Suntans and sunburns are dangerous, and can increase your risk of skin cancer. Tanning booths and sun lamps are NOT safe and can also increase your risk of skin cancer. Lip balms that have an SPF of 15 or more will protect your lips. Don't use oils as they do not offer adequate protection. Put sunscreen on every day if you are going to be outside for more than 20 minutes.
Women can apply sunscreen under makeup.
Wearing a sunscreen every day may also help protect against wrinkles. Apply sunscreen to dry skin 15 to 30 minutes before going outdoors. Make sure to apply it to any part of your body that is not covered by clothes. Reapply sunscreen after swimming or heavy sweating. Protect your family.
