It’s no secret that sun exposure can spell trouble for our skin, linking directly to skin cancer and speeding up the ageing process. Yet, in sunny Singapore, staying indoors just isn’t an option. Thankfully, we’re not helpless in the face of the sun’s rays. With a blend of technology and savvy, we can shield our skin effectively and enjoy the outdoors without worry.

KNOW THY ENEMY

Ever glanced at your weather app to check the rain but ignored the UV index? It’s time to start paying attention. Apple’s Weather App offers a clear UV index reading that can guide your sun protection choices throughout the day. Knowing when the UV rays are at their fiercest helps you decide when to seek shade or reapply sunscreen.
