The top of your feet

While many of us believe we didn’t miss a spot on our skin when using sunscreen, we often forget about the feet. And it’s unfortunate because the skin on our feet is highly susceptible to melanoma and other horrible forms of skin cancer. This happens particularly when we’re wearing any type of sandals and we forget about our feet.

Even so, doctors recommend we use SPF with 30 + protection when applying sunscreen on our feet, and make sure we don’t miss any spot. So next time you’re going to the beach or a walk in the park, make sure to layer some sunscreen onto the soles of your feet.
