Summer, Beach, sol, hot… This may be the most desired combination this time of year, but it can become a nightmare if not adopted some care.

In the summer, the sun's rays have a greater impact on the earth and exposure to them is usually higher, often without adequate protection. This behavior causes sunburn, inflammations that are in the form of red spots or blisters, varying according to the severity of injury.

Burns can cause reddening, pain, burning, burning, swelling and blisters. Long-term, prolonged exposure to the sun and ultraviolet rays increases the risk for melanoma appearance (skin cancer), and accelerate aging, when there are wrinkles and blemishes.

To prevent skin damage, sunscreen should be done daily, with at least factor filters 30, and factor 60 or greater in the days of increased exposure. This protection can be supplemented with the use of hats, caps, etc. Avoid critical times (between 10h and 16h) and stay in the shade, when possible.

The care after the burns begin with to avoid the sun until the skin recovers completely, and invest in hydration. Fluid intake should be increased to prevent dehydration and heat stroke.

It is recommended the use of moisturizing creams and natural calming, as: Aloe Vera and Chamomile, to prevent peeling of the skin. The bath should be with warm water and do not rub the skin, avoiding the use of soap and towel drying time.
