Many Australians apply too little sunscreen before heading outdoors. Knowing how to apply sunscreen and how much to use is crucial for ensuring your skin is properly protected to help prevent sun damage.

Remember to reapply sunscreen every two hours, and immediately after sweating, swimming and towel drying.
