Black Girl Sunscreen: The Importance Of Sunscreen For People Of Color, with Founder Shontay Lundy

Hello Beauty

Hi everyone. I hope you're keeping safe, healthy, and hanging in there. Sending love your way and my thoughts are with you.

-----

This week's Hello Beauty guest is Shontay Lundy. As a woman of the sun coming from Miami, she was inspired to create Black Girl Sunscreen. Black Girl Sunscreen was designed to start the conversation around sun safety and education. It is great for everyday use and is filled with natural ingredients.

We discuss why people of color should wear sunscreen. People of all colors can still get skin cancer even if they don't burn at times. Wearing sunscreen is a preventative measure. People of color are still susceptible to sun damage like hyperpigmentation, wrinkles, and cancer. Shontay talks about the reasons why people of color don't wear sunscreen and the myth around wearing SPF.

We learn about her entrepreneurial tips on how to start a business with little to no capital. The number one secret is one's work ethic and she also shares the exciting plans coming her way.
