Yay, know I'm actually doing something nice here....
Why is this nice?



It's of the, probably 40 year old, lady who suns all day everyday and who's skin looks like old and worn leather.

I see these types in the store everyday and it disgusts me!  Do they really know what they've done to their skin?
It will never be the same...even if they stop tanning the damage is done and it can't be undone!
Prematurely aged...the photo lady is probably like 40 and she looks 65! At Least!

Moral here:
Don't over tan!
Some sun is good for the skin...constantly tanning ages the skin and makes you more prone to skin cancer.

Other Fun Facts:
SPF is ALWAYS important
your are allowed 4 sun burns in you life
Each sunburn increases your chances of cancer (a serious one can increase risk as much as 50%)
tanning beds are just as bad as natural sun  (its a concentrated form of UV light)

MORE than 1 million cases of skin cancer get diagnosed annually
So about 1 outta 7 people in the United States will develop some form of skin cancer during their lifetime.

...okay that's all for now, maybe more laters

Sweet Dreams All *smooch*
