Protect Your Skin from the Sun: Tips and Tricks for a Safe Summer

Summer means sunshine, beaches and relaxing outdoors. However, it is essential to remember that sun exposure can have harmful effects on our skin.

At O'lysee, we offer you solutions to effectively protect your skin while enjoying the joys of summer.

Here are some tips to keep your skin healthy and understand why it is crucial to protect yourself from the sun.

Why the Sun Can Be Harmful to Your Skin

The sun emits ultraviolet (UV) rays that can damage the skin in several ways:

1. Sunburn: Excessive exposure to UV rays can cause skin burns, known as sunburn, which are painful and increase the risk of skin cancer.
2. Premature aging : UV rays accelerate the aging of the skin, causing wrinkles, dark spots and loss of elasticity.
3. Skin cancer : Prolonged, unprotected exposure to UV rays increases the risk of developing skin cancers, including melanoma, which is particularly dangerous.

Tips to Protect Your Skin

1. Use adequate sun protection

• Sun Mist SPF 50: Our sun mist is easy to apply and offers maximum UV protection. Apply generously to all exposed areas of your body, and reapply every two hours, especially after swimming or when sweating.
• Choose the right product: Make sure your sunscreen is broad spectrum, protecting against both UVA and UVB.

1. Avoid the hottest hours

• The sun's rays are strongest between 10am and 4pm. Try to stay in the shade or indoors during these hours to minimise exposure.

1. Wear protective clothing

• Wear covering clothing, wide-brimmed hats and sunglasses to protect sensitive areas such as the face, neck and eyes.

1. Moisturize your skin

• After a day in the sun, use hydrating products like our Water Mist to soothe and rehydrate your skin. Moisturizing helps repair sun damage and maintain healthy skin.

1. Examine your skin regularly

• Pay attention to any changes in your skin, such as new spots or changes in the size, shape or color of moles. See a dermatologist for regular checkups.
