| I’ve lived in North Carolina all my life, so it’s safe to say I know a good bit about surviving the heat. But despite my firsthand experience, I still manage to get burned at least once a year. That is to say, there’s always more to learn, like from today’s story. If only I’d read this last summer! |
| There cannot be any truth in this, right? |

| Safety tips for vacationing in the sun |
| Peak vacation time is right around the corner — you may already be going on trips. If you’re planning on visiting an especially sunny locale in the near future (or if you just plan on being outside more as the weather warms up), our team has a few pieces of advice: |
| Apply sunscreen: “I burn very easily, so staying topped up with a suitable sunscreen is always at the front of my mind on vacation. I always opt for something water-resistant with an SPF 50 (anything lower, and I’ll probably start burning!). |
| “Remembering to top up regularly is my biggest issue, particularly after swimming, but I find that carrying handbag-sized bottles really helps. I like using a powder sunscreen for my scalp, too, to avoid any greasy feeling.” — Megan Lewis, editor I |
| Protect your eyes: “I wear a hat with a brim to keep the sun out of my face and eyes, and I top that look off with sunglasses. Eye protection is a must, too!” — Sarah Matysiak, associate editor |
| Keep electrolytes on hand: “Bright light can trigger migraine symptoms for me, so I make sure to have sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat. From a hydration standpoint, I always have packets of electrolyte drink mix with me.” — Naomi Wilde, editor II |
| Stay cool with hand fans: “Hand fans! They can recharge with a USB cord, which you’ll probably already have for your other electronics. Most hand fans are pretty compact and can fit in your pocket when you’re not using them. I feel the most overheated when the air isn’t moving, even if it’s not all that hot.” — Sarah Choi, associate editor |
