Moisturizers with Sunscreen
It's a Fact...
- 1.3 million new cases of skin cancer projected for the U.S. in 2001

- Long UVA produces free radicals that contribute to photo-aging and skin cancer.

- The vast majority of sun screens on the market DO NOT block long UVA

- Over one skin cancer death per hour in the U.S.

- Skin cancer kills more women in their late 20's and early 30's than breast cancer

- 33% of adolescents never use sunscreen
Formulated for daily care, Applied Therapeutics® moisturizers with sunscreen should be part of any sun smart, skin care regimen:
- Avoid direct exposure between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. and especially 11 a.m. - 1 p.m.

- Wear proper clothing: a broad-rimmed hat, tight knit shirt, sunglasses

- Use high SPF sunscreen:

- Put on before going outdoors

- Apply generously - one ounce per application for adults

- Re-apply every two hours or after swimming or excessive perspiration

- Be sure to cover nose, ears, shoulders, feet, and lips

- Use a sunscreen that blocks long UVA

- Remember that many surfaces like sand and snow reflect UV rays
and can shorten the period of time for developing a sunburn. Use a higher SPF level.
