Sun burn

Sun burn
Did you know that if you protected your skin from the sun you wouldn’t get a wrinkle on your face until you were 60? It is important to never underestimate the effect of sun on your skin. The effect of sun on your skin is the single most damaging factor in the life of most people's skin,and yet thousands of people take no care whatsoever to reduce this impact. This is why it is becoming more and more important that people do become aware of the effect of sun on your skin.
The effect of sun on your skin begins with the way the sun’s rays destroy collagen. Collagen is the substance that gives your skin its elasticity, and without it, wrinkles appear on your skin. In the peak sunlight, collagen and elastin damage can occur in as little as three minutes.
The effect of sun on your skin often produces a tan, which unfortunately many people consider to be healthy and vibrant looking. A tan is actually evidence that your skin has been damaged, not that it is healthy, and should be avoided. If that tanned look is truly important to you, begin to look to artificial tanning agents.
Solution
So just remember, keep wearing your sunscreen and stay out of the sun when possible. For day by day, wear SPF15, but if you are on the beach or sightseeing on holiday, wear SPF30 or above.Australian research has shown that this done more than just protect against further damage.
Stay out of the sun or atleast stay covered up between the peak hours of 11 to 3 o, clock, these hours can still cause damage to your skin.
