is the most common type of cancer — diagnosed
in over 3 million Americans each year
— and many cases happen as a result of the sun’s
ultraviolet (UV) rays. Prolonged exposure to UV
light can cause skin to age prematurely, resulting
in wrinkles, looseness and dark patches.

SKIN CANCER
SNa
sUnglAsses
Choose sunglasses that are
clearly labeled with UVA and
UVB protection, as darkness
and color of sunglasses do not
mean they protect against
ultraviolet rays.
SUNSCREEN
Use sunscreens that offer
broad spectrum protection —
against both ultraviolet A
(UVA) and ultraviolet B
(UVB) rays — and that have
a skin protection factor
(SPF) of 30 or higher. HATS
Choose a hat with tightly
woven fabric and a wide brim
(2 inches or more) all around
to shield your face and scalp.
SUN-SHIELDING
ACCESSORIES
Gloves, slip-on sleeves, scarves,
bandanas and umbrellas can
offer additional skin protection
from UV rays.
 To ensure complete 
coverage of your face and
body, use one ounce of 
sunscreen (two tablespoons 
worth) per application. 
For the face alone, 
use a nickel-sized amount.
 For spray sunscreens, 
apply until you see an 
even sheen all over your 
face and body.
Reapply sunscreen 
at least every two hours, 
and more frequently after 
water exposure, heavy 
sweating or toweling off.
