2 Sunscreen should be applied heavily in the early morning, then reapplied in the early afternoon on days of outdoor activity. More frequent application may be necessary if sweating, rubbing, or swimming is removing the sunscreen. At least daily application is recommended for 3 seasons of the year. For individuals living in the southern United States, this should be done year round.
3 Heavy make-up (preferably with some sunscreen in the formulation) in conjunction with a hat and protective clothing may be sufficient for women.
4 The face, shoulders, and bald spots are at greatest risk for actinic damage by virtue of geometry and lifetime exposures.
