SPF (Sun protection factor) measures protection from sunburn and other forms of skin damage caused mainly by UVB rays. It is a measurement of how long you can stay in the sun with sunscreen before getting burned from UV rays. Applying sunscreen with an SPF of 15, for example, means that it will take 15 times longer for your skin to begin to burn than it would without sunscreen. However, sunscreens should not be used to increase the time you spend in intense sunlight.
Apply sunscreen every day! (To help prevent skin cancer, apply generous amounts of SPF 30 (or higher) sunscreen for everyday protection. Reapply often during outdoor activities, especially after swimming, perspiring, or using a towel.)
Pick the right product. (Whether you're shopping or skiing, there's a sunscreen that's right for you. Look for cosmetics and moisturizers with sunscreen, as well.)
Going out? Cover up. (If you plan to be outside for an extended period, remember to wear protective clothing. Wide-brimmed hats, sunglasses, long sleeves, and long pants help shield your skin from sun damage.)
Be a shade seeker. (Try to avoid the sun during those hours when the sun's rays are the strongest--10am to 4pm.)
Need vitamin D? Don't seek the sun. (Although UV radiation is one source of vitamin D, UV exposure also increases the risk of skin cancer. Get vitamin D safely through a healthy diet of vitamin supplements.)
No tanning bed is 'safe'. (Tanning beds work by emitting UVA rays, which penetrate deep into the skin. Using tanning beds may increase the risk of some forms of skin cancer.)
Keep up with your checkups. (Check your skin monthly and be on the lookout for new skin spots or any changes in existing spots. See your dermatologist regularly for full-body skin examinations, as well.)
