☀️Even though Alaska isn’t scorching, our long summer days mean more UV exposure - sometimes 20+ hours of sunlight! Here’s how to keep your skin safe this July:
🧴Sunscreen is a must: Use SPF 30+ daily, even on cloudy days—UV rays don’t take breaks.
😎Wear protective gear: Sunglasses, wide-brimmed hats, and UV-blocking clothing are your friends.
⛱Seek shade: Take breaks from that glorious Alaskan sunshine when you can.
Let’s enjoy our endless summer days safely!
