Yes, morning sunlight can darken the skin. The sun emits ultraviolet (UV) radiation, which causes the skin to produce melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color. This process leads to tanning. While the UV rays are less intense in the morning compared to the afternoon, they can still cause tanning, especially with prolonged exposure.
It's important to note that even though morning sunlight may not be as strong as midday sun, it can still damage the skin. Therefore, it's essential to wear sunscreen, even in the morning, to protect your skin from UV rays.
In Summary
- Morning sunlight contains UV rays that can cause tanning.
- While morning sun is less intense, it can still damage the skin.
- It's crucial to wear sunscreen, even in the morning, for sun protection.
