Did You Know?

What you should know about the sun...

It causes 90% of all skin cancers:

Overcast days are not much safer than those that are sunny, as 70-80% of the sun's ultraviolet rays can get through the clouds.

The sun is about 80% stronger when reflected off sand and snow.

The sun's rays increase in intensity about 4% for every 1,000-foot rise in altitude.

It's better to play or engage in sports before 10 a.m. and after 4 p.m. If that's not possible, try to avoid being out at high noon.

The sun weakens the immune system, reducing your defense against infection.

In general, kids can get all the vitamin D they need for strong bones from fortified milk, salmon, vitamin supplements and/or brief, casual sun exposure.

A Note About Sun Screen
The single most effective thing you can do to prevent signs of aging on your skin is to protect it from the sun. EltaMD® offers the most comprehensive line of sunscreen products available with both UVA (aging rays) and UVB (burning rays) protection.


Elta sunscreen products made the "Ten Best" list (none of the popular store brands made the list) in extensive research by the watchdog organization Environmental Working Group. EltaMD®’s formulas are developed with the latest research knowledge in safety and effectiveness. They leave no residue on skin, and are effective for sensitive skin types. 

Sunscreens are available in SPF 30+, 40, 45, and 50, with special formulas for physical activity, for daily wear, and for wearing under makeup.
