It is important to use sunscreen lotion during the summer. The harsh sunlight causes age spots, tanning and wrinkles. The basic thing to keep in mind is that no two people have the same skin, so the lotion differs as well. If you have oily skin, use a water based lotion. Use a water resistant lotion while going swimming. Children’s and babies’ skins are more sensitive than adults, so use an appropriate lotion for them.
‘UVA rays account for up to 95 percent of the UV radiation reaching the Earth`s surface. Although they are less intense than UVB, UVA rays are 30 to 50 times more prevalent. UVB, the chief cause of skin reddening and sunburn, tends to damage the skin`s more superficial epidermal layers. It plays a key role in the development of skin cancer and a contributory role in tanning and photo aging’, says the skincancer.org.
