National Stay Out of the Sun is today. So, this day is all about taking care of yourself and practicing safe sun. Indeed, everyone loves sunshine; however, the sun can cause skin cancer, sunburns, and melanoma.
National Stay out of the Sun Day History
Although there is no data on how this day started; it is all about staying out of the heat and giving our skin a break. However, there is some speculation this day was created on the day before a holiday to warn people about the overexposure to the sun.
Moreover, the key to this day is to spend a good percentage of the day inside. However, with so many people being cooped up indoors due to COVID-19; the majority of people are going to be outdoors. So, if you’re outside; make sure you practice safe sun. To read more, be sure to visit my Best Sun Protection Skin Products post.
Tips on How to Stay out of the Sun
Of course, everyone needs some sun exposure for healthy skin and for Vitamin D.
Meanwhile, it is essential that you apply a good amount of sunscreen to your skin every 2 – 3 hours. And, if you’re in the ocean, pool, or sweating; you should reapply sunscreen lotion more frequently.
With this in mind, one of the best suntan lotions to use for your skin is by Neutrogena. Before you head out into the sun; apply your sunscreen. Furthermore, this broad-spectrum SPF 45 sunscreen absorbs quickly and this lotion will protect you from the harmful UVA and UVB rays.

Another tip I have is to find a shady spot with a hammock, take a good book with you, and a cocktail. Kick back and relax. Listen to the sounds of nature and take a catnap.
If you’re on a beach, bring an umbrella and wear a floppy hat. Also, make sure you cover yourself regularly with sunscreen. To read more on some products that are ideal for the beach; be sure to visit my Skin Cancer Awareness Month post.
