== == Wear sun screen: SPF 15 or higher. Wearing hats and long-sleeves also helps. You can't go back and change the fact that you didn't wear sunscreen as a kid, but you can prevent making it worse. You can also limit the time you spend in the sun and to keep applying the sun-screen every hour.
Staying out of the sun or using sun block
