Another area of the body that's prone to sunscreen but often gets overlooked is our scalp. And think about it — it's just a sitting duck for the sun's harmful rays.

"The scalp is as susceptible to sun damage as the rest of your skin, and because it's covered by your hair, you're less likely to notice any suspicious moles," recommends Dr. Sobel. "If you part your hair or you're wearing any hair style that exposes your scalp, use a spray sunscreen to protect your scalp." You can also wear hats (UPF hats are ideal for extended outdoor exposure), use a sun umbrella, and try to spend as much time in the shade as possible.
