- Wear Sunscreens: If you are travelling during day time or headed for a beach holiday don’t forget to carry your Favourite Sunscreen / Sunblock along with you. It is advised to pick a minimum of SPF 50 to help your skin protect from sun damage. You can go for a Sunscreen mist like Neutrogena Body Mist Spray SPF 30 Sunscreen as it is easy to apply.
