Its legit but depends on how young you begin to use it and on your skin genetics.

At least as soon as you turn 17-18.

Bellow those ages your skin is still not damaged by the sun.

I have shit skin genetics due to my father, and I began applying sunscreen everyday since 2018. I used to apply less consistently than now, but I'm 23 and some people say I look 20 or even 19. Small actions over long periods of time are worth it, it may not seem now because you still have collagen, but its gonna make a big difference a few years ahead, especially in regards to nasolabial folds if you don't have a good upper maxilla like me.

Just apply a 50 spf sunscreen every 2 h everyday for the rest of your life. Theres no other way.

What about wearing a hat?

Oh oh oh... Due to stress, starvation, sun bathing like a retard my face skin is shit, and I'm 17. Most of the damage was done between 14-16.

No, the UV radiation can still suffer reflection in ordinary objects. If your eyes would be able to perceive UV radiations, with a hat on you would still see them, therefore they can still cause some damage even if the hat blocks a part of it.

Ah shit I'll think about it.
I might just use some basic sunscreen made of Zinc with zero other ingredients

those chemicals have been tested, I doubt it causes dysfunctions like infertility and such over long time intervals.

If so, I would have felt the effects of it. Its a 1000 times worse being alone for example than putting sunscreen.
