In summer, we love to spend our time outdoors to enjoy the beautiful weather but sun exposure can be extremely harmful! The sun sends energy and light through rays of UV radiation that can cause harm to our skin. UV rays can cause skin ageing, sunburn and contribute to the risk of skin cancer, but sunscreen is here to help!
Giving our skin the best protection when we’re outdoors in summer is crucial! Sunscreen is the best and most effective way for your to do this. Sunscreen has a sun protection factor (SPF) that shows how much protection a product offers, the higher the number, the better! And remember, the more applications the better!
