Hello, I was wondering how late in the evening do I need to be wearing sunscreen to protect against uva rays? I?ve read that they are present from dusk till dawn, so does that mean I need to apply sunscreen until after astronomical twilight ends? Thank you.

Yes you are right. In the evening also there are uv rays. So you need to wear sunscreen till 9 pm atleast. You can consult me at Lybrate for homoeopathic treatment and further guidance.
