To minimize the risk of skin cancer, think of sunscreen as your best friend. Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 15 every day, 30 minutes before heading outdoors. And make it a habit of doing so, even on cloudy or cool days. Don’t forget to reapply every two hours, especially if you’re sweating or swimming.

But sunscreen isn’t the only tool in your sun safety arsenal. Wearing protective clothing, such as wide-brimmed hats, and lightweight, long-sleeved shirts, can provide additional coverage. And don’t forget about those stylish sunglasses to protect your eyes from harmful UV rays as well.

By taking these precautions, you’re not just protecting your skin from immediate and painful damage; you’re also investing in long-term skin health and the prevention of skin cancer. So, no matter the season, make sun protection a non-negotiable part of your daily routine.
