Some practical advice for us to remember as we experience a heat-wave
There’s no safe or healthy way to get a tan.
If you plan to be out in the sun long enough to risk burning, sunscreen should be applied twice:
☀️ 30 minutes before going out
☀️Just before going out
More advice here: nhs.uk/Heatwave
ALT A female with sunburn on her back. The words on their back read "It's ok, I wanted a tan anyway." Other words read "There's no safe or healthy way to get a tan. Protect yourself from the sun." The NHS logo features in the top right of the image.
