How to apply Sunscreen

Summer is around the corner and during warm weather, the sun rays damages our skin. Here are simple steps on how to apply sunscreen. 

*Apply sunscreen right out of the shower instead of body lotion when planning on going out all day. 

*Use a face cream with sunscreen for your face rather than one intended for the body. 

*After a swim, reapply sunscreen every hour or two. Even though most sunscreens are waterproof, its better to be safe than sorry. Avoid sunburned and damaged skin at all times. 

*Always have sunscreen on hand just in case you get caught under the sun for a long period of time. Have one in your purse, beach bag, work bag, and your gym bag.

*Finally, take antioxidant supplements along with your usual vitamins intake. The antioxidants are believed to help protect the body from free-radical damage, so don't forget a balanced diet consisting of 5-8 servings of fruits and vegetables per day.


Hope you enjoy these great tips!
