Sunscreen is a great ally to fight once morest the harmful effects of the sun on our skin, yet many of us make this mistake when it comes to using this sun protection solution. A bad habit that should not be followed because it is very dangerous for the skin.
Summer is for many a good time for swimming and a good tanning session. Whether around a swimming pool, on the edge of a mountain lake or on a fine sandy beach, many holidaymakers love to bask in the sun before returning to the office with a tanned complexion. Returning tanned from vacation does not mean taking reckless risks by exposing yourself to the sun’s rays without any precautions.
Indeed, the ravages of ultraviolet (UV) rays on the body are now well known to many. While some ignore health recommendations by applying beer as a self-tanner to the skin, for example, others have fortunately adopted the reflex of using sunscreen before each exposure. A good habit that does not protect sunscreen users from all risks. In effect, there are several mistakes to avoid when it comes to applying sunscreen to your body.

Store sunscreen in the shade
Although sunscreen is a solution to protect the skin once morest the ravages of the sun, this does not mean that it can be left exposed in direct sunlight. Quite the contrary. Like most lotions and other cosmetic products, sunscreen does not like light or heat. A common mistake is to apply the product to the skin and then leave the bottle or tube to brown in the sun. A practice that should be avoided as much as possible, even for the duration of a short refreshing swim. You should store your sunscreen in a bag in the shade at least, and in the best case, in a cooler so that it is not exposed to too high temperatures.
To avoid overheating, it is therefore better not to leave your solar protection in a vehicle parked in a car park in direct sunlight. Indeed, prolonged exposure to the sun can deteriorate the formula of your sunscreen and therefore limit its effectiveness.

Like most of your cosmetic products, your sunscreen should therefore be stored in a cool, dry environment. This will allow in particular to preserve the properties of the formula, and therefore to maintain its protective action on the skin. “While sunscreens are designed by the cosmetics industry to resist as much as possible, they are not invincible in any event”warn the laboratories Vichy.
