Quick Post about Sunscreen!

This is my beautiful Great Niece Amelie. She will be turning 3 this October. What a beauty eh? Aside from just wanting to post a beautiful picture of her I want to remind you all the importance of a good Natural based Sunscreen. See that lovely skin?? We all had it when we were younger,although its hard for me to imagine ever having such a creamy porcelain complection as little Ame has.
As you can see she is protecting her eyes from the sun and I am sure her ever diligent mother is protecting her precious skin.
The sun..as great as it is for our health,it is so damaging to our skin over time. Now I am not opposed to a light healthy tan,we all need the health of being outdoors . The problem comes in when we get sun BURN and repeated long term exposure. Sun damage accumulates over years of abuse. The cells can become abnormal,resulting in cancer,brown spots,red blotches,ect.
So keep this in mind,not only in summer but all year. Find a good natural sunscreen,eat your anti-oxidants and enjoy the outdoors!! Wear a hat! And do not forget your ears when applying sunscreen. Most men don't even think of that.
I leave you with a Joke from Amelie,
Why did the chicken cross the road? his car must have broke down.. :-) ..shes three and just getting the hang of this joke thing.

  1. oh oh and put sunscreen in the part of your hair... most women don't want to get sunscreen in their hair but you get one good burn on your scalp and you'll realize the flaky red skin afterwards looks a whole lot worse than some greasy hair for a day!
