I like to go to the beach, and LOVE the sun. I know that it is bad and can cause pre-mature aging, like wrinkles and crows feet. What can I do to prevent the wrinkles and discolored skin when I go outside and into the summer sun? And I’m not a huge fan of the ‘wear sunglasses when you tan’ thing. Doesn’t it make those hideous sunglasses-print on your skin so you have pale skin where your sunglasses used to be? HELP!

How long does it take sun damage on the skin to surface?

I was told that most of us have sun damage (example: freckles) that we can’t see with the naked eye. If you go into a dark room and put a black light next to your face, you can see some freckles on your skin that you don’t see in regular light. Will that skin damage/freckles eventually appear on the skin to the naked eye? How long does that take? I am a sunblock goddess now to prevent some aging, but when I was a kid, that wasn’t the case. I am just wondering how long it will be before I skin that skin damage.
