Independence Day is a great time to get outside with your family and friends, but don't forget your sunscreen. Skin cancer is on the rise, but there are lots of ways to protect yourself and have fun in the sun!
- Wear FDA-approved sunscreens.
- Wear protective clothing and hats. No sunscreen is 100% effective, so double up on protection.
- Use umbrellas or find other shade.
- Wear sunglasses with a UV400 rating or “100% UV protection” on the label.
