Be Sun Smart – Slip, Slop, Slap, Wrap

  • Slip into a shirt
  • Slop on some sunscreen before going outdoors.
    • Put sunscreen on any skin not covered by clothes.
    • Choose a sunscreen that meets the Australian and New Zealand Standard AS/NZS2604.
    • Use an SPF30+ broad-spectrum sunscreen. Wipe it on thickly at least 15 minutes before going outdoors.
    • Reapply: do this 15 minutes after the first application to ensure complete coverage, and also after physical activity, swimming, surfing or towel drying.
    • Sunscreen should not be used as a means of staying out in the sun longer, but as a way to reduce the risk of sun damage to the skin when exposure to the summer sun is unavoidable.
  • Slap on a hat with a brim or a cap with flaps. More people get burned on the face and neck than any other part of the body, so a good hat is important.
  • Wrap on a pair of sunglasses. Choose close fitting wrap around glasses.
