Being SunSmart: Protecting Yourself While Enjoying the Outdoors
As the days get warmer, you will probably be spending more time outdoors.
=================================================
In New Zealand, UV levels are high from September to April — even on cool or cloudy days. Too much UV exposure increases the risk of skin cancer, and the effects build up over time. Fortunately, staying safe is simple:
• Slip on clothing: Light, loose, long-sleeved tops and trousers keep you cool while protecting your skin.
• Slip into shade: Use natural or built shade like trees, gazebos, or buildings, especially during peak UV hours.
• Slop on sunscreen: Use broad-spectrum, water-resistant sunscreen with SPF30 or higher. Apply 20 minutes before going outside and reapply every two hours, or after swimming.
• Slap on a hat: Wear a wide-brimmed hat that shades your face, ears, and neck.
• Wrap on sunglasses: Not all sunglasses protect against UV radiation – always check the label for the sun protection rating or AS/NZ1067:2016 sunglasses Standard.
