Drink plenty of liquids
Water is best, Caffeine, sodas, alcohol and even energy drinks can promote dehydration. Liquids with electrolytes such as Gatorade can be used when exercising or exerting oneself.
Use a beach umbrella, shade trees, or other shade structure to minimize sun exposure. Any portion of the body which is exposed to the sun should be protected with sunscreen, reapply as per directions on the product, if swimming, reapply when exiting the pool. Water will wash away or diminish the effectiveness.
Use sunscreen as directed
Pay close attention to the ingredients for possible allergies, if the product does not specify it can be used on the face, do not apply it to the face, as the body heats up, the sunscreen can “melt” and “run.” If not approved for use on the face, it can cause severe irritation, burning and stinging if it gets in the eyes.
