Protect your skin from the sun

Here are some ways in which you can avoid the sun:

1. Stay away from the sun especially in the middle of the day (approximately from 10 a.m. to four p.m.) when the sun is at its hottest.

2. Block. Use sunscreen lotions or those with Sun Protection Factor (SPF). Using SPF 15 or higher is recommended.

3. Cover up. Hats, sunglasses, sun visors and protective clothing will provide effective barrier to sunlight.

4. Speak out. Help promote awareness regarding sun protection and the dangers of too much sunlight.

So next time you wanted to ride the hype of sunbathing and tanning, remember that no amount of beauty can compensate for your life.
