The ultraviolet (UV) rays of the sun are definitely detrimental to the skin and exposure can damage your skin (not to mention your eyes), very possibly leading to the proliferance of the very free radicals that lead to skin cancer. But you can still get a suntan using tanning products (SPF [sun protection factor]15 or higher), or just by wearing a hat and a long-sleeved shirt with long-sleeved pants. sunburn the tops of your feet just once(!) and see how wary you become.

Remember(!) Slip, slap, and slop.

Slip on a shirt.

Slap on a hat.

Slop on the lotion (this is no timeto be moderate!).

How does sunbathing affect you?

Today sunbathing hurts your skin because more UVA rays get to the earth, so to lay out and get a tan exposes your skin to the bad sunrays. This ages your skin and eventually will lead to damage. The damage, as you age, may become skin cancer. If skin cancer is not handled and removed it can kill you. This cancer type starts as a surface cancer and if it stays goes into the body to become melanoma. That's when it kills you.
