Looking for short chunks of really useful info, something that will set you right on track without taking hours of your time?

Sun rays can burn even through thick glass, and under water.
Centrum tip - Get the best from your sunscreen
Always use a sunscreen that protects your skin against UV-A and UV-B rays.
Centrum tip - Be sun-savvy this summer

Centrum tip - First aid for sunburn
Sunburn easily results in first-degree burns, especially in young children.

Centrum tip – Screen yourself against the sun
Heading for the beach? Always use a sunscreen that protects your skin against UVA and UVB rays.
