girls just wanna have sun
Can you sunbathe safely?
After an ice cold winter nothing is so blissful as to enjoy the sunshine! But the sun is not only a source of pleasure, she remains dangerous for our health. it still safe to enjoy the sun? Of course, if you do it wisely!
The sun is good for us. Sunlight stimulates the production of vitamin D, may have a positive effect on psoriasis and eczema and we also feel better on sunny days. But please note, healthy tanning does not exist. A tanned skin has been damaged anyway and that damage can contribute in long-term to the development of skin cancer. That does not mean you aren’t able to enjoy the sun, but make sure you follow these hints well:
"That red skin will look tanned afterwards."
Many think that a little redness at the start of the holiday is part of the game. Wrong reasoning! Redness means that the epidermis is damaged and that is very unhealthy. Even those who already have a tan, need to apply sunscreen. A tinted skin protects only slightly against UV radiation. A brown skin is a protection with an equivalent to an SPF of 2 or 3.
Clouds, so I don’t have to apply sunscreen?
Even on cloudy days you can tan or get a sunburn. Clouds only stop parts of the sun's radiation. So on a cool but sunny day, you might get a sunburn as well. Even if you use a waterproof sunscreen, you should apply it every two hours! Such waterproof cream may be better than regular sunscreen, but after swimming it’s almost all gone.
Continue lubrication is the key!
