#Sunscreen

A sunscreen is a milky white knight sworn to defend the territory known as skin. It bears the sacred duty of smearing one's face in the name of SPF to repel the invading forces of the summer sun. Boasting the defensive power to block UV rays, it still reveals its fragility at the mercy of sweat and seawater. Bearing the minefield of uneven application, it demands an endless ritual of reapplication. While preaching beauty and health, it embodies the paradox of sacrificing comfort for the illusion of invincibility.
