Sun & Holiday

Skin damage from sun exposure is exceedingly common, but can lead to some serious health conditions as well as causing premature aging.

UV rays from the sun can burn the skin - sunburn - which is a painful and common affliction in summer. While not serious by itself, sunburn can significantly increase your risk of skin cancer.

You don’t even have to get sunburn to be harmed by the sun. Even in the UK bright days can cause UV damage to your skin slowly increasing risks of skin cancer and causing the skin to take on a thick leathery look contributing to increased wrinkles and older appearance.

Suncream is the best defense for your skin, and at Rightdose we supply options designed for everyday use, as well as waterproof options for use at the beach. Lips can also be damaged by the sun so SPF lip balm is also a great choice if you’re going to be outside for long periods of time.

Whether you’re concerned about appearance or your long-term skin health, sun care items are a must have for sunny weather, and indeed some people suggest wearing suncream everyday of the year if you work outside.
