Roasting the Sun, you ask?
This is a hot issue! Gen-Z is doing everything right in their skincare routines—layering serums, binging tutorials and embracing anti-aging—but somehow, they still skip their protection from the ultraviolet light that can cause skin cancer, burn and ... premature aging!
Despite overall skincare awareness, 64% of Gen Zers often forget to apply sunscreen, and only 34% believe that skin cancer prevention is the primary reason to use it. In addition, 50% of Gen Z experience severe sunburn in the summer months.*
An e.l.f. Made original production, 'Sunhinged' shines a comedic spotlight on this skincare contradiction with the unignorable absurdity it deserves. It's part of an awareness campaign for e.l.f. SKIN's Suntouchable collection, designed to make daily sun protection feel effortless, and yes—laugh-out-loud funny.
'At e.l.f., we believe in meeting our community where they are—and, in this case - that's somewhere between a 10-step skincare routine and forgetting sunscreen altogether. I'm often asked my No. 1 beauty tip, and it's always SPF,' said Kory Marchisotto, Chief Marketing Officer at e.l.f. Beauty. '`Sunhinged' lets us spark an important skincare conversation through the universal power of comedy. 91% of people globally prefer brands to be funny and 90% of people are more likely to remember ads that are funny. e.l.f. is lovingly known to cut through the BS and connect with our community through humor. There's probably nothing more Gen-Z than self-care infused with self-aware humor.'
'Never before has there been a stand up special exclusively about SPF. Hard to believe right?!? Are you excited?! Well, you should be. Are you confused?! That would also make sense,' said comedian and 'Sunhinged' talent, Jon Rudintsky. 'Either way you gotta check out the special!'
In addition to the insights around SPF usage, 75% of Gen Zers say they want brands to 'make them laugh.'** With a priority of surprising and delighting the brand's community. e.l.f. often uses humor to connect and make a meaningful impact.
Suntouchable, e.l.f. SKIN's line of skin-loving SPFs, delivers serious protection with a playful twist. The collection includes lightweight, multi-benefit formulas packed with cruelty-free, e.l.f. clean ingredients—no white cast, no greasy feel, just protection that feels as good as it looks.
As part of a continued partnership of kindred spirits, e.l.f. and Tribeca Festival have together again to debut e.l.f.ing entertainment content. The 'Sunhinged' trailer made its Tribeca Festival premiere on June 6 as part of 450 total screenings through June 15.
The full premiere of e.l.f. SKIN's 'Sunhinged' will be Saturday, June 14 at 6 pm ET/3 pm PT on YouTube. Wear sunscreen, laugh responsibly and never underestimate the shade.
Check out the official trailer here.
'Sunhinged' tapped production partner Above Average, Emmy-winning New York based comedy production company founded by Lorne Michaels' Broadway Video.

Disney to Pay Comcast $438.7M for Full Hulu Ownership, Ending Valuation Dispute

The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS) is one of the best Dow stocks to invest in. The company has agreed to pay Comcast $438.7 million to buy out its remaining stake in the streaming service Hulu, ending a lengthy appraisal process. In 2023, The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS) announced its plan to acquire Comcast's 33% share of Hulu, paying $8.6 billion based on a minimum value of $27.5 billion that the companies had agreed on in 2019. This move wasn't unexpected, as reports had indicated Disney's intention to gain full control of Hulu. The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS) had originally acquired a two-thirds stake in Hulu through its purchase of Fox Corp.'s entertainment assets. After the initial payment, Disney and Comcast entered an appraisal process initially set to finish in 2024. The deal is expected to be finalized by July 24. Disney CEO Bob Iger made the following statement: 'We are pleased this is finally resolved. We have had a productive partnership with NBCUniversal, and we wish them the best of luck.' Meanwhile, The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS) has started merging Hulu with its other streaming services, which are also bundled with ESPN+, its sports streaming platform. While we acknowledge the potential of DIS as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk.

Barron Trump's friend Bo Loudon claims he got ICE to detain TikTok star Khaby Lame

Bo Loudon, the purported 'best friend' of Barron Trump, has claimed he is responsible for the arrest of the world's most famous TikToker who was detained by ICE and later forced to leave the U.S. The MAGA, Gen-Z influencer, who has been pictured numerous times with the president and his son, said he had 'personally taken action' to have Khaby Lame deported. 'No one is above the law!' he wrote in a series of posts on X, later adding: 'I've been working with the patriots at President Trump's DHS to make this happen. He was just ARRESTED in Vegas and is in ICE CUSTODY!' Despite a community note on the post calling Loudon out for false information, ICE confirmed that Lame had been detained at the Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas for violating the terms of his visa on June 6. The 25-year-old star had entered the U.S. on April 30 on a temporary visa. A spokesperson for ICE said he had been granted 'voluntary departure' following his arrest and had since left the country. 'No one works faster than President Trump's administration!' Loudon wrote, following news of Lame's departure. ICE has not confirmed Loudon's involvement publicly, and did not provide further information when contacted by The Independent. Lame, whose real name is Serigne Khabane Lame, is a Senegalese-Italian TikToker known for his deadpan reactions to other videos. His viral videos have earned him a following of more than 162 million. While in the country, Lame attended the Met Gala in New York City on May 5. He has not commented publicly on the allegations that he overstayed his visa. It is also unclear if Lame returned to Italy immediately and posted an Instagram Story of himself in São Paulo, Brazil, after leaving the U.S. Despite barely being old enough to vote, Loudon and Barron Trump were unofficially recruited to help the oldest presidential candidate in history tap into the manosphere and capture the 'bro vote' in the run-up to the 2024 presidential election. Loudon, from Palm Beach, Florida, is the son of Dr Gina Loudon, the conservative television pundit and former co-chair of Women for Trump in 2020, and John Loudon, a former Missouri state senator.
