Sun is the biggest threat to our skin. The ultraviolet radiation from the sun is causing the biggest damage to our skin. For this purpose, dermatologists recommend using sunblocks on your skin whether you are at home or outside. Our skin is a sensitive organ containing melanin on the outer epidermis layer which protects our skin from ultraviolet radiation. When A person's skin is exposed to sunlight quite often our skin produces more melanin and hence becomes dark. People with very sensitive skin and sun allergies have less melanin in their bodies so they need to protect themselves from direct sun. They can avoid the sun by wearing full clothes, applying sunblock and by avoiding the sun from 10 am-2 pm. Severe conditions can lead to skin cancer and skin cancer should not be taken lightly. One needs to check their skin more often to note any strange growths and desiccation.
