shot glass

A Shot Glass full of sunscreen is enough to cover the whole body. Sunscreen needs to be re-applied every couple of hours while outdoors, or when it is washed off. Most people do not apply enough sunscreen and as a result, they think that they are being safe in the sun, when they are not. Be sun smart! Practice sun avoidance, wear protective clothing, use Heliocare, and when you are out in the sun, apply a Shot Glass full of sunscreen to your entire body.
