| 1 | Sunscreen products are the cosmetic products extensively used by consumers to help prevent sunburn, and certain sunscreens also help reduce the risk of skin cancer and premature skin aging caused by the sun. When sunscreens first came on the market, they were used only occasionally at the beach and often as tanning aids. Now a days, people of all ages, ethnicities, and complexions are encouraged to use sunscreens liberally and reapply frequently whenever they are out in the sun and in conjunction with other sun-protective measures like seeking shade at peak hours and wearing protective clothing, hats, and sunglasses. | |
