Hey y'all! This warm weather feels so great and has me more than ready for the summer to come! My ideal summer day involves hanging out all day at the beach with my friends and eating fries with ice cream... and I am so excited.
With this in mind, it is also super important to remember that sun safety needs to be made a priority when you're spending long periods of time outside... taking care of your skin in the sun can prevent skin cancer, wrinkles, sun spots, and early aging!
So... how should you protect yourself?
There are a multitude of great products that I recommend. I love the CeraVe Hydrating Facial Sunscreen with an SPF of 30. It is very light weight and rubs in great. As long as you are using a product with an SPF of AT LEAST 30 you will be safe! Zinc Oxide is wonderful at keeping you from burning, and also ensures you will not develop sunspots; but if you decide opt out of this ingredient it's okay.
Make sure you apply a new layer of sunscreen every hour to hour and a half... applying at the beginning of the day is not enough to keep you protected!
If you burn easily, you can wear a hat and sunglasses to keep other parts of your body safe! And when applying sunscreen to your body, make sure you get your hands and feet... they burn quicker than you'd think!
Have a great time enjoying your friends and family and soak in the warm weather!! I know sometimes it can feel tedious and it's easy to neglect sunscreen BUT in the end it is so worth it and your skin will thank you!
