Why wear sunscreen?

Hey guys, since it is summer everyone is at the pool, beach, and just doing outdoor activities it is important to stay protected from the harmful rays of the sun. if not protected skin damage, skin cancer, wrinkling, premature aging, and a leathery appearance of the skin may occur. research has shown that continuous exposure to the skin may damage you immune system. Sunscreens are so important to wear while your young to prevent these things as much as possible, but even while older it is still as important. Sunscreen may not be effective enough if not reapplied regularly and liberally. It is also important to pick the right SPF for your skin. I usually use SPF 50 or if I know I will be in the sun a lot or at the beach for a day I will bring SPF 80 to reapply. Remember to do your best to protect your skin and especially your face with sunscreen, sun hat, or sunglasses this summer!
