☀️Mineral vs Chemical Sunscreen

Not all sunscreens work the same way.

🧴Mineral sunscreen

Sits on top of the skin and reflects UV rays (zinc oxide, titanium dioxide).

Great for sensitive skin and kids.

🧪Chemical sunscreen

Absorbs into the skin and converts UV rays into heat (like avobenzone, octinoxate).

💡I usually lean toward mineral (especially for sensitive skin) but the best sunscreen is the one you’ll actually use consistently.

✅Broad spectrum
✅SPF 30+
✅Reapply every 2 hours

Small daily habits = big skin protection ☀️

Meet Kayla, an intern at Powell Pharmacy.

One of her favorite services we offer is the InBody scan 💪 a quick, non-invasive way to get a detailed picture of your body composition, including muscle mass, body fat percentage, and hydration levels. It helps take the guesswork out of your health journey and gives you real data to track progress over time.

Workout 💪 over walking 🚶‍♀️
Smoothie 🥤 over coffee ☕️

Presenting 🥁🥁🥁Dr. Vidhi Daga and Dr. David Joseph. Of all the things I get to do in my career, being asked to hood a student is truly one of the greatest honors. I had the incredible honor of hooding my intern, now Dr. Vidhi Daga at The Ohio State University College of Pharmacy Doctor of Pharmacy Hooding Ceremony. With three job offers, her future is bright! ☀️

Vidhi has been part of the Powell Pharmacy family for four years, and somewhere along the way became part of our family too. My daughter Marla came with me because my kids absolutely adore her; they call her “Bestie.”

We also had another exceptional student intern with us this year, David Joseph, who gave the commencement speech. After the ceremony he asked me for one more squat because you know what happens at Powell Pharmacy at the top of the hour doesn’t stay at Powell Pharmacy.

How about a selfie with professor/mentor/friend/role model/colleague ❤️
