HEALTHY SUN TIPS & RESOURCES
  • Apply lotion at least 20 minutes before you go out and re-apply every two hours for maximum effectiveness
  • Wear protective clothing and accessories, such as long-sleeve shirts and pants, wide-brimmed hats and sunglasses
  • Follow the “Shadow Rule” – if your shadow is shorter than you are, the sun’s damaging rays are at their strongest and you are likely to sunburn
  • The hours between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. are the most hazardous for UV exposure
  • UV rays reach you even on cloudy and hazy days. UV rays will also reflect off any surface like water, cement, sand, and snow.
  • Most sun damage occurs in the first 18 years of life when skin exposure to harmful ultraviolet light is greatest and when preventive measures are least employed due mostly to inadequate public awareness
