While you enjoy the outdoors this season, it’s important to protect yourself from the sun. Since May is National Skin Cancer Awareness Month, we want to remind everyone to put their Skin First throughout the coming months – it can help ensure a lifetime of healthy skin. Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States. The incidence of skin cancer and specifically melanoma, a particularly aggressive skin cancer, has been reported to be linked to sun burns; so it’s important to take the correct precautions to protect you and your family against this disease.
With Memorial Day weekend approaching, you’ll probably be spending more time at barbeques and neighborhood get-togethers. Even if you put on sunscreen when you leave your house, you need to reapply every two hours, after towel drying, swimming or perspiring. Even when the sky is overcast, using a product with SPF is still important because the sun’s harmful UV rays can cause damage whether the weather is sunny or cloudy. Products like Eucerin’s Everyday Protection Face Lotion SPF 30 and Everyday Protection Body Lotion SPF 15 are recommended by the Skin Cancer Foundation to help protect your skin.
What are some other tips you have to avoid the sun when outside for long periods of time?
