A member asked:
Is it really necessary to wear sunscreen 50+ indoors when applying glycolic acid 25% or can i skip the sunscreen step at home?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Glycolic acid: You can skip wearing sunscreen at home, but if you have a skylight, are going outdoors or have lots of windows you might want to be safe rather than sorry.

Do you need sunscreen indoors? I heard even if the windows are open, you can just stay a few feet away from them to avoid needing to put on sunblock. It seems silly to wear it indoors, is it needed?
