Without proper SPF application, one area can be left feeling painful and itchy if exposed to UV rays
Experts of a major sunscreen brand are warning sun worshipers to apply it liberally to one body part that's easily forgotten. The links between sun exposure and skin cancer are well-known, so it's important to make sure all areas are covered in SPF before basking in the rays.
Luckily, Abi Cleeve, Managing Director of sunscreen brand Ultrasun UK, has shared the best way to apply SPF to your scalp and what types to use if you want to keep your hair looking clean and shiny while being fully protected. The specialist has partnered with LookFantastic to spread awareness, which stocks sunscreen products to suit all types.
As reported by Wales Online, Abi said: "The scalp is particularly sensitive where there is hair loss, partings, thinning or along the hairline where our scalp is more exposed, leading to both UV damage and an increased risk of skin cancer in this area. Top Trending Stories Today "Any part of your skin exposed to the sun can burn. The scalp is an extension of our facial skin and requires protection and nourishment in the same way. In fact, the scalp is particularly vulnerable as it is so often exposed without protection. Furthermore, our scalp is perpendicular to the sun and therefore exposed to a lot of UV rays."

Common mental health disorders in adults with inflammatory skin conditions: nationwide population-based matched cohort studies in the UK - BMC MedicineBackground Psoriasis and atopic eczema are common inflammatory skin diseases. Existing research has identified increased risks of common mental disorders (anxiety, depression) in people with eczema and psoriasis; however, explanations for the associations remain unclear. We aimed to establish the risk factors for mental illness in those with eczema or psoriasis and identify the population groups most at risk. Methods We used routinely collected data from the UK Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD) GOLD. Adults registered with a general practice in CPRD (1997–2019) were eligible for inclusion. Individuals with eczema/psoriasis were matched (age, sex, practice) to up to five adults without eczema/psoriasis. We used Cox regression to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for hazards of anxiety or depression in people with eczema/psoriasis compared to people without. We adjusted for known confounders (deprivation, asthma [eczema], psoriatic arthritis [psoriasis], Charlson comorbidity index, calendar period) and potential mediators (harmful alcohol use, body mass index [BMI], smoking status, and, in eczema only, sleep quality [insomnia diagnoses, specific sleep problem medications] and high-dose oral glucocorticoids). Results We identified two cohorts with and without eczema (1,032,782, matched to 4,990,125 without), and with and without psoriasis (366,884, matched to 1,834,330 without). Sleep quality was imbalanced in the eczema cohorts, twice as many people with eczema had evidence of poor sleep at baseline than those without eczema, including over 20% of those with severe eczema. After adjusting for potential confounders and mediators, eczema and psoriasis were associated with anxiety (adjusted HR [95% CI]: eczema 1.14 [1.13–1.16], psoriasis 1.17 [1.15–1.19]) and depression (adjusted HR [95% CI]: eczema 1.11 [1.1–1.12], psoriasis 1.21 [1.19–1.22]). However, we found evidence that these increased hazards are unlikely to be constant over
