Health promotion bodies will continue to stress that the use of sunscreen is no substitute for other sensible and that sunscreens should always be used in conjunction with precautions including staying out of the sun during the hottest part of the day, wearing a wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses, and covering other exposed parts of the body when out in the sun.
