What about protecting your hands from the sun?

does anyone use Norwegian Formula Age Shield to protect ur hands from aging and UVA and UVB rays?

Gloves in bright sun conditions in Alpine type snow covered areas, and any spare bit of your high SPF sun cream on the backs of your hands otherwise in any high to super-intense rare bouts of our summer sun here in the UK. You can buy the special hand gels, creams or sticks to apply too as well if you so prefer - including of course some designed specifically double use for both protection from the sun damage to skin, and too protection from the height of the summertime insect season; with an SPF and an anti-insect factor included in the mix of ingedients there.Aloe Kote stuff is very good in the little tins, available from many outdoors stores here in Britain or online too. So to is just any old high SPF cream meant for extended use in the outdoors, or on the beach where contact with water is highly likely. They are the tougher application more longer lasting sunscreen creams types, that do not wash off and sweat off of your skin once applied quite so easily. Basic cheap suntan lotion stuff from the chemists is not designed to last on your skin as long. It just is not apparentlly at all as well formulated, I was reading online in an article just the other month.I guess here it is just basically again the plain simple straightforward case of you getting what you pay for!

Don't particularly use Norwegian Shield, but often cream up my hands, practically always if I'm sea kayaking on a nice day.

Nature23 "works with Neutrogena", and who makes Norwegian Formula Age Shield ....??

Ah well, in that case... how about coming up with a Factor 50 sun block that I can use on my hands, that won't get easily wipes or sweated away, and will provide the moisteuriser effectiveness of the neutrogena stuff the Norwegian fisherman used to use in that advert?

thats cool Pete...well i like to use Norwegian Formula Age Shield because of its helioplex technology which gives it its strong UVA and UVB protection...

Actually it did start with Norwegian Fisherman...becasue of the harsh wheather conditions they faced but Neutrogena's Norwegian Formula Age Shield hes the helioplex technology which gives it its strong UVA and UVB protection...only a small amount would be enough to use for the whole day

"strong UVA and UVB protection" - how strong? I don't have any pigment on my hands - they burn very swiftly in gentle sunshine.
