Over 65's - Avoid Sunburn AbroadSo you’ve booked a trip to sunnier climes, but don’t let your holiday be ruined by sunburn. If you are going to a warm, sunny location (and this includes skiing holidays – which Essential Travel will insure over 65's for up to the age of 68) over exposure to the sun can pose a major threat to health both in the short and long term. If you do burn even mildly, the pain caused can ruin a few days of your holiday and burning also carries the potential long-term threat of skin cancer.Senior Citizen Sunburn TipsIn order to enjoy the sun whilst keeping healthy Essential Travel has the following guidelines for the over 65's: Use a sun protection cream or lotion that blocks out both UVA and UVB rays.Opt for a sun cream with a high SPF (Sun Protection Factor). Reapply your sunscreen frequently – and always reapply after a swim, even if you’re using a waterproof product. Avoid the midday sun, as this is when it’s at its most harmful. Whenever possible keep your skin covered with loose clothing, although you should note that you can still burn through your clothes. Protect your head with a sun hat or cap – especially if you have any bald spots.
