Learn all you can about sun care. Being exposed to the sun now can increase a person’s chances of developing skin cancer or skin damage later.
That’s why it’s important to protect yourself from the sun.
- Wear sunscreen with an SPF of 15 or higher every day, even on cloudy days.
- Use a sunscreen that blocks both UVA rays and UVB rays.
- Reapply sunscreen every 1½ to 2 hours. Also reapply it after you sweat or go swimming, even if the label says it’s sweatproof or waterproof.
- Some medicines, such as acne medicines and birth control pills, can make you more sensitive to the sun. Ask your doctor about any medicines you take.
- Wear a hat to protect your face. Wear sunglasses to protect your eyes.
