Have Sunscreen on – Can stay longer under the sun
Written on March 5, 2008 by Avatar
Nope, experts say that the protective effects of sunscreen are having a false sense of security for people who do use them making them think they can stay longer under the sun with it. People have long been advised to avoid direct exposure to the sun’s harmful rays between 10am and 4pm when the sun is high in the sky and obstacles provide little protection if none at all. Do not wear dark colored clothes for they absorb more of the suns rays like getting slowly roasted in your own clothes. Use light colored and if possible sun protective gear (clothes, wide brimmed caps and hats) whenever possible. Use sunscreen for everyday activities such as your daily jog around the block when the sun is out and bright. Research also shows that sunscreen is best applied in a thick consistent manner (like buttering toast) and should not be rubbed into the skin as previously used. This lessens their effectivity to protect you from the sun’s harmful rays increasing the risk of contracting skin cancer.
