Why You Should Lather on that Sunscreen When Traveling to Mexico

Mexico Expo reminds travelers that they may be underestimating the sun's strength when on business travel to Mexico. Even if you're not visiting Cancun, take extra caution with your skin as you may still receive more exposure to the sun than you're used to.

The amount of sun travelers receive, "in Mexico is almost certainly more than you normally receive, for three different reasons. Numero uno... you will probably be spending more time outdoors while on vacation in Mexico than you normally do at home. Numero dos...even if you spend a fair amount of time outdoors at home, the sun exposure you get is probably not tropical sun. The sun becomes more intense as you head towards the equator, and most of Mexico is in the tropics. Numero tres...is our friend Mr. Reflection. Sun reflecting off the sand and off the water can double the amount of sun you are exposed to, making the need for adequate sunscreen even more important."

Even if you're not planning to be on the beach, remember to keep your travels to Mexico a seamless one & lather up on that sunscreen when traveling to sunny places.
