May 1st marks the beginning of National Skin Cancer Awareness Month. In an effort to help get you into sun protection mode, here are a couple of ideas:

Olay and The American Society for Dermatologic Surgery are offering free skin cancer screenings all over the nation. What’s even better… when you make an appointment, you may do so in tandem with a friend or relative and get screened together. The program is called www.SkinCancerTakesFriends.org. Visit their website to view a list of participating dermatologists. Take a few minutes to peruse the site as well, for valuable information on skin cancer awareness.

Once you’re given the all clear after your screening, it’s time to defy the sun and shine on, in spite of avoiding its direct rays.

To capture the look and radiance of the Hollywood stars who constantly appear as though they just got back from a Caribbean vacation, minus the sunburn, wrinkles or sunspots, try out their secret for yourself…

Stars such as Eva Longoria use SunFX’s Glow All Over skin care line.

SunFX products are all natural, and the range encompasses every process necessary to achieve a sun tan, without acquiring damage from the sun’s harmful rays.

SunFX Glow All Over Body Polish: Exfoliates and moisturizes to give the skin a smooth finish, which is the ideal base for spray-on

tanning.

SunFX Glow All Over Spray-On Tan: is a self-tanning system that is convenient enough for at home use and touch-ups.

SunFX Glow All Over Body Shimmer: heightens the look of your tan by further illuminating and moisturizing the skin.

SunFX Glow All Over Body Wash: contains Aloe, Chamomile and Vitamin E to cleanse and calm the skin.

SunFX Glow All Over Body Lotion: is a moisturizing lotion that uses almond oil, olive oil and shea butter. Used as a daily moisturizer, it helps extend your tan.

Make this May the month to pamper and protect your skin and to get enlightened on the effects of sun damage.
