Sun Lotion Methods

By Haywood Hunter


The purpose of sun lotion is to protect your skin from the sun's ultra violet rays, and so lessen the risk of sunburn and, more seriously, skin cancer. However, if the cream you are using is not applied correctly, you may find it's effects to be negligible. Some points should be borne in mind when applying the cream to your skin.

First, make sure that you use plenty of cream on your body. There is no point in being economical with this stuff. Make sure you have a generous amount of cream applied to ensure that you are well-protected.

Be very careful to ensure that you apply the sunscreen to every inch of your body. Covering the back and the chest is a fairly straightforward process. But due care should also be paid to your ears, for instance, or between your toes.

For every day that you are staying in a very sunny climate, you should be using sunscreen. This is to ensure that your skin retains moisture and offsets early wrinkles developing. Most importantly, the threat of skin cancer also developing will abate as a result.

And the sunscreen should be applied a few times a day. Whether you have a swim at some point, get very sweaty, generally your protection is not guaranteed to last twenty four hours a day. You will need to top up your sunscreen periodically to maintain protection against the sun.

Before administering sun lotion of any description, always make yourself aware of the instructions for applying sunscreen that come with the container. The sunscreen will keep the threat of skin cancer at bay with effective use. And if you combine the instructions with the ways listed above, your risk of exposure to such cancer will decrease dramatically.
