Dark Side of Tanning campaign
There is nothing healthy about a TAN
Australia has the highest skin cancer rate of any country in the world
Protect yourself in five ways from skin cancer:
1. Put on a broad-brimmed hat that shades your face, neck and ears
2. Wear sun protective clothing that covers as much of your body as possible
3. Seek shade
4. Wear wrap-around sunglasses
5. Apply SPF30+ broad spectrum water resistant sunscreen liberally to clean, dry skin, at least 20 minutes before being exposed to the sun, and reapply at least every two hours when outdoors
My OWN quote... "research the Suntan lotions before you buy it as there are bad toxins in many of them so buy a Sunscreen that is healthy for your skin and NOT toxic"
Always prepare for exposure to ultraviolet radiation from the sun when going outdoors, even for a brief period of time, by undertaking multiple sun protective behaviours.
Avoid going outdoors unprotected between 10am 3pm when ultraviolet radiation is the strongest.
Sunscreen is not adequate protection on its own and should not be used to extend the time you spend in the sun.
Sunbeds and solaria also emit ultraviolet radiation, so be aware of the risks associated with tanning.
Wee still need to get a small amount of sun for the Vitamin D but cover up Avoid going outdoors unprotected between 10am 3pm when ultraviolet radiation is the strongest.
