Wear Protective Clothing

Cover up with clothing, hats, and sunglasses to protect your skin from direct sun exposure.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated and help prevent sun damage.

Avoid Tanning Beds

Tanning beds can also cause sunburn and increase your risk of skin cancer.
