Whether you’re going abroad this year, or sunning yourself at home, there’s a need for sun protection and covering your skin in the sun. In Northern Ireland and across the UK and Ireland, the incidence of skin cancer continues to rise. Skin damage caused by the sun is on the increase. The most worrying form of skin cancer is Malignant Melanoma due to its aggressive nature. The majority of incidents of skin cancer are caused by overexposure to UVA and UVB radiation – ultraviolet radiation from the sun. Ambre Solaire offers advanced sun protection from UVA and UVB radiation – see our Ambre Solaire range for more information. UVA radiation can cause long term skin damage, while UVB is responsible for burning your skin. Both UVA and UVB radiation can cause genetic damage to your skin cells, which can develop to skin cancer. It has never been more important to consider quality advanced sun protection – why not consider Ambre Solaire?
Ambre Solaire Sun Protection offers excellent protection from the sun and is available as both a spray and a lotion, and in a wide range of Sun Protection Factors (SPF), to suit your every sun care need. There is also an extensive Ambre Solaire range for children, featuring very high protection. Amber Solaire additionally cater for UV sensitive skin – advanced Sun Protection to suit every sun care need.
When in the sun, there are a number of steps that you can and should take to protect your skin, and prevent skin damage and signs of premature skin ageing. Sun Protection needn’t be tiresome or ruin your holiday! The most common sign of skin damage is sun burn – sun burn is a sign that the sun has caused damage to your skin due to over exposure. Even sun tan is a sign that damage has been caused to your skin! In addition to the unpleasant and irritating burning of your skin, when you sun burn your skin becomes damaged, increasing the risk of premature skin ageing and skin cancer. Ambre Solaire Sun Protection range of lotions and sprays is ideal for protecting your skin from damage in the sun.
To prevent sun burn and other forms of skin damage, and signs of premature skin ageing, you should always apply sun protection product – even if it’s cloudy, and even when at home in Britain or Ireland. Sun Protection doesn’t stop when you get off the plane – it begins at home! Click on the link to visit our Ambre Solaire Sun Protection section. You don’t need to be abroad for your skin to be damaged in the sun – sun burn can strike even at home! Some people are more susceptible to skin damage and sun burn than others – fair skinned persons, people with freckles or moles, and people who have a history of skin damage in their family are more at risk. However, everyone should take precautions when in the sun to prevent sun burn and skin damage.
When using a sun protection product (eg. Ambre Solaire), there is a wide range available. Products are available as sun lotions or sprays, and also as gels (see our Ambre Solaire Sun Protection range for more information). Sun protection lotions and sprays offer a wide variety of protection, depending on the Sun Protection Factor (SPF) of each product. The higher the SPF, the more protection you have from the sun. A Sun Protection Factor of 15 for example will offer 15 times more protection than unprotected skin against the sun. Gordons Chemists recommend that you use a minimum of SPF 15, and even higher when you are holidaying in places that are very hot, or if your skin is particularly sensitive to the sun. During the hottest part of the day (11am-3pm) you should spend at least some time in the shade, wear a hat and some protective clothing – perhaps a T-shirt – and apply your sun protection lotion or spray regularly. If you have children you should reapply their sun protection product frequently, ensure that they are wearing a hat and T-shirt, and that they spend some time in the shade. It will be the last thing they want to do, but protecting their skin in the sun is very important.
