In today’s digital age, screens are an essential part of our lives. We spend more time looking at our smartphones, laptops, and other devices than we do sleeping. This constant exposure to screens has introduced a new concern for our skin: blue light.
Understanding Blue Light Exposure
Blue light is a high-energy ray emitted not only by the sun but also by digital screens, LED, and fluorescent lighting. While blue light can boost alertness during the day, excessive exposure, especially at night, can have detrimental effects on your skin and overall health.
The Adverse Effects of Blue Light
Prolonged exposure to blue light can cause:
- Skin damage
- Eyestrain
- Fatigue and sleeplessness
When it comes to your skin, blue light exposure can:
- Damage the skin’s natural barrier
- Accelerate signs of aging
- Cause darkening and pigmentation
- Reduce skin elasticity and cause dryness
