☀️ Sun Safety Starts with Healthy Habits ☀️
Living near the coast means spending more time outdoors, and while sunshine has its benefits, protecting your skin is one of the most important things you can do for your long-term health.
🧴 Sun Safety Tips:
✔️ Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher every day
✔️ Reapply every 2 hours (and after swimming or sweating)
✔️ Wear sunglasses, hats, and protective clothing when possible
✔️ Seek shade during peak sun hours (10 AM–4 PM)
✔️ Avoid tanning beds
🔍 Know Your Skin
Perform regular skin checks. If you notice a new mole, a spot that changes in appearance, or a lesion that won’t heal, schedule an evaluation with your healthcare provider.
💬 A note about sunscreen and misinformation:
There is a lot of misinformation circulating about sunscreen safety. Major health authorities state that there is no medical evidence linking approved sunscreen ingredients to cancer when used as directed.
On the contrary, UV radiation from the sun is a proven carcinogen and the primary cause of skin cancer. Consistent sun protection remains one of the most effective ways to reduce risk.
☁️ If you’re concerned about sunscreen absorption or prefer a more “mineral-based” option, choose a physical sunscreen such as zinc oxide or titanium dioxide. These sit on the skin’s surface and reflect UV rays rather than being absorbed.
Your skin is your body’s largest organ, protect it today to keep it healthy for years to come. 💙🌴
