For photoprotection to be effective, remember to apply it in sufficient quantity, spread it evenly and reapply it every 2 hours, after bathing or sweating. In addition to the use of topical photoprotection, use complementary protection methods: accessories such as brimmed hats, sunglasses and appropriate clothing. Reinforce hair care with oral photoprotection (in the form of a food supplement) together with a balanced diet. Avoid exposure during the central hours of the day (between 12:00 and 16:00). Do not expose babies and young children to direct sunlight. Overexposure causes oxidative damage, photoaging and promotes the appearance of skin diseases. Don't forget to apply hair aftersun so that your hair maintains the necessary antioxidants and daily hydration.
Periodically check the appearance or changes in moles (shape, size or colour). If you take photosensitising medication or have a skin condition, it is especially important to follow these recommendations. In any case, if after sun exposure you develop blisters, fever or headache, consult your doctor.
