Wear sunscreen!
2009-05-11 12:13:00 This weekend the weather was amazing here in Malta so on Saturday we spent the whole day at Golden bay swimming and chilling on the beach and yesterday we went down to the rocks opposite our apartment to watch the powerboat race.I did put on some spf 15 but apparently the sun was a lot more hectic than i anticipated and i got so sun burnt!I feel really really bad about it today because every year i promise myself i wont fry in the sun but it just seems to happen.I dont want to look like an old leather bag one day so this is definitely the last time this summer i am getting so burnt although the upside to my skin type is that although i was super red yesterday i am brown today :)At least i never burn my face as i always put on tons of cream and foundation or something to protect it. I dont care if people are like oh no she is wearing make up to the beach because at least i look good and i am protecting my skin!Anyway hopefully none of you are planning to get burnt this summer :)xx

How sunscreen protects ur skin?
2008-03-26 17:15:00 Sunscreen (also known as sunblock, suntan lotion) is a lotion, spray or other topical product that helps protect the skin from the sun's ultraviolet (UV) radiation, and which reduces sunburn and other skin damage, with the goal lowering your risk of skin cancer. However in the United States, the term suntan lotion usually means the opposite of sunscreen, and instead refers to lotion designed to moisturize and maximize UV exposure and tanning rather than block it. These are commonly called indoor tanning lotions designed for use with tanning beds or just suntan lotion if designed for outdoor use and may or may not have SPF protection in them.The most effective sunscreens protect against both UVB (ultraviolet radiation with wavelength between 290 and 320 nanometres), which can cause sunburn, and UVA (between 320 and 400 nanometres), which damages the skin with more long-term effects, such as premature skin aging. Most sunscreens work by containing either an organic chemical compound ...

What Sunscreen Can Do To Your Skin
2008-01-05 18:18:00 Sunscreen creates a chemical barrier between sunlight and your skin. Your skin is at risk anytime you venture into sunlight- whether on the beach, in your backyard or on a brief walk. Sunscreen are not just for the beach.Your sunscreen should have a sun protection factor (SPF) of a least 15... and ifyou're headed to the beach or pool, it should also be water resistant. With anSPF-15 sunscreen, you will remain burn-free for 15 times longer than you would with unprotected skin. You should apply sunscreen liberally to all areas of skin that will be exposed to the sun. Do so at least 15 minutes before heading outdoors, so it has a chance to be absorbed. Pay attention to easily overlooked areas--like your feet, earlobes, a bald spot, the back of your hands, the top of your ears, the nape of your neck and the tip of your nose.make moneyReapply at least once every 3 hours for as long as you are out in the sun.

Sunscreen Products Actually Promote Cancer
2007-08-25 14:49:00 Source: News Target The idea that sunscreen prevents cancer is a myth. It's a myth promoted by a profit-seeking tag-team effort between the cancer industry and the sunscreen industry. The sunscreen industry makes money by selling lotion products that actually contain cancer-causing chemicals. It then donates a portion of that money to the cancer industry through non-profit groups like the American Cancer Society which, in turn, run heart-breaking public service ads urging people to use sunscreen to "prevent cancer." The scientific evidence, however, shows quite clearly that sunscreen actually promotes cancer by blocking the body's absorption of ultraviolet radiation, which produces vitamin D in the skin. Vitamin D, as recent studies have shown, prevents up to 77 of ALL cancers in women (breast cancer, colon cancer, cervical cancer, lung cancer, brain tumors, multiple myeloma... you name it). Meanwhile, the toxic chemical ingredients used in most sunscreen products are a... |
