Sun protection
Daily sun protection limits early signs of aging, helps keep new dark spots from forming, and lowers the risk of skin cancer.
Ingredients that help
- Mineral filters: zinc oxide and titanium dioxide
- Chemical filters, such as avobenzone and octocrylene, are also widely used
What dermatologists recommend
- Wear a broad-spectrum, water-resistant SPF 30 or higher sunscreen every day.
- Reapply about every 2 hours, and after swimming or sweating.
- Use enough: about a shot glass for your body, and at least a teaspoon for your face.
- Seek shade, especially from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., and wear a wide-brimmed hat.
