Nice skin!
I’m fortunate enough to live within 10 minutes of some pretty awesome beaches on Australia’s Sunshine Coast. I just wanted to mention that while beaches are a haven for tanned, toned bodies, they also are a harem for old wrinkly chicken-skin lookalikes for those who have lived here for many years; a tribute to sun exposure gone wrong!
Anyway, according to the Australian Government, Queensland has the highest rate of malignant melanoma and non-melanocytic cancer in the world! This means we have to take a bit of extra care when it comes to sun exposure and skin care. For people who live in Australia, and Queensland in particular, it’s really important to follow some basic principles of sun care: frequent use of sun tan lotion when you’re exposed to the sun for longer than 15 minutes (particularly in the ‘heat of the day’ 11-2 period), also wearing a t-shirt and hat to help minimise exposure.
The world of skin care and skin care products is also a massive industry, and I’m sure there are now hundreds of different products etc on the market, most of which I personally have had little personal experience with…
Moral of the story is: Look After Your Skin! Don’t end up a chicken-wrinkly!
