Sometimes the spring or summer sun, under which we so willingly substitute our body, hungry for rest, can be very unkind to the skin. Dermatologists caution against excessive exposure to the sun, as this can reduce the amount of collagen and elastin in the skin, which will lead to wrinkles. There are three simple rules for protecting your skin on a hot day: avoid the sun during rush hours - from 10 am to 2 pm, wear a wide-brimmed hat that protects your face from sunlight and use sunscreen. Introducing you top 10 best sunscreensselected by reviews and recommendations from various cosmetic sites.
