The Rio Grande Valley’s warm climate makes it a tropical paradise, but the bright sunshine can also be detrimental to your skin. Summer will be here before you know it and it’s important to protect your skin from the sun’s harmful rays. Be sure to apply a generous amount of sunscreen with an SPF of at least 15. Stay in the shade or use the sunny weather as an excuse to showcase a new accessory and invest in a beautiful wide-brimmed hat or flowy outerwear to match your swimsuit.
