Summer is well underway, meaning that not only are the days getting longer, but they’re also getting much warmer. With temperatures reaching the high 30s— if not higher— sunscreen and UV-protecting creams can only do so much against the scorching heat. So you know what that means: staying indoors until outside cools down becomes the most reasonable option.
