The effects of summer and the sun on your skin

Summer has arrived, and with it, days at the beach and pool, a lot of outdoor activities and above all, plenty of sun!

The sun has many beneficial properties for both our body and our mind, and summer is a great time to take advantage of them. Did you know that exposing yourself to the sun as little as 5 to 10 minutes daily, can strengthen your bones and your teeth, as the UV rays help produce vitamin D? It also helps to stimulate the immune system. And as if this wouldn’t already be enough, soaking in sunlight also helps you be in a good mood, making it easier to focus on the positive side of life and even improve depression. And of course, lets’ not forget that being tanned boosts our self-esteem!

Too much sun, however, can be aggressive on our skin and can lead to serious damages. If we do not take the appropriate measures such as using sunscreen and a restorative hydration afterward, we can suffer from serious sequels such as sunburns, premature aging of the skin and even cancer. That is why it is essential not only to protect your skin before and during, but also after sunbathing, always applying high-quality products.

Today at APoEM we would like to present you our best products so that this summer you will not only have an amazing smile on your face, but also radiant and healthy skin.
