If you’re planning a spring getaway, you may be tempted to get a base tan before you leave. Tanning in a tanning bed won’t prevent sunburn. Time spent in a tanning bed will increase your risk of developing skin cancer. To keep your skin looking and feeling its best, use a daily sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher and don’t forget to reapply, especially if you’re in direct sunlight!
