July 10, 2016 DealDash Reviews

Skin cancer might not be a fun subject to talk about, but since we are in the thick of summer it’s an important thing to think about.

By this time everyone know that going outside in the hot summer sun without any kind of SPF sunscreen or protective clothing such as a hat or sunglasses is not a good idea. Sometimes we need a little reminder, though, so here is yours:
