Do all tanning products contain sunscreens?
No, some don’t. Tanning products that don’t contain sunscreen will be required by the FDA to carry a warning label alerting consumers to the dangers of unprotected sunbathing. What kind of sunglasses should be worn? Only those that provide 100% protection against UV radiation, as stated on the label at the time of purchase, should be worn. Is sunscreen protection necessary in the winter? Yes, UV radiation, though not as intense in the winter, still poses a threat, especially when rays reflect off snow. There is no safe time of year when it comes to UV radiation. Are a good sunscreen and sunglasses enough? No, they are only one part of a complete sun-protection program. An effective program also includes limiting sun exposure and wearing protective clothing.
