Quick Tips To Prevent The Tan

While we can simple churn a few home-made remedies to get rid of the stubborn tan, but here are few quick tips to prevent the tan in the first place.

Avoid Peak Sunlight Time

If it is very important to go out during summer months, make sure you avoid scheduling any activity between 10 am to 4 pm when the sun’s ultra violet rays are the strongest. Hence, there are more chances of you getting tanned.

Wear Protective Clothing

It is very important to protect yourself from harmful sun rays. Overexposure to UV rays of the sun can cause many dangerous diseases including skin cancer. Hence, it is important that one selects proper clothing when stepping out.

One should mostly wear dark or bright colored clothes that have much higher ultra violet protection than light-coloured clothing. Also, when travelling under skin, make sure to wear full-sleeves and long pants so that most of the skin is not exposed directly to sun.

Wear Cap And Sun Glasses

Direct exposure to skin is dangerous and hence it is very important to cover and face and eyes as they are very sensitive.

While outdoors, make sure to wear a cap and sun glasses to help curb risks of ultra violet rays. Do not purchase cheap sunglasses as they tend to do more harm to the eyes. Always buy glasses with UV protector in them.

Wear A Good Sunscreen Lotion Or Cream

In tropical countries like ours, the sun rays are strong enough to burn the skin, causing many ailments. Hence it is very important to wear a good sun-screen lotion or cream daily. Even if you are not stepping out in the sun directly, you must apply the sun screen daily.

Wash face and hands after returning from sun

After returning from outside, it is very important to wash hands and face, which are directly exposed to the sun light. It helps prevent burning of the skin.

Seek Shade

Whenever possible stand under the shade when outdoor. Even though the shade does not block all UV rays, it can help provide relief from the heat and protection.
