With the arrival of summer, many people think of sunscreen as an essential item to protect their skin from the sun’s UV rays. But did you know that it is important to use sunscreen all year round, not just in summer? In this article, we will talk about the importance of sunscreen and how and why to use it.
Why should you use sunscreen all year round?
The skin is our first line of defense against the external elements. The sun’s UV rays can damage our skin, causing sunburn, premature aging, and, in severe cases, skin cancer so they are harmful to our skin all year round, not just in summer. Although it is true that UV rays are more intense in summer, they are still harmful in other seasons. For example, in winter, UV rays can be especially harmful to the skin in snowy areas, since snow can reflect sunlight and increase the skin’s exposure to UV rays. That is why it is important to protect our skin from the sun all year round, especially in summer, when UV rays are strongest.
How do we protect our skin from the sun?
So how do we protect our skin from the sun? The answer is simple: with sunscreen. La proteccion solar actúa como un escudo protector contra los rayos UV, ayudando a prevenir los efectos dañinos del sol en nuestra piel. But not all sun creams are the same. It is important to look for a cream with a sun protection factor (SPF) of at least 50 and that is broad-spectrum, which means that it protects against UVA and UVB rays.
In addition, it is important to apply sunscreen correctly. because most people do not apply it enough and do not reapply it as often as necessary. To get the right protection, you need to cover all of your exposed skin. A general rule of thumb is to apply a dime-sized amount to each exposed body part and reapply every two hours or after sweating or swimming.
Finally, it is important to remember that sunscreen is not the only way to protect your skin from the sun. It is important to seek shade, wear protective clothing and wide-brimmed hats, and avoid direct sun at peak times.
