Well I am trying something new, thinking outside the box.........blogging.
It's the beginning of August, and even though we have had a lot of rain and a hot summer, I wanted to share my experience and knowledge on sun care.

I have a fair complexion for being Armenian, and always envious of my Armenian friends who were darker than  able to tan. I just burn. As a kid, I would lay out on the beach with Coppertone while my mother yelled for me to put a shirt on. How uncool does that look? Well how uncool is it when you have blisters all over your nose and chest? I would suffer with burning skin, as my mom would spread yogurt on my body just to take the sting out.

I am a big proponent on proper sunscreen now. Wearing daily sunscreen is imperative for EVERYONE! The sun does not discriminate; and 60% of the rays are out even if it's raining. You also get most of your damage before you are 20 yrs old. and the damage is cumulative.
Working for a dermatologist, I saw too many skin cancers that could have been avoided. And yes, you have to be using a safe sunblock or sunscreen. In order to protect against UVA (aging rays) and UVB (burning rays) you need to use at least 1 ounce of a broad spectrum sunscreen of 30 SPF, all over the exposed areas of your body. If you are going to be outside, apply it 30 min. before you leave the house and re apply every 90 min. Wearing a hat & sunglasses will also protect your scalp and eyes.
If you would like a recommendation on the sunscreen I now use, send me a comment.

Thanks for reading!
Donna
