Being Sun Smart!


I love the summer, It is my favorite season, maybe because i was born in Dominican Republic and is hot or very warm all year round...I don't know. But the thought of winter, coats and boots are quite disturbing to me lol.

I love going to the beach and the pool. Getting together with friends and family and good food are the best. But one thing i do not like is having to watch my skin so much from the sun's harming rays. Eventhough i know we have to protect our skin year round, I do not tan in the other seasons so i only use SPF 30 on my face all year round.

It is only the beginning of July i am already at least 4 shades darker...and please keep in mind i was blessed to be born with lots of color already so I will try and avoid the wrinkles and protect myself better.

So i went online to read about being sun smart and what better website than the American Cancer Society!!!

Attached please find the link on sun protection. Believe me you will be surprised at some facts about sunscreen. Did you know sunscreen is to be applied thickly? Read on and be safe.............
