Suntan - More Than Just Change Of Skin Color
Getting a suntan or sunburn are two different things. As we all
know sunlight is very important part of our lives as it provides
Vitamin D to us. A normal tan if one get is fine as long as you
are not overexposed to sunlight causing your skin to burn. As
sunlight falls on you it helps in creation of melanin which

affects differently to the different skin types. They are
slotted into six categories which depend on the different skin
types.

never tans 2. Tanning is very little but can burn easily 3.
Tanning is gradual and burning is moderate 4. Easily tans with
less burns 5. Tans abundantly and very rarely burns 6. Least
sensitive with less burns and heavy tanning

your skin, so as to avoid the UV rays which can be very
cancerous. Rates of breast, prostrate and other cancerous
disease have increased mainly due to the UV rays. Whenever you
are out, try wearing a cap to avoid the rays.

stop using sunscreen as it is cloudy weather, use it all the
times.
