Taking Care of Your Skin in the Summer
July 23rd, 2010 by Tom Cobb
Summer time mean more of a risk for sunburn. Even if you use sunscreen you can burn and it can be very uncomfortable and dangerous. To start never use soothing cream as it can trap the heat and you can suffer even more. Cool it down with ice or a cold towel first or get into a cold bath. Aloe vera is key for using as an after sun saver, you can find pure aloe almost anywhere. If you are having a lot of pain or a headache, take ibuprofen to treat the pain. Don’t forget about your lips! Sally Hanson has a sun lip moisturizer that works very well to save your lips from getting burned. In order to treat years of sun exposure find moisturizers that don’t have water as their main ingredient as it will do the opposite of moisturizing. Be sure to take care in the sun, wearing a sun hat and using sunscreen and applying it often. It’s ok to get some sun but burning is not a good idea.
