When do you put sunscreen on before going outside?

About 15 minutes before sun exposure.

  1. After you feel hot
  2. About 15 minutes before ✔
  3. Only if you already burned

Why: FDA says apply 15 minutes before sun exposure so the sunscreen has time to work. Waiting until you are pink is too late.

Huh, didn't know that: An average person needs about one ounce, a shot glass, to cover the body.
