Summer is just around the corner, and with it come days spent at the beach, poolside, and relaxing outdoors. But before enjoying the sun, it's essential to know how to properly protect our skin. Here's a practical sun protection guide to keep your skin healthy and radiant all season long.
Choose the right sunscreen
Not all of them Sunscreens They're all the same. It's important to choose one that suits your skin type and activities. For example, if you have sensitive skin, opt for hypoallergenic and fragrance-free formulas. For outdoor activities or sports, look for water- and sweat-resistant options.
Apply the correct amount
For effective protection, it is recommended to apply approximately 2 mg of sunscreen per cm² of skin. This is equivalent to about two tablespoons to cover the body of an average adult.
Reapply frequently
Sunscreen doesn't last all day. It's essential to reapply it every two hours and after swimming, sweating, or toweling off.
Don't expose yourself during peak hours
Avoid sun exposure between 12:00 and 4:00 PM, when UV rays are most intense. If you must be outdoors during this time, seek shade and wear protective clothing, hats, and sunglasses.
Protect all exposed areas
Don't forget to apply sunscreen to areas like your ears, neck, insteps, and lips. These areas are prone to sunburn and are often overlooked.
Take care of your skin after sun exposure
After sun exposure, it's important to hydrate and soothe your skin. Products with ingredients like aloe vera can help reduce inflammation and restore hydration.
