Welcome to summer sun school!
First up, Science lesson (it's interesting, honestly!)
The sun gives off energy in the form of radiation. Ultraviolet radiation (UVR) is made of UVA and UVB wavelengths/rays. The amount of energy in a UVB light is the same amount required to mutate certain proteins in our DNA. When UVB rays hit our cells, the reaction can cause damage. Also the case for UVA.
Simply put:
UVB makes your skin burn.
UVA makes it age.
Sunscreens protect your skin from these rays.
