U Look Great!

When I was a child (back in the dark ages), we didn’t seem to worry so much about applying sun cream on our skin.   I remember many occasions on family holidays when I would end up getting burnt and sometimes being in rather a lot of pain!   As a red head, I was particularly susceptible and would feel envious of friends who had gorgeous tans (I just went red, my skin would peel and I’d be white underneath). We are now much more aware of the damage the sun can do to our skin.   We understand that exposure to the sun will give us wrinkles, but we also run the risk of contracting skin cancer. For the majority of us, these facts encourage us to slap on the sun screen at the first sign of a sunny day, and we will always make sure we have a good supply for our annual holidays (especially if it’s a beach holiday).   Surely if you go for a high factor (SPF 30 or above) with UVA and UVB protection, you are safe and fully protected.   But have you ever stopped...
