It has long been known that ultra violet rays from the sun can cause an adverse effect on the skin and can cause skin cancer. Solar rays are one of the most powerful factors of skin aging. Solar rays or ultra violet rays can damage skin proteins: elastane and collagen, which maintain the form of skin cells. This process can result in premature wrinkles, the appearance of pigment spots and loss of skin elasticity. Therefore, to reduce the impact of sunlight on your skin, regularly use special protection and cosmetic sunscreen.
     When being exposed to the sun, one must be very careful and make sure to be protected. Otherwise, the skin cells may lose the ability to reproduce after prolonged exposure to ultraviolet rays. Ultraviolet rays are dangerous. They have the ability to accumulate in the skin. If you want to keep your skin healthy, before tanning, you must use protective tanning products. To protect the skin from ultraviolet light, sunscreens are essential. You should also be aware that sunscreen becomes effective 5-10 minutes after applying it, so leaving the house at the right moment is important.
     Wouldn’t you know that it was Coco CHANEL herself who launched the sunbathing craze in the 1920s. She returned from a cruise with a deep dark tan, and turned the tan into the fashion "must have" for the decade. Of course, by now we all know what kind of damage the sun can do to our skin, including early aging, not to mention skin cancer.
     Those of you who avoided exposing your skin to the wrath of the sun will have significantly different-looking skin than those who baked their faces. The sun is just one factor that must be considered when you analyze your face and skin.
     You can reverse the damage to your skin caused by overexposure to the sun. Staying out of the sun and wearing sunscreen when you are outdoors will allow your body time to rejuvenate and increase its collagen level, which makes skin suppler. You won’t turn back the hands of time, but you will have healthier looking skin.
