This document provides tips for caring for skin during and after cancer treatment. It was created by Precious Jason, who started an organic skincare line after experiencing compromised skin from leukemia treatment. The tips include drinking plenty of water, as treatment toxins need to be ridded and cells hydrated, with women drinking 1.6 liters and men 2 liters per day. It also recommends protecting skin from the sun by wearing a hat, using sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher, and reapplying generously to block 96% of harmful rays.

4. It sounds so simple because it is simple.
Your body needs to rid itself from the
toxins of treatment and keep your cells
hydrated. The European Food Safety
Authority recommends that women
should drink about 1.6 litres of fluid and
men should drink about 2.0 litres of fluid
per day. That’s about eight glasses of
200ml each for a woman, and 10 glass-
es of 200ml each for a man. If you don’t
like the taste of plain water, try sparkling
water or add a slice of lemon or lime.

5. Avoid staying in the sun, wear a
hat. Most anti-cancer medica-
tions and radiation therapy
increase your sensitivity to the
sun.
Use sun cream. The sun protec-
tion factor (SPF) shows how
much protection the sunscreen
gives against UVB radiation – as
long as you put enough on. I use
an SPF 30 and apply generously
to protect my skin
