Ultraviolet (UV) rays from sunlight are a major factor contributing to skin cancer over time.<\/p><h2><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\"><b>Effects of Sunlight on the Skin<\/b><\/span><\/h2><p class=\"translation-block\">Sunlight contains two main types of UV rays, UVA and UVB, which can penetrate the skin\u2019s layers, causing DNA changes and increasing the risk of skin cancer such as melanoma and squamous cell carcinoma.<\/p><h2><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\"><b>Tips to Protect Your Skin from Sunlight<\/b><\/span><\/h2><ol><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\" class=\"translation-block\">Use the Right Sunscreen : Choose a sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher that protects against both UVA and UVB rays. Apply sunscreen every 2 hours when outdoors.<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\" class=\"translation-block\">Wear Protective Clothing : Choose thick and dark-colored clothing, such as wide-brimmed hats, long sleeves, or UV-protective sunglasses.<\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\" class=\"translation-block\">Avoid Direct Sunlight Between 10 AM - 4 PM : UV rays are most intense during this time.
