Choose the right sunscreen: Look for a broad-spectrum sunscreen, which will block both UVA and UVB rays, with an SPF of at least 30. Pick Neutrogena SPF 50, or Lotus.

Maximize coverage: Sunscreen must cover your entire body. Don’t be lazy while application make sure you cover your entire body.  Some often-overlooked areas: the tops of the ears, underarms, between toes.

 Reapply: Reapply is the key. Apply sunscreen every two hours and whenever you get out from water.

Wear glares: Harmful rays can damage your eyesight, so wear sunglasses. Use quality lenses that protect against UVA and UVB rays.

Treat sunburns immediately: If the skin is peeling, moisturize. For immediate pain relief, take an anti-inflammatory medication. Aloe-vera works really well or use a soothing gel.
