Can morning sun darken skin?

Published in Sun Safety 1 min read

Yes, morning sunlight can tan the skin, although it's less intense than midday sun. While the harmful UV rays are less in the morning compared to the afternoon, you can still get a tan. Even sunshine on a cloudy day can still expose your skin to UV rays.

Even though the morning sun might be less intense than midday sun, it's still important to protect your skin from sun damage. Wear sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher, wear protective clothing, and limit your time in the sun, especially during peak hours.
