1. Seek Shade: Whenever possible, seek shade, especially during peak sunlight hours between 10 AM and 4 PM. Shade provides additional protection from direct UV rays. 2. Wear Protective Clothing: Opt for clothing that covers your arms, legs, and torso tightly woven fabrics offer the best protection. Dark colors and tightly woven fabrics offer better protection from UV rays than lighter colors and loosely woven fabrics. 3.

Additionally, wear sunglasses with UV protection to protect your eyes and the delicate skin around them from UV damage. 4. Limit Outdoor Activities: Try to schedule outdoor activities during the early morning or late afternoon when the sun’s rays are less intense. 5. Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated, especially when spending time outdoors in the sun. 6. Check UV Index: Check the UV index regularly.
