Did you know that children and adolescents are particularly vulnerable to the harmful effects of UV radiation?
Excessive sun exposure in children is likely to contribute to skin cancer later in life. Did you know that one bad blistering sunburn in childhood or adolescence can actually double the chance of developing melanoma later in life? Scary.
The mechanisms are not totally clear, but some think that the skin is more susceptible to the harmful effects of UV radiation during childhood. That’s why I am taking NO chances with my children, especially since melanoma runs in my family.
And when choosing a sunscreen for my kids (and myself), opting for one that is chemical-free is really important, which is why I am very happy to share Patrick’s Sunscreen with you.
