How to get a nice tan and protect yourself against the sun at the same time

Here's what you should do if you want to get a wonderful tan and have a beautiful skin all year round:

• Before sunbathing, you should prepare your skin by exfoliating and hydrating it.

• Use a strong sun block, not just any sun block, but one designed for your particular skin type and color.

• When applying sun block, remember to use generous amounts of it all over.

• Reapply the sun block at least every two hours, or after going in the water.

• You should use sun block even if you’re already tanned, and on cloudy days.

• You should also avoid sunbathing when the sun is high in the sky, roughly between midday and four in the afternoon.

• After sunbathing, always use a good moisturizer.

• If at any point you see any marks or spots on your skin, monitor them, and consult your doctor if you notice any changes in their shape or color.
