TL;DR Summary

Dermatologists warn that commonly overlooked spots like the tops and back of the ears, lips, around the eyes, upper neck, chest, scalp, and hands need protection from the sun's harmful rays. Using an SPF-infused lip balm, eye cream, and wearing sunglasses with UV protection can help protect the delicate skin around the eyes and lips. Powder sunscreens can be used for the hair part, but wearing a hat is recommended for prolonged sun exposure. Sunscreen should be applied 10-15 minutes before sun exposure and reapplied every two to three hours, especially when swimming or sweating.
