Sunglasses

Why wear sunglasses?Properly chosen sunglasses can help your vision by reducing glare, improving contrast and making you feel more comfortable when out in the sun. Sunglasses can also help to prevent some direct damage to the eye from light. It's not necessary to buy high-priced brands to get good UV protection, as most sunglasses now on the market block a large percentage of UV radiation. It makes sense to wear sunglasses when it's sunny ­­ both for comfort and to reduce any risk from UV and blue light

Skin care in summer

1. Never, ever step out in the sun without wearing a sunscreen lotion. 2. If you are dusky skinned and a tan does not show up, this does NOT mean you are any less at risk of suffering the damage caused by UV radiation. 3. What kind of lotion should you apply? Well, look for one which has an SPF (Sun Protection Factor) of at least 15. This means that it will protect your skin for 15 times longer than if you had no sunscreen. It does not mean it offers stronger protection, but that it offers longer lasting protection. It all depends on how sensitive your skin is to the sun. Thus, if your skin starts going red after you�ve been in the sun for ten minutes, you will be able to stand the sun for 1 and a half hours if you use an SPF of 15. 4. If your skin is extra sensitive, go in for a sun tan lotion with a higher SPF. 5. Apply the lotion at least 15 minutes before exposure to the sun. 6. If you are going swimming, make sure you wear a water-resistant sunscreen. The combination of chlorine and water is murder for your skin! 7. Don�t forget your lips! Lips are sensitive, and they require special protection because they can�t tan. Lipstick is better than nude lips, and if you can get your hands on a lipstick which offers UV protection, there�s nothing like it! 8. Remember, a sun tan lotion will not prevent you from tanning. It will, however, filter out harmful UV radiation. 9. Stay in the shade as much as possible, especially between 11am and 3 pm. The sun is at its hottest at this time. 10. When you get home after being in the sun for some time, apply an after-sun lotion. This moisturizes your skin, and it also has certain ingredients especially for sun-exposed skin.
