Skin tips for darker skin + why sunscreen isn’t just about avoiding cancer, with Dija Ayodele

My talk with Aesthetician Dija has already proved popular over on iTunes so I had to share the video! Dija is so well-known in the British beauty community, but what I love about her is that she never rests on her laurels; instead she’s all about constantly expanding and refining her skincare knowledge. Not only has Dija recently opened a new boutique skincare space, Westroom Aesthetics in Maida Vale, London, she’s also the founder of the Black Skin Directory, an online resource for men and women looking for a skincare professional or dermatologist experienced in caring for darker skin.

Over on wherever you listen to podcasts, you’ll find this has been split into 2 episodes but I’d love to do a part 3 with Dija so if you’ve got any skin health questions, let me know! Thanks so much for watching! Please do like, comment and of course hit subscribe. In the meantime, join the Beauty Me fam over on Instagram or Twitter.
