Correct Sun Lotion Administration Techniques

By Haywood Hunter


The purpose of sun lotion is to protect your skin from the sun's ultra violet rays, and so lessen the risk of sunburn and, more seriously, skin cancer. However, if the cream you are using is not applied correctly, you may find it's effects to be negligible. Some points should be borne in mind when applying the cream to your skin.

To begin with, do not be frugal with the amount of sunscreen you use on yourself. You should cover your body from head to toe in this stuff. Err on the side of using too much rather than using too little, it is much safer.

Second, be as thorough as you can be with the cream. Make sure that, in addition to covering the big areas on the body like the chest and back, that equal attention is paid to small, difficult to reach areas as well. These can include the ears and between the toes, to give a couple of examples.

Also, do not fall into the error of assuming you can skip a day or two where applying the sunscreen is unnecessary. Without proper care, your skin will lose all moisture and become dry and wrinkled. The sunscreen should be used every single day to avoid this outcome.

And the sunscreen should be applied a few times a day. Whether you have a swim at some point, get very sweaty, generally your protection is not guaranteed to last twenty four hours a day. You will need to top up your sunscreen periodically to maintain protection against the sun.

So, in summary, the above tips should assist you in correctly applying sun lotion. If you wish to avoid the danger of contracting skin cancer, you will find these tips very helpful. Do be sure, though, to check the instructions that come with the sunscreen you purchase, as they will also be of great benefit to you in staying protected.It is very important to use sun lotion every time one is going out into the sun. Even small exposure to the sun can produce damage.
