But you also know that as kids get older, it can be a challenge to get them to stay still long enough to coat them with SPF. That\u2019s why it\u2019s important to teach them good sun care habits early. Even little kids know that it\u2019s important to brush their teeth twice daily and wash their hands frequently to help them stay healthy; educating your children that applying sunscreen serves the same purpose. Bonus: Coaching kids to apply SPF to themselves means you won\u2019t have to chase them down to do it yourself!<\/p>\n<h4>You should apply sunscreen every day, no matter what.<\/h4>\n<p>It\u2019s easy to think that applying SPF is only for trips to the beach, long days spent outside, or the summer season. But the truth is that sunscreen is necessary whenever the sun is out, even on cloudy days. The sun\u2019s rays are strong and can easily break through the clouds, even if you can\u2019t see them.<\/p>\n<h4>Sunglasses don\u2019t just look cool\u2014they\u2019re an essential part of sun care.<\/h4>\n<p>Whether you\u2019re doing your best rock star impression or keeping bright light out of your eyes, your sunglasses are hard at work. So long as they\u2019re labeled UV400, sunglasses are actually like sunscreen for your eyes, blocking the sun\u2019s rays to shield them from damage.<\/p>\n<h4>Whenever possible, stay in the shade.<\/h4>\n<p>The easiest way to protect your skin from the sun is to stay out of it! Do your best to seek out shade, especially during the sun\u2019s peak hours from about 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.<\/p>\n<h4>Sunscreen is a must, regardless of your skin tone.<\/h4>\n<p>It\u2019s a common belief that people with deeper complexions don\u2019t need to wear sunscreen and that only those with fairer skin do. That\u2019s not at all the case. All skin is susceptible to UV damage, so go ahead and slather yourself.<\/p>\n<h4>You don\u2019t just apply sunscreen once daily.<\/h4>\n<p>Sunscreen isn\u2019t a one-and-done thing\u2014you have to reapply it at least every two hours. If you\u2019re swimming or sweating, you should be applying even more frequently than that to make sure that your skin is fully protected.<\/p>\n<h4>If you have a sunburn, treat it right away.<\/h4>\n<p>A bad sunburn can be as harmful to the skin as a traditional burn, so you\u2019ll want to treat it ASAP. You can apply cool compresses to take as much heat out of your skin as you can, which will help reduce inflammation and discomfort, as well as drink plenty of water and moisturize frequently to prevent dehydration inside and out. Be sure not to pop any blisters or pick at peeling skin, which will likely only do more damage.<\/p>\n<h4>Sunscreen won\u2019t only protect your skin now\u2014it\u2019ll keep it healthy for years to come.<\/h4>\n<p>The pain of a sunburn goes away, but what you can\u2019t see is the sun damage left behind. Even small amounts of sun exposure damage the skin, which puts you at risk of developing skin cancer as you age. Applying SPF also will keep your skin looking fresh, healthy, and smooth\u2014sun damage makes you look older than you actually are.<\/p>\n<h2>Shop Sunscreens Your Kid Will Love<\/h2>\n<p>If your kid hates the sunscreen you\u2019ve handed them, they\u2019ll never apply it, and without applying SPF, they\u2019re putting their health at risk. By giving them formulas that smell good, feel good, and are easy to apply, they\u2019ll actually look forward to using sunscreen.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/brand\/sun-bum.html\">Sun Bum\u2019s<\/a> new collection for kids features three unique formulas\u2014<a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/products\/sun-bum-kids-spf-50-clear-sunscreen_297305.html\">Clear SPF 50 Sunscreen Lotion<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/products\/sun-bum-kids-spf-50-sunscreen-spray_297304.html\">Clear SPF 50 Sunscreen Spray<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/well.ca\/products\/sun-bum-kids-sunscreen-face-stick_297303.html\">Clear SPF 50 Sunscreen Face Stick<\/a>\u2014that can be applied to wet or dry skin, go on clear, and smell great thanks to natural fragrances.
