Broad Spectrum Sunscreen

Use at least a teaspoon for the face and a shot glass worth for the body. Remember to reapply every 2 hours.

Seek Shade

Opt for shaded areas whenever possible, especially during peak sun hours.

Tomato Juice

Apply fresh tomato juice to a small test area first. If no irritation occurs, apply to sunburned areas for relief.
