spf in september still — yes really

Honestly forgot about this until my colleague (bless her) pointed out I had a proper tan line from sitting near the window at my desk. In September. So I've gone back to putting SPF on in the morning before I leave the house, which I'd basically stopped doing around August when it felt like summer was winding down. Turns out the UV index does not care about my assumptions. The other thing I've noticed — and I mean this might just be me — is that when it's warm and I'm drinking more water throughout the day my skin just looks less... tired? Not a revelation I know but I keep forgetting and then remembering again every summer like it's new information.
