However, you should know that anyone with SKIN has the potential to age HORRIBLY. It depends on how you treat your body from the inside out.
Although Mocha skin has a natural SPF of 15, we still need to protect our skin against UVA/UVB rays which can lead to skin cancer—-YES Mocha folk CAN get skin cancer, just in case you were wondering. Check out some of these products to help you preserve your sexy as you age!

The sun does not discriminate, it does not see if you are a fairer tone or of a darker tone. Diseases like skin cancer, sunburn and other sun or heat related conditions can be caught by anyone exposed to too much sun. It becomes more important for darker skin toned people to wear sunscreen for protection against the sun as darker tones have a higher risk of developing Melanoma. So it is advised to be always protected against harmful UVA/UVB rays, no matter your skin tone . I’ve used EXTRASHADE sunscreen and love it’s lightweight, moisturizing and doesn’t leave white streaks on my skin! I LOVE IT!
Wake up author. WE ARE NOT BLACK. You should find and read my article on this site entitled I Don’t Know Any Black People. Black is the color of your car tires. Now compare that to your hand. We need to stop letting ourselves be defined by someone else and by a color that we are NOT. That is simply brainwashing.
