Basically reverse sunblock. Ouch! I wonder how light affects internal organs. Skin is meant to be a protective barrier.

- devilirium 2y agoI don't think it's particularly bad for them, especially in the short term. In my extended family it's common to use red light therapy, which penetrates into the tissues to help the fight against inflammations, infections. It's also used as a treatment for dry eyes, which I also have. I may be wrong though, maybe common sunlight is more harmful with a translucent skin? Idk, it's interesting though.
- Traubenfuchs 2y agoDepends on the spectrum! Our insides don‘t care about visible light but long term sunny-day level UV light can not be good for them. This dye seems to be limited to red, visible spectrum, but you‘d need to test that first.
