If you are a guy and are looking forward to have a great bronzed body to woo the chicks at the beach, you are in for a surprise. You cannot get that perfect bronzed look by just lying down on the beach or by the pool. You will have to work loads to get that perfect sun tan that makes people drool over your bronzed body. Before you decide to burn yourself under the sun hoping to look hot, you need to know that UVB rays from the Sun can wreak havoc on collagen, cause pre-mature ageing and also cause skin cancer. So, how does one get that perfect bronzed look without having to think about an Oncologist? Read on.

• Though this is something that you have always been told, you perhaps never tried to apply sunscreen all over your body evenly.
• It is not just your face that requires the sunscreen, but also your back, your legs, abs depending on how much skin you are going to expose.
• Make sure you do not stay in the sun for more than two hours and if you do so, apply sun tan lotion continuously every ten to fifteen minutes. This would help you to protect your exposed body areas from the dangerous UV rays, and minimize the risks of skin cancer. Moreover, at the end of the day, you would be left with a golden tan and not a bad skin burn.

• You would also need to consider a sunscreen which has moisturizers, Vitamin E and Vitamin A which are good for your skin and its elasticity.
• If you thought you could just go to a store and pick up a sunscreen that has the highest SPF, you could be quite wrong.What is more important is that your sunscreen has moisturisers and added vitamins as well.
• Apart from using the right sunscreen and not staying for a really long time under the sun, you would also need to eat right, exercise right and drink loads of water.

Now that you have protected yourself from the harsh rays of  the Sun, nothing can stop you from having a great looking body that people would die to have. Trust me, there is nothing unmanly about rubbing sunscreen lotion when you are trying to get a tan! If your friends make nasty comments, you could remind them about skin cancers!
