Hey, I'm Dr. Gervaise Gerstnera Dermatologist here in NYC

and i'm here today to teach you about sunscreen 'cause this month it skin

cancer awareness month

and there's some new guidelines out by the FDA so I'm going to make it easy for you and

explain what these new guidelines mean and what to look for when you're

shopping for a sunscreen

The new guidelines say that sunscreen can no longer be greater than SPF 50

so SPF 50 is what you're looking for when you go to the drugstore

no longer sixty or a hundred

also you're looking for the words broad-spectrum

broad-spectrum means that the sun screen has UVA and and UVB coverage so

this protects from sunburn as well as from aging but most importantly from

skin cancer. So broad spectrum is what you're looking for.

The other thing you're looking for is water-resistant the word

water-resistant no longer can a sunscreen call itself waterproof or

sweat proof they can call it water-resistant.

These are the new guidelines so when you're shopping for sunscreen find one

that you like, consistency is good that you want to use, because then you will

use it and you will reapply.

Personally, I like the L'oreal Paris the Sublime sun collection because it's

elegant sheer it's soft on the skin I love it and my kids love it which is

the most important thing for me because of my kids like then they'll use it.

They personally like the mist there's a sprain mist they like it because

they can spray it on their scalp and spray it on their body.

So the guidelines go in effect this summer so this is what to look for when

you go the drugstore, there are also some tips on how to use the sunscreen

you definitely want to use enough sunscreen about a shot glass full of

sunscreen is what you need to apply every day when you're out in the sun you

also need to reapply. You need to reapply it every couple hours. Now you can even set a

timer or set a reminder on your iphone to remind you to re-apply the

sunscreen.

You need to reapply. Also another tip that my family uses, I put a dollop

of sunscreen on my makeup brush and i apply the same thing on my face with the

makeup brush and the kids like to do that as well.

So these new guidelines come in effect this summer so take a look and buy a

sunscreen that you like that you will use. There's information on the facts of

skin cancer on the skin cancer foundation website as well as on l'oreal

paris use.com
