Don't Forget to Protect Your Skin During a Mid-Winter Vacation

I recently went to Hawaii for a mid-winter reprieve. Of course lots of other folks have the same idea. And with the weird and extreme weather everybody seems to be experiencing, places like Hawaii are even more appealing. The thing that continues to surprise me though is how many people allow themselves to get serious sunburns. I couldn't believe how many bright red bodies I saw on the beach and running around the hotel.

Everybody should know by now how damaging the sun is to the skin. I do realize people want to go home from vacation, well, looking like they have been on vacation. Wearing sunscreen doesn't mean you won't get a tan. However, it will protect your skin, especially when your body hasn't been exposed to the sun's rays in many months. So when you go on your sunny vacation, no matter what time of year, please take a sunscreen. See my Top 6 Sunscreens and Sunblocks for Men.
