The sun is a wonderful source of vitamin D and can brighten our mood, but it can also cause damage if we expose ourselves to it without protection. Everyone knows that sunburn is painful, but the long-term effects of sun exposure can be even worse. In this blog post, I want to emphasize the importance of daily sun protection.
- Reduces the risk of skin cancer
The sun's harmful UV rays can increase the risk of skin cancer. Regular sunbathing or spending long hours in the sun without protection can damage the skin and increase the risk of skin cancer. By using sunscreen daily, we reduce our risk of skin cancer.
- Prevents premature skin ageing
UV rays can also lead to premature skin ageing by impairing the skin's collagen production. Collagen is the protein that keeps our skin firm and elastic. If we expose ourselves to the sun without protection, the skin can wrinkle and sag more quickly. Daily sun protection can help to slow down the natural ageing process of our skin.
- Protects against sunburn
Sunscreen is important to avoid sunburn. Sunburn is painful and can cause long-term damage to the skin.
