The bronzed, sun-baked tan that used to be the essential summer fashion accessory is fading in favour of a spray-on tan or a natural look.
But skin care in summer goes beyond sunblock.
Take action:
- stay indoors or in the shade between 10 am and 3 pm;
- play tennis or golf early in the morning or late in the afternoon;
- wear sunblock with a sun-protection factor of at least 15 on all exposed areas of skin every day, rain or shine;
- combine the sunblock with long sleeves; and use plenty of moisturiser if you swim a lot.
