You should apply sunscreen to dry skin approximately 15 – 30 minutes prior to going outside. When you apply sunscreen, pay meticulous attention to the ears, face, arms and hands, and put plenty on and don’t forget about your lips, use a lip-balm or gloss which has sunscreen in it, the recommended SPF is 15 upwards. You should apply sunscreen approximately every two hours. However, if you are swimming or you sweat a lot, you should apply it more regularly. Even sunscreen that says it is water proof loses its efficiency when it is exposed to water so you must keep re-applying.
