At the beach, at the swimming pool… sunbathing in the sun is one of the favorite activities of French people on vacation. 87% think a melatonin bath is a great way to relax, according to a recent study by Hotels.com
But exposing yourself to the hydrogen star is not without risk. High doses of the sun are not good for the skin. It causes, according to Medisite, “premature aging of cells with the appearance of dark spots or wrinkles for example, or worse, cause the formation of diseases such as skin cancer.”
The solution, to tan safely, is to protect yourself well. And for this purpose, nothing better than a good layer of sunscreen 30 or 5 0, to block UV rays and avoid, in passing, painful sunburn.
When you cream yourself, it is essential not to forget certain areas, which too often go by the wayside but are just as at risk of developing diseases:
And… the back! To spread sunscreen on this hard-to-reach part, get into the habit of asking your deckchair neighbor. But if you are alone, or too shy, there is an unstoppable trick to apply yourself, and it is Current Woman who tells us about it.
You must first opt for a sun mist, which spreads less perilously than thicker creams.
Then apply a generous line of cream on your forearm and the back of your hand, specifies the site.
Then, bend your elbows and rest your two forearms on your back, spreading the product back and forth.
“For the upper back, use the back of your hand to evenly distribute the cream,” adds Femme Actuelle.
You are now ready for any eventuality to tan safely this summer.
