure that would benefit from icing to minimize inflammation. May I know what you are doing it for? :)
@@irenegaile I have post inflammatory erythema something reddish dark spots, and for closing pores and para hindi po sobra mag produced ng sebum. I am sentitive and acne prone, I came from rejuv, I ended na using rejuv also. They said those red dark spots are caused by rejuv doc
How much of a sunscreen you need to apply for 3-5 times a day application?
Hi doc
I have three breaks at work. Two 15 min and one at 30 mins. I slather 0n a lot of sunscreen in the morning and give it plenty of time until it dries but when I re apply at work I have to quickly put my mask on over the spf. I'm trying to wear two masks. Incase dome rubs off. Am I still protected enough??
It depends if you sweat in between, if your masks rub off on the skin and if you are mainly indoors or outdoors. There is no harm in reapplying in between just to be sure. It;s very personalized. I, for instance, apply once at the start of my work (11am) and I dont reapply anymore, I get off from work at 6/7pm.
But reapplying of sunscreen throughout the day it cause pimples. Please help me to get the answer of this question..
Find out a face wash, moisturiser and a sunscreen according to your skin type and you’ll be just fine.
Hello Doc! How many times should i apply sunscreen in 1 day?
Depends on what you are doing during the day. For instance, if youre outdoors every 2 hrs, if you are sweating/swimming every hour. etc.
How about at night po?
No need, wala naman UV radiation sa gabi. If exposed ka sa light and screens though pwede naman tinted moisturizer :)
THANKYOU SO MUCHHH, personally i reapply my sunscreen only after washing my face (it's about 5 hours) (apply in the morning and reapply at 12 pm). btw how about uv filter ingredients that can sting the eyes?? all of chemical sunscreen i'v used just make me cry :(
Yes be careful not to let sunscreens get inside your eyes 🙏🏻
@@irenegaile then how to protect the eyes from uv light?
@@butearun Sunglasses, visors, hats or caps, or if you're wearing eyeglasses those with lenses that darken upon UV exposure.
@@irenegaile ah i see, thankyou Doc! but anyway which uv filter that iritate eyes and which one is safe for eyes?
@@butearun I honestly don’t know :( im sorry ill have to do more research on it.
I have oily skin, so should I wash my face before reapplying or you have any tricks?

Your doctor has seen your face so better trust him/her :)
Hi, Doc. Water-proof po ba ang ginamit mong sunscreen? Does it matter po ba if water-proof or not water-proof?
Walang water-proof sunscreen, only water-resistant. I think important cya if you are exposed/outdoors most of the time, engage in activities that make you sweat or when you are at the beach or are swimming. Most sunscreens naman now are water-resistant dn, best to check the label if you want to make sure.
