Take Action!
Take steps to prevent skin cancer.
Stay out of the sun between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m.
The sun’s rays are the strongest in the middle of the day. Try to stay in the shade during these hours.
Use sunscreen with SPF 15 or higher.
Be sure to use enough sunscreen (a handful) and put it on again every few hours and after swimming or sweating. Put the sunscreen on 20 minutes before you go outside.
