The hot summer months make skin care in Los Angeles an even greater priority. With summer just around the corner, many people will be heading outdoors to soak up the rays. Moderate sun exposure is a great way for your body to absorb vitamin D, but it can also cause skin cancer. Here’s my advice for safely enjoying the sun this summer:

  • If you have pale skin and sunburn easily, take extra precautions to protect your skin. Lighter skin can burn more easily, so opt for a higher SPF (sun protection factor) sunscreen.
  • Try to incorporate hats into your outdoor outfits. This can provide an extra barrier to protect against the sun, and can supplement any wardrobe.
  • Avoid cosmetics and toiletries that strip away the top layer of your skin, or make you more susceptible to sun damage.
  • Choose moisturizers with natural ingredients to strengthen your skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Skin damage is cumulative, so the more you lay out, the more you risk permanently damaging your complexion.

Start protecting your skin at an early stage, and protect your family and friends. If you’re under 20, you should be extremely careful. Adolescence is a critical stage in skin protection.
