all things in moderation is real - I wear sunblock pretty much everyday but I try to also get outside in the morning for 15 minutes or so without sunglasses or sunblock.
According to multiple doctors I've visited most of the women they see have Vitamin D deficiency (they generally won't believe I don't unless I do a blood test) which has some nasty knock on health effects.
High quality sunscreen is generally fine, but avoiding the sun or consistently using sunscreens that block all UV are both more dangerous than moderate sun exposure. If you are avoiding all sun or using full UV sunblock it's important to ensure other sources of Vitamin D.
