SUN SAFETY: HOW TO PROTECT YOUR SKIN FROM SUNBURN WITH PLATINUM DELUXE

 

 

Sunburns are from ultraviolet radiation – or UV rays – causing damage to the skin. When ultraviolet radiation from the sun reaches the skin, it damages the skin cells and causes mutations in their DNA. “This is why people with fairer skin are at greater risk for cancer because these cells become mutated much more quickly than those of people with darker pigmentation. In this article we are going to explore what causes sunburns, how you can prevent them, and what you need to do if you get one.

 

The major cause of sunburn is ultraviolet radiation, also known as UV rays. These are the same type of rays that cause skin cancer; however, most people will never develop skin cancer as a result of ultraviolet radiation from the sun.The reason for this is simple: it takes years and years of daily ultraviolet exposure to develop skin cancer. You are far more likely to die before ever developing skin cancer than to die from developing it, especially if you practice proper guidelines for health and safety in the sun.

 

There are two types of ultraviolet radiation: UV-A and UV-B. Sunscreens work by blocking out either one or both types of UV rays depending on the product.

• Look for sunscreen that uses the term “broad spectrum” because they protect against both UVA and UVB rays as well as other harmful environmental hazards like pollution and chemical exposure. Choose a sunscreen with a minimum SPF rating of 15. Apply sunscreen 15 to 30 minutes before you head out into the sun to give it time to seep into the skin.

 

• Apply sunscreens liberally. Use at least one ounce to cover the entire body.

 

• Use a lip balm with SPF 15 or greater to protect the lips from sun damage. Re-apply sunscreen immediately after going in the water or sweating heavily. Always wear protective clothing and hats when outdoors, particularly during peak sunlight hours (between 10am and 4pm). Wear sunglasses that block UV rays, preferably UV 400 rated glasses that not only protect your eyes but also help make your skin less susceptible to sun damage.
