It is very important to always use a sunscreen on the slopes as the sun's UV rays become much more intense at altitude even in foggy conditions and are 80% more intense when reflected by snow and ice.
The nose, forehead, ears and neck are especially sensitive to wind, cold dry air and intense sun and are therefore much more susceptible to dehydration and burning.
Make sure you use a water-resistant sunscreen product as this will guarantee protection through rain, snow and even sweat caused by such physical activity.
the sun mousse™ with Proderm Technology®
is designed to not only protect your skin from the intense, damaging effects
of UV radiation at altitude but also to protect your skin from the extreme
environmental conditions associated with winter sports such as skiing and
snowboarding.
