Don't forget your lips!
Did you know that your lips are one of the most sensitive parts of your body and can burn very easily if they are not protected from the sun?
So how can you avoid burning your lips? Well, the obvious solution is to stay out of the sun...but who is going to do that, summer is too short! So when you do go out, be sure that you take the following precautions:
* Wear a brimmed hat that shields the face from the sun
* Use a good quality natural waterproof SPF lip balm such as Badger SPF 15 natural chemical free balm and don't forget to re-apply!
* If possible, try to avoid being outdoors during peak hours (10am - 4pm)
*For children that are too young for SPF lip balms, the best solution is a wide brimmed hat that will protect their entire face.
Of course, don't forget the rest of your body...wear sunglasses, wear clothing made of tightly woven fabrics to avoid constant sun exposure and for any skin that is exposed, be sure to use a high quality sunscreen such as Badger SPF 30 Natural Sunscreen. And remember that your skin is not only vulnerable to sunburn during these hot summer days, you are vulnerable all year round, yes, even in the Winter!
