Trips to warm places A blazing sun for a time on the skin can cause us serious burns and allergies.

It is vital to maintain a healthy skin, making clever use of the Sun, enjoying the less damaging hours, and avoiding their exposure in the most intense hours, i.e. from 11: 00 to 14: 00 hours.

Half an hour before exposure to the Sun, must apply us a protective lotion right, repeat the operation every two hours and always after wet us. Avoid perfumes, cosmetics etc, since they can cause spots on the skin. It is also recommended that if you are on any medication treatment, we suggest with our health care provider if it can have adverse outcomes sunbathing.

Experts recommend not to exceed the 15 minutes of exposure to reach places near the Tropic, and to increase this period in days.

These recommendations are equally important when visiting areas of snow, that the skin can suffer burns.
