No: Prevent w/ sunscreen.Irecommend a broad-spectrum sunscreen offering protection against both uva and uvb rays.Usually, at least three active ingredients are called for.These generally include paba derivatives, salicylates, and/or cinnamates for uvb absorption;benzophenones for shorter-wavelength uva protection;and avobenzone, ecamsule, and titanium dioxide, or zinc oxide for the remaining uva spectrum.
