Who doesn't like to bask in the Sun during the winter afternoons or frolic in the Sun in the beach holidays!We have a fair share of fun in the Sun but we cannot undermine the long-term harmful effects of the Sun on our skin.
The harmful rays of the Sun in the peak hours of the day (10 am to 3 pm), have deleterious effect on the skin. Right from skin dryness to premature ageing, the Sun does most of the damage to the skin. The UV -A rays cause skin ageing while UV-B rays cause sun burns.
Sun damage can range from minor skin reddening/tanning to premature wrinkles. The better prevention taken and the sooner the cure done, the skin revives back to its normal healthy condition.
Don't ditch broad brimmed hats and pure cotton stoles when out in the Sun. It blocks the Sun's rays from penetrating your skin. Avoiding going outdoors during the peak hours, acts as the first line of defense when it comes to preventing Sun damage.
When coming from Sun, it is advisable to rub an ice cube all over the face and apply pure Aloe Vera gel on the face for about 20 mins. It greatly soothes Sun burns.
Applying a face pack of chilled curd and lemon juice, deeply hydrates the skin and lightens Sun tan.
Applying a face pack of pure Sandalwood powder, lemon juice and rose water, thrice weekly, helps moisturize, soothe and brighten the skin.
Kiwi , Tomato and Almond paste on the skin repairs the Sun damage and gives way to healthier skin.
Green tea also greatly reduces inflammation and promotes healthy skin.
Smearing Vitamin E oil onto face before going to sleep, helps regenerate and heal the damage.
However, if the Sun damage is too severe and has occurred from over years of serious exposure to the Sun, prompt medical attention is required. Symptoms of Melasma and Skin Cancer often result due to severe Sun damage and should be exigent in their treatment.
Take these smart measures and may your skin brim like the Sun!
