We all now the harmful effects that the sun’s UV rays can have; and we all still love to sunbathe when we get the chance. But how many of us apply the correct SPF factor sun cream or monitor our UV exposure.

It will also recommend the amount of time you should spend in the sun and will alert you when it’s time to hit the shade.
