Now that summer is winding down, with the days growing shorter and many of our schedules getting crazier, it’s easy to forget to give the same attention to ourselves as we do when we are out in the sun. Summer is not the only time your body needs attention and protection from the elements though. Winter brings with it a whole different array of issues that we ladies should address. Here are some tips to remember before heading out on your next trip to the snow.

By the time summer roles around every year, we (as surfers) are generally so stoked to get some sun on our skin, some warm sand between our toes and a surf session SANS wetsuit, that we fail to remember the exact implications the sun can have on our bodies and skin, especially when we are pasty and white after a long winter indoors and under hoodies and wetsuits.
That initial summer sun burn though can be detrimental to your health, and can be the major cause of you forming skin cancer, which let’s be honest, is not all that cool. Hanging out in the sun for too long means that you get to much UV exposure, which causes DNA damage to your skin, which in turn, causes cancer.
