Sunscreen

Do you know what I mean? So it's all part of the bigger positive conversation about not exposing our skin.

People are wearing more SPF now than they used to.

So if we can change that attitude, and fake tan has a big part to it, because we don't really all want to look pasty.

Do you know what I mean? Natural skin is beautiful, but if you don't want it to look pasty, you can put on fake tan, but you don't expose yourself to the sun to actually burn to get it.

You've got to have comfortable walking shoes.

And then sunscreen.

Sunscreen is an absolute must.

I know JD was complaining.

Take a

and you won't have sunburn.

Oh, by the way, all the SPF lotions that you put on, from 10 to 100, read the ingredients labels on those.

Just Google a few of the first four ingredients in those labels.

That'll tell you what sort of toxins you're putting on your skin.

The highest cases of skin cancer are from in the very westernized world, United States, Canada, Northern Europe.

That's where the skin cancer is.

And you know what? That's also where they sell the toxic SPF lotions.

We used to slather our kids in all of that, and I feel

Everyone should be

using chapstick, especially with SPF.

That's

correct.

that way, you know, about exfoliation.

Sunscreen was not real popular in the 80s, but my dermatologist said, sunscreen, you need sunscreen.

And of course, as you can see, it's paid off over the years.

So that, I guess, curse became a blessing in many, many ways.

This is very common, right? Because in Newport Beach, people think, oh, plastic surgeon, and then they have it removed improperly this it was sutured beautifully but it's it's the cells have been left over and then i have to remove it and it's usually a much more extensive um procedure no knock on my surgery colleagues um it's that's just yeah yes

but it's it's important yeah for sure okay so taking it back a little bit, like talking about preventing, because obviously no one wants to have to deal with this, but what are the most important things we should be doing to avoid these skin cancer? Is it just SPF? Like what are other things we should consider? What's your, what's your spiel there?

SPF is like essentially the, you know, I think like mainstay right so like using spf in a common sense way um is is really the the answer i think the most important thing like if we can rewind for a sec is like for those of us who have kids that period of time before you you know in childhood up until like the age of like let's call it 20 is when most of your sun damage happens So like preventing burns and preventing overexposure to sun in that age group is what prevents skin cancer when you're 40 plus years old.

So like that's really the most important time.

Beyond that, using SPF as part of like a healthy approach to, you know, sun exposure and being outdoors and sort of your daily regimen will not only help like, you know, with future cumulative damage and skin cancer, but it's really like the mainstay from like, you know, an aesthetic point of view as far as like preventing wrinkles and sun damage and discoloration.

So SPF is the answer.

I think there's also like a lot of common sense stuff that we don't think about.

It's like throwing a hat on if you're, you know, if you're going to be watching your kids play soccer, you're going to be out, you know, in the sun for a long time.

And like, I've got, let's say

I'm just coming out from the gym, whatever, I've got SPF.

50 all over my face and neck I've

got clothes on yeah

I'll have it myself.

Coconut SPF, is it? SPF or whatever it is.

Yeah, lots of that, mate, lots of that.

Oh, so you were actually sun-maxing?
