Sunscreen is a topical product designed to protect your skin from harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation, primarily UVA and UVB rays. These rays can cause sunburn, premature aging, and even skin cancer.

Key points to remember when choosing and using sunscreen:

• Broad-spectrum protection: This means it protects against both UVA and UVB rays.
• SPF 30 or higher: This level of protection is recommended for daily use.
• Water-resistant: Choose a water-resistant sunscreen if you’ll be spending time in water.
• Reapply every two hours: Especially after swimming or sweating.
• Use enough: Most people don’t apply enough sunscreen. Aim for about a shot glass full to cover your entire body.
