Sunshine and Sunscreen

We have two types of UV rays that cause damage to our skin UVB and UVA. Certain sunscreens will protect your skin more than others. Physical blockers will block more harmful rays than chemical blockers. The two most important ingredients are Zinc and Titanium Dioxide. I recommend when picking up your sunscreen for the year to always flip the bottle over and read the active ingredients.
