Which is better for covering up during a sunny day, light or dark clothes? Also, is there a danger from tanning sprays rather than tanning beds?

Hi lybrate-user for covering your body you must wear light clothes during summers or whenever you step out of sun. Light coloured clothes absorb less heat and prevent tanning also. Always apply an spf 50 sunscreen, preferably gel based while going out in sun which would prevent tanning. If you had already tanned your skin you should use spf 30 during night time before going to bed. For further medication and tips contact.
