Additionally, you should know the proper application of sunscreen to get the protection you need.

Here’s How to Apply the Sunscreen:

Of course, you should buy a sunscreen with broad-spectrum UVA and UVB protection. And don’t forget to check the expiration date of sunscreen while purchasing it either. Take an ounce of sunscreen out, or may be more that suits your need, and apply it to all exposed areas of scene about 30 Minutes before You Go Outside. Your ear, nose, finger and forehead the main parts you should apply it. But don’t use the sunscreen on your eyes and mouth.

Though many of sunscreens use ‘water-resistant’ label, but make sure you reapply it every time after you opt for bath. While you’re on beach and you take bath, clean up your body with a towel properly before you use sunscreen. It’s better if you use UV-protective sunglasses and lip balm to protect your eyes and lips. Hat and an umbrella can also conceal your body from harmful sun.
