Timeless Skin
What type of SPF did Ancient Egyptians use? Archeologists say that Egyptians used rice bran and jasmine to keep their skin fair during olden times. According to papers published on JAMA Dermatology, researchers have only recently learned that rice bran absorbs UV light and jasmine helps repair DNA. Skincare has since come a long way since the times of Ancient Egypt, but some wisdom is timeless: Wear sunscreen.
