Still Getting Sunburned Even With Sunscreen?
You might be making one of these 5 common mistakes. Let’s fix that.
- The first mistake we all make is not reading the label. You should always choose a “broad-spectrum” sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher.
- Second, using too little. You need about a shot glass for your whole body and a nickel-sized amount for your face.
- Third- this is a common one. I did it too, skipping sunscreen on cloudy days. Remember, 80% of UV rays pass through clouds! You definitely need sunscreen on those cloudy days.
- Using old sunscreen. You should check the expiration date—expired sunscreen won’t protect you.
- Relying only on sunscreen. Along with sunscreen, wear a hat, sunglasses, and UPF clothing. They all help protect you from the sun.
On top of everything, don’t forget to reapply every 2 hours, especially after swimming or sweating. Follow Ehealthy Info for more easy sun protection tips!
