SUNSCREEN MISTAKES

To get the most out of your SPF, avoid these common SUNSCREEN MISTAKES ☀️🕶️
 
❌ Don’t forget your BACKSIDE 🍑, especially if you’re in a thong bikini 👙; THOSE cheeks often sunburn faster than the cheeks on your face. 

✅ Remember to apply SPF to the BACK OF YOUR LEGS and NECK.  I’ve been seeing patients with BURNS in those places recently
 
❌ Do NOT do the RUB & PAT technique.  I mainly see guys do this — which is fine if you want to protect your palms and fingers, but not so good for the rest of your skin.
 
✅ Instead — as I demonstrate here with my DR JESSICA WU SUNCARE with Zinc  (Available at drjessicawu.com) apply a THIN, EVEN LAYER-- like frosting a cake 🍰 or painting a wall. This will give you the best protection.
 
✅ If you’re SWEATY or GOING IN THE WATER 🌊👙🏊‍♀️ look for the words WATER RESISTANT 80 MINUTES.  Otherwise it might just wash off.
 
❤️ ENJOY the outdoors, get some Vitamin D ☀️🕶️🏄🏼‍♀️ but please DON’T get Sunburned!
