Useful tips to protect skin from the sun

Experts say that sun and heat are normal natural things. Whether the sun is harsh or light, whether the season is cold or hot, the sun’s heat or ultraviolet rays are always harmful to the skin. So you have to protect yourself carefully. Sun protection is indeed for your every day life.

Sun’s effect on skin

1. Sweating in the hot sun can cause itching.

2. Sun exposure can often cause fungal infections of the skin.

3. Eczema can occur on the skin if you do not take protection from the sun.

4. Sunlight increases the level of melanin (black pigment) in the skin and makes the skin color black.

What to do to avoid skin damage from sunburn

1. Sunscreen lotion should be applied on the skin 10-15 minutes before leaving the house during the day. Cosmetics, lotions, powders, lip balms, sprays, etc. with SPF or sun protection factor are now available in the market. Use these as needed.

2. Matte type sunscreen for oily skin and moisturizer rich sunscreen for dry skin should be used. And for normal or combination skin, ‘All Skin Type’ sunscreen can be used.

3. The skin should be kept cool and clean at all times. So you have to take a bath with cold water every day.

4. There is no substitute for water to maintain skin moisture. Drink half a glass of three-four liters of water a day. In addition, drinking any fruit juice is also beneficial.

5. The use of cosmetics to protect from the sun and even the use of natural ingredients to relieve sunburn can damage the skin. If you have such a problem, you need to seek medical help immediately.

What to do before going out in the sun

It is better to take a bath before leaving the house. Since there is a lot of sweat at this time, it is normal to have bad smell from sweat. For this, if you take a bath by mixing a few drops of benzene essential oil in water, you will not have bad smell of sweat and your skin will not get dark in the sun. You will find this oil in medicine stores or supermarkets. After four hours, the skin should be wiped with a wet tissue rich in lavender oil.

To get rid of sunburn

Aloe vera paste is beneficial for any skin type. At night, yogurt, egg white and flour mixture can be used on the skin as a pack. After a while, wash and apply moisturizer. In addition, semolina can be used on the skin by mixing it with honey. It will also work as a scrub. A mixture of strawberries, pickles and flour is good for oily skin. And for dry skin can be used a mixture of milk cream, any nuts, honey and a little sugar.
