fun in the sun

Choose CareOne for everything fun
under the sun!

As summer heats up, we're starting to spend more time outdoors soaking up the sun. But too much exposure to the sun's damaging rays leads to a painful sunburn and can cause long-term skin damage. Keep your family safe in the sun with these simple tips:

  • Select a sunscreen that offers broad-spectrum UVA and UVB protection and apply at least 15 minutes before going outside.
  • Choose a water-resistant sunscreen, but keep in mind that no sunscreen is waterproof. Reapply every 40 minutes during periods of heavy activity or if you're in the water.
  • Don't use expired sunscreen or any sun protection products that are over 8 months old, as they can lose their effectiveness.
  • Ask your pharmacist for sun protection advice, particularly if you take prescription medications that may heighten your sensitivity to the sun.
