News India Live, Digital Desk: Sun Protection: We also go out in the sun, our skin is directly attacked – UV rays. These harmful rays not only cause problems like tanning, tanning, pigmentation, and sunburn, but in the long term, they can also make the skin prematurely age and can increase the risk of skin cancer. In this case, sunscreen lotion acts as a strong shield for your skin.

But does just applying sunscreen work? No! It is very important to apply sunscreen properly and make it a part of your routine. If you also want to get bright, tan-free skin and avoid the harmful rays of the sun, then adopt these methods today!

The right way to apply sunscreen and the mistakes that are often made:

1. Apply a sufficient quantity:

   • Mistake: Often, people apply very small amounts of sunscreen, which does not provide enough protection to the skin.

   • The right way: For an adult, apply sunscreen as much as a length of at least one finger on the face and neck. Apply at least one teaspoon of sunscreen on the open parts of the body. Do not skimp!

2. Apply at the right time:

   • Mistake: Apply sunscreen just before exiting the house or after coming in the sun.

   • The right way: At least due to the sunshine, for 15-20 minutes, wear sunscreen. With this, the skin absorbs it well, and the UV is ready to fight the rays.

3. Put it all year, not just in the sun:

   • Mistake: Think that sunscreen has to be applied only in summer or direct sunlight.

   • The right way: UV rays damage the skin throughout the year, and also in the clouds. So, in every season, whether you are indoors or outside, apply sunscreen.

      

4. Repeated (Re -Re-replication):

   • Mistake: Once you put it on a holiday! Do not understand the need to be applied again throughout the day.

   • The right way: Every 2-3 hours, apply sunscreen again, especially if you sweat, swim, or wipe your face.

5. Choose the right SPF and PA:

   • Mistake: They buy sunscreen.

   • The right way: SPF 30 or more, and at least PA +++ (which protects from UVA rays). Choose a sunscreen.

   • “Mineral” sunscreen (which contains zinc oxide or titanium dioxide) is better for sensitive skin.

6. Don’t forget the lips, ears and necks:

   • Mistake: Only by putting it on the face, think it is done.

   • The right way: Apply sunscreen or SPF lip balm on your ears, back of the neck and lips. They also come in contact with sunlight.

By adopting these simple rules, you can protect your skin from the harmful rays of the sun and keep it young and shiny for a long time. Your skin needs safety, wearing this armour today
