To the best of your ability, limit your exposure to the sun between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. On days when the sun blazes, arm yourself with sunglasses that block UVA and UVB radiation. For safety, always use sunscreen with a 30 SPF rating or higher. It not only protects from sunburn but also from the adverse effects of Sun's radiation.
