Prolonged exposure to the sun has a negative impact on the skin, partially solve this problem sunscreens, but only hope for them is not worth it, said dermatologist Valentine Salmanov.

In hot weather, when resting in the open area, especially on the beach, the skin can not be left without protection. Because sunscreen should be in the "cosmetic" of each family, and for children need a separate series. But it is worth remembering that cosmetics alone are not enough.

"No matter how expensive and quality your spray or sun protection cream was, it's worth remembering that this is only an auxiliary tool. Even if you put them on a few layers, from staying in the sun in the hottest hours - from 11 to 4 - no benefit will be. Wear a wide-brimmed hat or baseball cap, sunglasses and be careful near the water, as it reflects the rays of the sun, and in the water the body tans faster.

Try to choose a water resistant protective equipment, even if you are not going to swim. Such a remedy is more "tenacious" and is not washed off with sweat or after you rub your face or neck with a damp napkin. In addition, we all know that your shoulders burn very fast in the sun and, as if intensively, you did not spread them while wearing bags and backpacks and clothes with long sleeves (and light linen cloths covering your hands and shoulders are recommended in the heat) , The cream is erased, but the waterproof cream still remains a little longer, "- says the expert.

The doctor also calls for careful study of the label of creams and pay attention to the validity of a particular remedy. After applying a protective cream in the morning, do not expect that he will provide protection for the whole day. All sunscreens should be applied throughout the day constantly, if you are at the water and bathe, or play volleyball, badminton and sweat, then every two hours you need to update the protection.
