Sun Protection During Winter
Just because the sun isn't as strong during the winter months doesn't mean you can skip the sunscreen! In fact, the sun's rays can still be just as damaging during the winter, especially at higher altitudes or on reflective surfaces like snow. To protect your skin during the winter, be sure to: (1) Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 every day, even when it's cloudy. (2) Cover up with protective clothing, like a hat and long sleeves. (3) Avoid being outside during peak UV hours. (4) Stay hydrated and moisturize regularly to keep your skin healthy and protected. Don't let the winter weather fool you – it's important to protect your skin year-round!
