In the spotlight but out of the sunlight.

Melissa Gorga revealed to Page Six Style that her “crazy” secret to keeping radiant skin is doing everything she can to keep her face out of direct sunlight.

“My friends giggle at me. I am that girl that will not allow my face in the sun, like I’m so anti-sun on the face. It’s crazy,” she told us while promoting her collaboration with Rao’s Homemade .

Melissa Gorga ‘excited’ about possibility of ‘fresh faces’ on ‘RHONJ’ amid contentious cast

The “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star, 45, clarified that she “allows” her body in the sun, but she’s “always” wearing a “major hat” or “under an umbrella” to shield her face from the UV rays.

“If the sun is hitting my skin, I start to have like a panic attack. My friends giggle at me and they cannot believe how great I am with that, and I don’t let any slips happen,” she shared.

Gorga began the practice after learning about the harsh effects sun can have on aging the skin, and stands by the mantra of getting the “least amount of sun on your face as possible.”

“I’m trying to tell my daughter that right now because she’s at that age where she’ll lay out in my backyard with oil all over her and I’m like, ‘Please believe me! Just listen to me!’ And I try to tell her all the time,” Gorga said, referring to 18-year-old Antonia.

The Envy owner added that she also prioritizes taking care of her neck and chest, so she recommends focusing on those areas “just as much as their face, if not more so.”

When she’s not in the sun, she takes care of her skin with a usual routine of night creams, moisturizers and under-eye creams to “keep it wet,” she says.

Gorga previously spoke to The Post about some of her beauty staples –– especially ones she uses in the summer with a “less is more” mindset.

Some of her favorite products include Fenty Beauty Body Sauce Body Luminizing Tint ($52) for adding a “little glow” to her skin, her “go-to” Lancôme Rénergie Yeux Eye Cream ($85), her “absolute favorite” It Cosmetics CC+ Cream ($47) and a Charlotte Tilbury Cheek to Chic Blush ($42) that gives her a “youthful” look, among many others.

The Bravolebrity spilled on her health and wellness regiment while promoting her partnership with Rao’s Homemade and her favorite jarred marinara sauce.

“Growing up as an Italian girl and always just watching my mother cook, all we did since we were young girls was learn how to make red sauce. So being able to partner with Rao’s Homemade has been a dream, because honestly, I’m so picky and it is literally the only one that I will eat besides my own red sauce,” she raved.
