This time of year many people are getting ready for their summer holidays and spending more time outdoors in the sun.

I live in the South East of England and even here the sun can be very strong in the summer months. Global warming is causing the ozone layer to become thinner.Between 1978 and 1985 the the level of ozone in the atmosphere dropped by 2.5%. Ozone offers protection from the sun's ultra violet rays.

Skin cancer is on the increase and is becoming a worrying health problem.Children are most vulnerable as their skin is thinner than an adults and their risk of getting sunburnt is much greater.

A lot of people still believe that a tan is a sign of good health and beauty. in fact it is a sign that the skin is damaged.

Most skin damage resulting in wrinkles is caused by exposure to the sun's UVA rays, and often most of the damage is done by the age of 21. This may not show up until later in life.

Sunbeds can be even more dangerous as they have mostly UVA rays which do the most damage. The sun has both UVA and UVB rays.

The best advice for a healthy, wrinkle free skin is to stay out of the sun completely, but that can be very difficult when you're on holiday.

Stay out of the sun during the hottest time of day when the sun is at it's strongest. That is between midday and about 4.00pm in the afternoon.

When you do go out in the sun make sure that you have a good high protection sun cream, and a wide brimmed hat as well as sunglasses with UVA protection. Apply sun cream 20-30 minutes before you go out.

Even when it's cloudy the sun's UV rays can still penetrate. They can penetrate in water as well, so if you go swimming make sure that you still put plenty of sun cream on.

When choosing a suncream check the ingredients. It's much better to choose one that contains both UVA and UVB protection,as well as natural ingredients and moisturisers.

There are many different sun creams on the market today but 90% of them contain OMC or octyl methoxycinnamate. This chemical is used to protect the skin against skin cancer, but according to tests carried out by scientists it could damage human cells if it gets into the blood stream.

Other chemicals often present in sun creams are mineral oil and PABA or benzophenone which may lead to skin and photo allergenic reactions.

Parabens are used widely in suncreams as a preservative. They are derived from plant extracts and petroleum. Sensitive skins may react to this.

However the importance of using sun cream is far greater than the risk from the chemicals in the cream.

A fake tan may be the safest option for that sun kissed look. Sunless tanning creams have come a long way in the past few years from the orange streaky effect that most of them gave.

Eating a diet rich in antioxidants can also help to protect the skin. Eat plenty of fruit and vegetables especially red and orange coloured, e.g red peppers, oranges, blueberries, butternut squash and carrots.
