And if the sun has caught you by surprise …

Hurry and prepare your skin now to get the perfect and healthy tan.

Summer and long days at the beach are just around the corner, so that time of year is approaching when we expose our body to the sun for a long time. It is a time to enjoy and get dark, but always with caution. 38% of Spaniards are still unaware that excessive exposure to the sun can cause serious skin damage. The key to avoiding them, and keeping wrinkles and blemishes at bay, is prevention. In our gallery you can find the best facial, body and hair sunscreen for your skin.

One of the things you can do right now is to prepare your skin for the summer season. If you want to go dark without taking risks and achieve a golden and uniform tone, you can activate the melanin in your body with lotions that you have to apply a few days before the first sun exposure. There are also some foods, such as citrus fruits or carrots, and products, such as masks or creams, that will help you start preparing your body for so many hours of sun.

Using a good sunscreen is a matter of health

But, above all, keep in mind that the most important thing is to choose a good sunscreen, because it allows you to avoid spots and burns and helps prevent skin cancer. In Spain, the incidence of skin cancer has grown by about 40% in recent years, so using a good protective cream and avoiding burns has become an obligation and a health issue.

Even if it is cloudy, if you go to the beach, remember that you always have to use protection , since the ultraviolet rays are weaker but you can still burn. Along the same lines, do not forget that, although in the summer season there is the greatest risk of getting burned, the sun's rays pass through the clouds, the windows and the car windows, so that in winter it is also important that you are protected from the sun.

WHAT DO I HAVE TO FOCUS ON

Sun Protection Factor. When you go to choose a sunscreen, you have to pay attention to the protective index, which should be higher than 30, although this always depends on your skin phototype. Be careful, because using a high sunscreen is not a guarantee that you will not burn: you have to apply it well and continuously while you are exposed to the sun.

UVA rays. Also remember to note that the letters UVA (the rays that affect us even when there is no strong sun and that are responsible for photoaging) on the container are surrounded by a circle. If so, this means that this protective cream follows the recommendations of the European Union regarding protection against UVA radiation.

Type of skin. Take into account the type of skin you have and what you should add when choosing a sunscreen. Ask yourself the question: should it provide hydration, be hypoallergenic, anti-stain …? You can assess this yourself, but it is best to seek the advice of a dermatologist.

FALSE MYTHS

"Last year's one works for me." That is an error. If they are open, cosmetic products, like medicines, lose their effectiveness, so it is important that you buy a new sunscreen for this summer.
"I'm safe in the water." On the contrary, the water reflects the rays of the sun and up to one meter below it, 100% of the radiation is received. If you spend all day on the beach, being in the water does not reduce the risk of burns.
"The hair does not need to be protected." The hair spray prevents your hair from being damaged and acts on the scalp, which can also burn. If you have a very open part of your hair, it is especially important that you take this into account.

SOLAR: USE MANUAL

What amount? For the whole body, the amount of cream you have to use is about the size of a golf ball. If it is by areas (face, arm, leg), then you have to use the equivalent of a 2 euro coin or 8 sprays with a spray cream.
When is it applied? Nothing to put on the sunscreen once you're on the beach. Try to always wear it at least 30 minutes before the sun hits you, and repeat the application every 2 hours while you are exposed to it. Remember that it is also very important to repeat the operation after each bath.
