Scientists have always doubted tanning beds and their dangers on us, so after conducting many studies, the Skin Cancer Foundation found out that one session can increase your risk of developing basal cell carcinoma by 29%, melanoma by 20%, and squamous cell carcinoma by 67%.
Protecting yourself with an SPF 35+ at the beach is like not wearing any protection. According to a new study published in the American of Academy of Dermatology Journal, the sunscreen that would be more effective is SPF 100+ and that’s it, especially during summer.
Also, re-applying is a lot more important. So when you shop for sunscreen, keep in mind to get the one with the higher strength.
